Would you like more of the front page to be people lobbing vague allegations at YC funded companies? The only reason it isn't flagged to death is because they make a point of staying out of YC stuff, it's definitely not front page material.

- dtornabene 3y agothe idea that this forum "makes a point of staying out of YC stuff" is absurd, aside from the money, this site literally advertises for YC companies, on top of many other examples.

- dtornabene 3y agoReading these its quite obvious that they do, in fact, moderate on behalf of YC companies, they just proclaim that its "less, not more", which is utterly meaningless without examples or explicit rules and given that dang himself or someone he reports to or reports to him literally edited configs for the webserver so that the referrer headers on urls to asahi linux would evade a soft block, I'm kind of at a loss as to why I should believe them. Its bizarre and embarrassing that people are giving them a charitable read on this.
