Basically, I stopped trusting them ever since.

That actually looks like forcing their view, censoring you just because they might not like your position. Useful, you cannot do a thing. Your comment is simply gone. I might wanted to save it, but it’s no longer. Yet, they did not bother t

You cited your sources, but they are flagged and removed :) Because dang them, right?

Why I’m not surprised you’re downvoted to hell? Yet your post provides plenty of evidence for those who happen to not know all this for some reason.

What makes HN work is being popular. Nothing more. Stop praising mediocrity.

Cool idea, nice implementation. Also downloaded your app, will try using. Would love to find some contact for feedback, if you please. Not too comfortable writing it right here, without proper formatting and media. A few comments that can b

Ah, thank you sir. I’ve been battling with that intense itch to say about all-lowercase long text, but then I realised that maybe that text just isn’t intended to be read by someone else, after all. Or it’s something closer to ‘I’m doing it

I second this, and want to highlight that only recently I learned about this similar project called netbird. I tried it, and it looks and works very similarly from the first glance. However, Magic DNS like feature did not work for me, for s

I used to do exactly the same before. However, at this time I’m just having a backup (old SE) phone till I’ll get the replacement. Because, economically it’s much cheaper, plus I don’t need to bother with the new phone. If I’m being too wor

How do you manage your life without a laptop? Do you never travel? It’s so hard for me to go somewhere without taking my laptop. I’m even seeking the lightest possible laptop with Linux, so I’d have it most times. Eyeing MacBook Air 11” or

I thought the same way, some years ago. I even eyed that one Nokia smartphone with keyboard, you can install Linux onto. (For nvim!) But over time, I just learned how to use swipe keyboard, and so my iPhone writing is pretty fast. If I’m fe

You’re welcome! Ha, yeah, your Kirby example makes sense. I lived in Belarus, and never thought of using their domain that way. But it looks good in this example. Possibly that’s because nobody of its (Russian speaking) population would use

I was being sarcastic, but actually I durst to open the link from my iPhone, realising it’s a more powerful computer than most Internet users have.

Why would they buy a by domain? Solely for the name? Off-topic, but I believe that might be interesting to some readers: FYI Belorussia is a non-state. That’s how Russians call Belarus. Belarus is the official and correct name, the origins

I feel you guys, but do you read and write here from your laptops? I never come here from a desktop browser, only a smartphone.

But … that way phones would get obsolete much faster, and so you’d be able to buy an obsolete sluggish Pixel of two years old, and install something different on it! Like Lineage, Graphene, Postmarket.

Would love to read some blog about that, just in case you have.

I would be sceptical to this initiative too, as they never mentioned in their timeline on the co maps website that the reason the original Maps with me project was forked because the original one was sold. And not just sold, but sold to Rus

I’m finding all these awesome attempts at making hacker news better as destined to fail. Just as you’re making a reader for things not worth reading. Actually, I enjoy this mediocre UX, it reminds me to not waste too much of my precious tim

So, I guess that’s a pretty awesome business plan. Establish some open source entity, let the community develop everything for you, sell the entity, then fork it, let the community develop everything for you, sell again, then fork it, let t

Hey, it’s Microsoft, why would you expect otherwise?

That was so useless and the style was so bad, I’m pretty sure it was written with (if not by) LLMs. Not even sure if I’m disappointed finding this low effort content here, or rather not surprised at all. I wish the content here would be mor

I never thought of this, the excessive mouse movements, like top left to bottom. What I thought of is that it killed this silly minimise and full screen option, even when everyone and their granny trained for those three buttons. I like the

Having to interact with them, even having to hide them, is forcing them upon me. I don’t understand a reason for them to exist. They’re simply useless to me and a sign of a complex design.

What you mean by Win 11/macOS? I see them as completely different from each other. Or are there some overlaps? Personally, I like modern Gnome: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43859753

I guess, those of us who actually like the idea should be more vocal. As otherwise the devs would read the comments and decide nobody likes what they do. Personally, I’m super happy about current Gnome. Coming after 10+ years of macOS. I do

It took me many years to accept Unix logic (macOS and Linux) too, but mostly because my first system was Windows. For some reason, things like disks, C:\ and D:\ were logical to me, while I couldn’t grasp why cannot I put my files into root

What you mean by sysadmin GUI things? Linux is so much simpler, you don’t need any GUI to configure it. And probably there’s no point in that. Actually, there is a way to configure it using code (see Ansible), which is better (I’d say). I b
