    Eh wasn't that big pre 1.0 and that was 2015. I feel like it was 2017 or 2018 before it was on my radar so much I needed to assess it for myself.

I have a tagging tool for HN and the more used tags are: big-tech, oss, cryptocurrency, dev-language... The only missing tags are "climate" and "entrepreneur". Edit: the perfect headline would be "How Facebook acquired my climate friendly cryptocurrency startup, rewrote it in rust and open sourced it".

  Mind showing/sharing it? I was thinking of doing some historical analysis on trending topics on HN.

  I thought this was funny and on point. How is this a sneer to you?

    Beside the guidelines, there's years of moderator explanations on this sort of thing, it comes up more or less weekly.
