Because we don’t want the site to be completely overwhelmed and turned into Reddit 2.0. Currently, invites are turned off, but are likely to be turned back on in the next week or so. Normally, they are pretty easy to get (asking for one in the r/tildes invite thread).
I've seen a few Tildes threads that I want to interact with, but I can't because I don't have an account
At first glance it looks like a nice place. Most other alternatives seem to turn into a right-wing hell-hole quite fast. So I understand the need to let new people slowly trickle in.

Are DMs possible on HN? I have about 9 invites on Tildes :-)
Hey! Sorry to drop in like this, but could you spare one invite for me too please? The community looks interesting and I'd also like to participate in some discussions but I haven't had any luck finding an invite (I missed the last reddit thread by a few hours)
Can drop it to [email protected], don't think HN has DMs.
Oh! Well now I wish they were
Feel free to send one to [email protected] though ;)
DMs aren't possible, but I sure wouldn't mind an invite sent to <my_username> at hotmail.com, if you still have one free.

If you still have some free, I would love one. Email is Stuck<HN_username> @ gmail
Could you shoot one to [email protected] please?
Hi, been a read-only lurker on Tildes posts for sometime now & liked it. Would be much interested in an invite. If you still have invites left, please shoot me one on mailto<username> @ gmail dot com (bWFpbHRvdGh1cnV2QGdtYWlsLmNvbQ==)
Worked great for Google+!
