I've been here since 2008 and I'll say it. Vividfrier is a bot. The people behind the likes of vividfrier are vandals, shitting all over the commons just to get even more than the massive amount they have already been given.
HN was a tremendous resource built by its members and the moderators. In the last year or so a lot of that has been destroyed by people who have no sense of decency. They see deception as a virtue. They call it hustle or whatever. WTF?
Arguably, breaking out of comfy lurk just to pass a message can make the argument more compelling.
Focus on that message, not the messenger.

What is even the point of botting HN? Besides trolling what is it that they’re getting even more of?
To direct a whole industry towards where you want to.

The point of all of that is to become god, straight up unironically.
