Yep, you're right. I was curious about your project but as it hasn't launched yet and I wanted to make something on this weekend, that's what happened. I don't see a problem here to be honest. ;)

"that's what happened"
It didn't just happen - seems like you have intentionally copied someone else's idea, down to naming and design. You're obviously entitled to do so, but it's not something I would run bragging about on hn, especially without giving any credit the original work.
And saying "I don't see a problem here" after the original creator has pointed (quite gently) to the fact, is not very empathetic of you.

Well, I never indented to offend him or anyone else. I'm waiting for his app to launch and when it's great I'm gonna use it, that's it. But for the meantime, I build my own thing and as I mostly do, I set it free to others.

May very well be, but you sure could've choosen at least a different name. And a design of your own wouldn't have hurt.

It's a different misspelling of Portfolio, a dictionary word descriptive of what it is. I see no issues here.
