Does the typical snapchat user hang out on HN? When I think of snapchats core audience I think 18 year olds who are "super social" and care a lot about fashion and "new stuff".

Not saying it can't overlap, but still.

Yes. To the average person I know who looks at HN, their first reaction is "EW what's wrong with this webpage, it's gross!" this even includes some devs I've met...

Their audience still has tons of 20-somethings [0], and a lot of topics on HN are catered toward startups, which are (like it or not) biased toward 20- and 30-somethings.

Yeah but "20-something" is really not a group, I know LOADS of 20-something people. Many of them use snapchat but none of them use HN.
