Hey all :) creator here (and yes, you can reach me at linus@heyyyyyyyyyyyy.com). Was talking with a friend last night and I bought this domain on a whim because I thought it would be funny. And then spent a couple hours making this landing page and it's since turned into this elaborate joke. Hope it added something to your day~ haha

Aw, you missed a great opportunity! I would've loved a "Hey Hey Heyyyyyyyyyyyy.com" [1] [1] https://youtu.be/Zw6T4Db7_7o?t=29

I actually didn't realize it was a joke until reading the HN thread lol. I like it!

If I may make a suggestion, redirect the Rickroll link through a "/reserve" link on your site so it's not immediately obvious on mouse hover.
I saw on hover where it would lead to, but I clicked anyway because the site deserved it. I listened to the whole song.

I like this parody, but I don’t understand what you are saying about Hey’s original marketing. What’s particularly arrogant about product designers saying they’ve identified and solved a problem? Here’s what they originally put up, for reference: http://web.archive.org/web/20200207101953/https://www.hey.co...
I don't think email is broken for everybody. Maybe so for Jason Fried and other popular techies who get so much email because they are public figures. Not for my family and friends. So when I read their pitch, I see another locked in platform à la Slack. The tone is quite pretentious too. Sounds more like a pitch from a clique leader to join them. That's what bothers me I guess.
[Reserve Now] (31/200 left in stock) Considering the activity of HN users, I found these numbers highly suspicious. (But a good try anyway.) I wonder what is the best number for tempting a click. Maybe you should increase these as the site popularity grows?
You can try reserving one and seeing if the number decreases.

I was hoping the YouTube link was to the He-Man Heya video instead: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZ5LpwO-An4&t=10s
This is pretty great. I think DHH will get a kick out of it. My favorite parody site made fun of web frameworks and called them "crystal node grunt gems for ninjas". The whole website was genius, but I can't seem to find it anymore. :( Does anybody else have any more parody sites? (Or know the one I'm referring to?)

The one below your suggestion is concerning..
Yeah this is the edgy far-right hiding behind "free speach"
