News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

I think it's reasonable to ask, but unreasonable and unrealistic to expect someone to come tell their story just for you. Even if you (and others) have never seen this before.

What you could do is plug "Asahi Linux targeted" in to any search engine and read as much as you like. It's not like this is very new either, this mess has been going on for years now.

As usual, it's also your average internet mud-flinging contest, but at the core the issue of harassment stands, and shining a light on it regardless of the actors is always a good idea.

'Asahi Linux targeted "hacker news"' got no results other than this exact conversation.

That's why I wrote "Asahi Linux targeted". The results cannot be linked here as the contents would violate the guidelines.

You are claiming that asahi Linux has been harassed on hacker news. There appears to be no evidence of this.

They are explicitly* asking us to take action--the onus is on them to explain to us why we should take action. They have not, so no action will happen. It's as simple as that. We aren't the ones asking for something to be done here.

Kiwi Farms is a terrible website that does terrible things. What does that have to do with us? Barring any explanation from them, my conclusion is that it doesn't have anything to do with us.
