I'm curious as to what deficiencies reddit has that made you choose to create a site like this. In other words, what features would reddit need to make you think that reddit solves the problem sufficiently?

Well there's /r/technology and /r/programming, etc. Why do you visit HN?

HN has different technology that allows for unique moderation that creates a different community.

I didnt come up with that tagline, this was submitted by someone else. But.. for the full answer, see the FAQ (question #2 and #3): http://pineapple.io/faq I apologize in advance for the typos, it was really long programming day when I wrote that part of the FAQ. I just noticed them now.

Well, reddit just isn't meant for searching by topic and finding a list of resources. Aside from the obvious thing like it's not focused on news/updates type reading.. it allows you to very quickly find a set of tools. Try googling 'web design tools' and youll see it's kind of a pain. Try finding that on reddit and you may find a few threads on the subject but what if you want it for a specific language?
