Normal conversations by topic enthusiasts usually have fun stuff hidden in their profiles and at times lead to fun rabbit holes where you endlessly learn and somehow, forgot that you were initially browsing HN.

These are people already trying to divert the discussion off-site for their benefit. Very few would honestly report any resulting transaction for the cut to be taken from.

[yeah, it did see the sarcasm tag, just clarifying to put off would be entrepreneurs so we aren't inundated by show-hn posts from people vibe-coding the idea over the next few days!]
