It seems like you are pretty angry at me trying to get the notion across that this is good, but they could do better. That’s okay, I can deal with that.

But I want to make one thing clear: I’m not doing this for HN karma. I haven’t commented on here in years, and this article prompted a reaction. Trying to somehow shoehorn that into "you’re only doing this for points” is invalidating that in a way that I find troubling, because, really, how can I prove you wrong? I might just have an opinion on something and wanted to engage with a community about it, or I might not. Only I can tell (and you, apparently).

EDIT: Correction. I submitted two comments 2 months ago that I forgot about, the comments before that are from 2019.
