Launch HN: Diversion (YC S22) – Cloud-Native Git Alternative

It's a pitch. The story has obviously been embellished and polished and condensed, ready public consumption. Being pedantic against it is not productive.

Politely disagree. It’s productive because hopefully future teams who launch on HN ask each other, “Is what we’re saying true?” during all those polishing and condensing sessions. If they don’t, the risk is crossing a line that damages the reputation of the team and undermines months if not years of hard work.

If the pitch is dishonest, why would I ever trust them with something as vital as my VCS? (And yes, "embellished" means dishonest)

That's a creative way to defend a dishonest pitch

This is not a pedantic criticism.
