I wanted an invite as well but it's comparatively quiet there. Don't see the point of an account there.
- ColinWright 13y agoIt's not just for people who are banned from HN. Most who get banned from HN would not get an invite. A glance at the front page shows it to be generally quieter and much more technically oriented. HN is now much broader - look at the front page and only half the items are actually technical, and probably less than half are, to quote PG's aim, "deeply interesting." Also, Lobste.rs has tags, which increases its relevance substantially.
