I've never heard of dotty-the-language before this morning, but have been a long-time dotty user. I was hoping to help antialias the name collision for others.

On a different note: I've noticed that HN is starting by to develop the drive-by-I-disagree-voting that Reddit has. That's unfortunate.

I'm sure you meant well, but the way you phrased your post made it sound more dismissive about something you didn't care about than helpful. I think that's a far more likely explanation for the downvotes than "HN becoming more like Reddit".

On a reread, I see your point.
