Awesome, thanks for listening to feedback and implementing this feature.

One question though, is there a big uptick in Show HN posts today or is something wrong with the HN RSS feed? Just noticed a full page of Show HN posts on the feed and was curious if it was organic or maybe a bug.

Great work! I love when organic user behaviors are recognized and made first class features. Allow me to emphasize something from the Show HN Guidelines[1]: > Be respectful. Anyone sharing creative work is making a contribution, however modest. > Ask questions out of curiosity. Don't cross-examine. > Instead of "you're doing it wrong", suggest alternatives. When someone is learning, help them learn more. > When somet…

Something that's elsewhere in the guidelines is: pretend your talking to someone in person and think what you'd say. For me that strikes the right balance - I might find things I'm not enthusiastic about, but I'd weight my words carefully.

The comments on this post are perfect examples of why it's hard to predict what's going to take off and what won't. And also why it's sometimes a good idea to just give people the benefit of doubt.

These are awesome, are there more?

Nice to see you here! I don't mean to be rude, but how do you think it can impact Product Hunt?

I didn't take offense, lalwanivikas. The fact that you mentioned Product Hunt is more flattering, actually. As dang mentioned, there's room for both. The HN / PH communities are significantly different and will increasingly look dissimilar over time.

In what ways do you think the communities will diverge over time?

How will 'Show HN' differ from Product Hunt? Is PH going to become subset of Show HN?

Many posts on PH aren't submitted by the creator of what is being posted. The main idea behind Show HN posts is posting your own creations. The public here is also more tech oriented than in PH - more product oriented.
