  He wasn’t hated by anyone but competitors (who aren’t supposed to like you) and programmers, which is a good chunk of the HN crowd but like 1%+ of the general population.

    He's still hated by people who don't like Epstein Island. He left Microsoft under a cloud of sex-pest drama.

    He was hated by anyone who knew what he was up to and who wasn't directly profiting from it. Most people are completely clueless what's going on in the world of business and tech. Bill Gates set back the world at least 10 years of progress with his illegal and immoral business practices.
