People who might like a Lobsters invite should make their E-mail known in their profile. (Having some contact info in your HN profile is probably a good idea in general. I think the likelihood of spam is pretty low.)
A lobster invite would be nice. Thanks in advance.

#147Earlier quoted context omitted.
If you add your email to your profile I'll send you one
I like DN as well and browse it almost daily. However I'm not a designer. Is being a designer required for an invite?
Not as far as I know, If you're interested in the stuff that gets posted thats enough I think. Its obviously attached to layervault the PSD version control tool, and there are benefits to linking your account but that's it. Would you like an invite?

#148Simple python scraper for all the links:
import requests
import lxml.html
dom = lxml.html.fromstring(requests.get('https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7254884').content)
[x for x in dom.xpath('//a/@href') if '//' in x and 'ycombinator.com' not in x]

#149Reddit is my go to since there is a subreddit for almost any topic.
And shadow bans , and manipulated voting , and crazy mods , that somehow control 100s of subreddits. Seriously , take a look sometime at the mod accounts and notice how much of reddit is completely controlled by the same people.
The place is really controlled by mods not by the voting , the voting is an illusion and is easily manipulated. Ultimately the mods and admins have final say on what you see no matter what the vote count.
I am not a fan of reddit and hope for something better.
