Why so many (wrong) presumptions and anger over your own presumptions? HN has a largely technical audience. The "how" is the question here as that is what I was interested to hear from other people with a variety of experiences. Twitter was just an example which feels topical today and it also has an interesting problem to solve. It's much harder to scale a public town square than let's say the same volume of messages sent over WhatsApp where it's mostly 1:1 and some n:m conversations where n and m are relatively small numbers. Not looking to build a new Twitter, don't have the time or desire, but I find the how interesting nevertheless.
