Looking for pragmatic hackers at various experience levels who are interested in solving hard problems in an entrepreneurial environment.

"Please do not post recruiting firms or job boards."

Looks to me like these companies happen to use the same service to post their jobs. Not that the comment is advertising a JobBoard or Recruiting service.

Would it be better for each company to post an individual comment with the link to their JobPost instead?

Agreed -- but I posted similar posts for https://www.wfh.io and I was always told not to (and subsequently down voted).
