Personally, I would love to see something like Lobsters [0] made general purpose. It's very HN like, but I love the ability to tags posts with multiple tags so that a single topic of conversation can belong to multiple subreddit-like c

What about development? You need to be able to compile to test feature implementation and bug fixes.

I'll add a +1 to this very issue. I likewise am not sure if it's still the case, but a few years ago I was looking into contributing some ES2015 implementations to the FF JS engine but couldn't get Firefox to compile based on

Great to see FF continue to progress. I moved back to FF from Chrome when I ditched a Win7 install for Ubuntu after building a new computer. It hasn't been without issue, but I'm enjoying FF and very happy to see it evolve. If it

I'm not surprised about the total rewrite at all. I've mentioned before about how reddit appears to only be hiring for Node.js and React. I am not enthusiastic about the redesign at all. From what I've seen so far, it will be

I get where bitL is coming from. I was just thinking about a compromise model: what if a retailer would deal with the send/return cost once as a bit of configuration and customer acquisition cost and profile the choices to a standard t

I very rarely load up reddit on mobile but did so this morning and noticed the exact same message and couldn't believe it. The selling feature they use for the mobile app on that message was that it was faster than the mobile site. I d
