#12That is not what “crypto” means.
Language isn't prescriptive, get over it.

It doesn't mean cryptography either, it just means hidden.

#14It would be really great to be able to login 1) save stuff and 2) discuss articles. It doesn't even need to be threaded or have voting at first.

#15One of the reasons I love Hacker News is because of the high quality of content and discussion. Looking like HN is nice but the fact that your top post includes a nice little "(((bankers)))" remark from /u/BigNuts881 was a rough reminder that this isn't to be a much better than just looking through the results of a broad Twitter search.

#16Any plans to add a comment system? Edit: I'm excited by the idea of a crypto focused HN-ish site, I'd love if there was a comment system :)
I thought that was Reddit is for. The /r/Cryptocurrency subreddit exactly serves this purpose.

That is a good part of Hacker News, but I'd suspect if it's like any other community site maybe 10% of people bother reading comments and 1% bother to make them. There's plenty of room catering for the 90% who just want the links Drudge-style, and kicking off a community that actually has discussions is super hard work.

#18I can't open the links for the original posts, is this happening with you all as well?

#19I can't middleclick links. Unusable for me.
Also, please don't attach /?sort=new (or remove it) to reddit threads. It overrides the user's sorting.
