#2I have been following it since a week and is awesome to see how it evolves.. PR after PR it's getting better.
Yesterday used it to just wireframe a small feature.
Awesome project!

#6It was amazing to see the rapid progress on Excalidraw, all fueled by open source contributions but organized by Christopher. So cool to see what enthusiastic devs can hack together in short order

#10In the future, would be great if outsiders wouldn't try to influence what gets to the frontpage of Hacker News. Here is the author of this project trying to push people to upvote: https://twitter.com/Vjeux/status/1219340291603230721
I'm pretty sure I have read somewhere on HN that people should not ask for upvotes. Here is a example of just that happening.
If more people flag the submission, it'll eventually get removed from the frontpage.
Edit: annoyingly, the author (vjeux) seems to have deleted the tweet by now (not sure what the accomplishes?) and I took no archive of it. Life goes on
