Couple of things to say to this.
First up, this is a technical solution to problem so it seems to fit with what you miss on the first place. But secondly, in the 10+ years I've been coming to this site almost daily it has never been "highly focused" in the way you describe -- it's always been about anything that piques one's intellectual curiosity.
But beyond that, being LGBTQIA+ is not a niche thing. Every workplace, classroom, and social circle I've ever been in has had LGBT members. Moreover it's not a "sexual lifestyle" it's simply a part of someone's existence.
Your comment is actually bordering on homophobia and that's something I personally hadn't expected to see on HN.
- klyrs 4y agoNot gonna reply to the dead comment, but I think it's worth noting that this particular posting is about a one-person startup. HN is centered on startup culture; this is clearly on-topic where more generic discussions about whatever subculture might not be. That said, it's pretty sad how much time this article spent flagged and how much subtle-to-blatant homo/transphobia even such a clearly on-topic posting picks up.
