I thought one day in the hn TOP-5 was more than enough for MinIO.
I'm even starting to wonder, should we also drop Docker builds to get the same amount of PR for our open-source project.

Well some say 'all publicity is good publicity', I think in this case it has hurt MinIO more than anything as far as public adoption is concerned.
I believe it's too early to judge public adoption. Let's see in a few years if it degrades somehow. For now, they jumped from 55,880 to 56,319 GitHub stars in one day.
From the product side, I don't see how this should affect new adopters who didn't read the hn post yesterday
GitHub stars are useless metric.

Pure anecdata: the fact that this is happening at all has us (at work) looking for alternatives. Once we finalize on the best one we'll swap out MinIO permanently. I can't imagine we're the only ones, but who knows?
