With a different registrar to ycombinator.com, this is likely not owned by Y Combinator, and therefore difficult to trust that it won't start being malicious in the future.
It's owned by YC now. We got it earlier this year. That's why it redirects to HN!

Shouldn't news.ycombinator.com redirect to hackernews.com instead?

It's convenient, but I've developed muscle memory to just type news.ycombinator over the last 10 years, so I guess it doesn't matter much for me. When I first discovered the site, I definitely had to google 'hacker news' in order to find it consistently, however, so maybe someone else can get good use out of it.
Sometimes I think I am the only person left in the world who still uses the "Bookmarks" feature of my web browser.
There's another website named hacker news ( https://thehackernews.com ), more focused on the security realm. Every time I mention this site, my colleagues in security think I mean that other one. That one's nothing special though.
I think the new domain will help recognition of this site. I hope the old one will remain the primary though! Though I'm kinda happy if HN doesn't grow too huge. If it becomes the new reddit I won't want to be here anymore.
i, and i think others, would be super interested to see how the community has grown over the last.. however many years i’ve been here!
