i wonder why they wanted it shut down.

there are a few alternate frontends to hackernews. technically this would be no different.

likewise linking to hackernews discussions should also be ok.

maybe an issue with load on the site if this becomes to popular?

Because it doesn't scale.

But I thought we were meant to do things that don't scale?

Hacker news is meant to be a news discussion site focused at a particular crowd, not a bastardized website comment section.

It actively ruins the experience here by allowing content that doesn’t originate from this website.

A changed UI and making the site a “feature” of another site are not the same thing.
