Just out of curiosity, why does this get modded so high? A tech company takes investor money, great! But is it truly hackerous?

- Caligula 18y agoXobni is a YC company.
- pmjordan 18y agoA number of users here are YC "alumni" and presumably know the Xobni guys in one way or another. Even non-YC people (myself included) enjoy reading stories like this. It's just nice to follow people's success stories, particularly when you can relate to those people, and in this case, when they're also Hacker News users.
- fallentimes 18y agoAny time a Hacker News startup (YC or otherwise) kicks ass, it makes everyone feel like one of their own succeeded. It's awesome.
