Those people should at least bother to learn HN rules then, because some of these comments are... yeesh.

That said, how mad can you be about some username that you'd sign up for an extra account just to complain?

They may also just be new here, spreading news to HN

Then my advice about sticking to a dignified tone and knowing the rules still applies. Happy to have more people sharing but there's a reason HN isn't the same vibe as Reddit.

And there's also a reason lobsters isn't the same vibe as HN.

as far as I can tell it's supposed to be basically a clone of HN (it has many of the same posts as well), but more exclusive (invite only) and more strict moderation with all of the moderator actions logged publicly.
