Every time Mozilla is on here people go crazy.

And they wrote their comment using Chrome or some skin. Which they have used for a decade. Because the button on the left seemed off on Firefox compared to Chrome (always something). So fuck Firefox.

On hacker news.

Crazy.

> On hacker news.

You have the wrong expectations toward HN :) It's a lot less frustrating if you correct them.

It's the community forum for a US-based, web-heavy startup accelerator, not a "hacker's corner" in terms of the original scene. The priorities and values and interests do differ.

[bergheim]

Agreed. These who would rather use a browser from an Orwellian company are not hackers. They are tools.

[raytopia]

Are there any forums more focused on being a "hacker's corner"?

[rchaud]

Stack Overflow. Not a 'forum' per se but is otherwise built around the discussion of browser hacks.

[dylan604]

alt.hackers or something like that maybe? IYKYK

[owebmaster]

lobste.rs is way more hacker and technical.

[rchaud]

More than half of its front page is identical to HN's.

[owebmaster]

Only when the front page is full of technical content. There you don't see posts like:

- Elon Musk's SpaceX Allows Investment from China

- We're Still Not Done with Jesus

- Angelina Jolie Was Right About Computers

They're also little shitfucks who ban my freaking browser.

Sent one to the email in your HN profile. Cheers!

I think such types are frustrated because they have enough domain specific knowledge to know the basics of how to fix their pet hate. But realise they will never have the motivation, skill and dedication required to follow through.

This time it is justified, because web apps have been working in Chrome since 2015.
