Ask HN: Slinkset or not?

5 points by medianama 18y ago

What could be the potential disadvantages of choosing Slinkset to build a commercial consumer product... I've tried Pligg - It attracts too much SPAM and i couldn't figure a way to avoid it... I like Slinkset but not sure if its the right way to go, given that it is hosted and not completely flexible... Would you try build a business that's too dependent on a provider like Slinkset?

why not just host the reddit code yourself?

Spam is a problem in all systems. You'll have to deal with it somehow. Also try Drupal and modules.
