It's nice to see a meteor hack so early on. Meteor seems really awesome. But why does everyone these days try to copy Svbtle? Besides being a sleek blog design I see nothing that special that everyone is trying to copy. Svbtle is the new Bootsrap :-)

Svbtle cloning is the HN version of the Barbara Streisand effect.

It really just kind of ended up that way. I was gonna do a blog, for the fun of it (and because I've been playing with my own blog lately), and when I wanted to theme it, I just happened to be looking at the Obtvse source code, so I grabbed the styles.

I do think that Svbtle is gorgeous though, and there are way worse things to have ripped off, IMO.
