Well, if you're asking for opinions, I'll offer a few. I certainly appreciate having another option for focused tech aggregation, especially if the comments section is able to attract and retain high quality, well-informed commenters rather than redditors.

Stylistically, I think there's way too much white space on the front page. HN has spoiled me.

And if it's supposed to be a HW site that attracts good commenters, there's way, way too much intro level material on the top list right now. I was getting turned off by the several intro to FPGA links but intro to soldering made me close the page. Not that introductory material can't be there, but there is a very low cool stuff to introductory material ratio.

I like the idea a lot, and wish you luck. Hopefully I find it again in a few years and love it and eat my words.

+1, the information density needs to be majorly increased. My above-the-fold view on mobile only shows 2 stories. HN shows 7.

Appreciate the feedback!

I’ve reduced the font size for small screens so the post density should be higher.

Agree that learning to solder is on the basic side but I thought it would be nice to have some posts for complete beginners.

I would start off with catering to the people that already are well into advanced territory, beginners can learn from them by just reading and lurking. Starting off with beginner stuff will turn off the people that are way past that. Aiming for the right audience to start with is a major challenge in any kind of community, in my opinion you can't aim high enough for the starting few 100.
