Yes, it's absurd. But for most people paying this amount of money to get a single page of a newspaper on their wall for however long the screen and cloud service work is also absurd. Despite looking extremely cool, it's a pretty small group of people this is targeting.

Then let them have their fun? I’m not sure what the issue is here. Just seems like folks working on their tight 5 and announcing to everyone how shrewd they are for declaring how dumb they think this product is. Feels like I’m back on reddit already lol

The person you're replying to was just making a sensible observation that was relative to the conversation - I don't see any problem with what they said, nor relevance to Reddit's typical comments.

You on the other hand haven't added to the discussion but instead broke one of HN's guidelines:

> Please don't post comments saying that HN is turning into Reddit. It's a semi-noob illusion, as old as the hills.

Maybe worth checking the whole page out, then you can help keep HN comments as high quality as possible to avoid other people feeling the need to compare to Reddit! <3

Appreciate the input. And you’re right, I shouldn’t have made the Reddit jab. It’s as childish as what I’ve been seeing here.

We all make childish or otherwise foolish comments sometime (most of us probably quite often - I definitely do), worth trying not to as often as possible but no big deal slipping up :)
