Useful but slightly odd to have a call for donations along with zero ability to see who runs it, how to contact them, etc.
You mean having privacy? I thought HN crowd is all about privacy. Also donation, as in opposite of having a gun to your head to part you with your money.
It's not exactly a bizarre concept to want to know who you're donating money to.
I like the idea of the site, but yeah, the entire vibe around it throws me off - 4chan vocabulary (peasant/chad), call for donations in an obscure cryptocurrency, fully anonymous. Maybe I'm doing the site injustice, but it smells like being run by some 4chan/ancap/"don't tread on me" bro.

This looks like an awesome resource and site. I’d love to become a landchad. But my main concern is setting up (and relying upon) and email server which is flagged as spam or even unreceived by outlook, gmail servers etc. Is this still a valid concern? Are there ways around this to setup a server and get into gmail and Microsoft’s emails good books? I’d love to become non-reliant on gmail. If anyone could provide the…

I agree partly - but mostly it's ok to learn like that when someone else is paying for your time (parents, employer whatever).

But what about the technical content? Why are you so quick to jump to identities. And donations are the best way to give money - nothing is locked away and you get to choose. This style of site/information should be celebrated.
