I didn't even think to check for comments in the page source, thank you.

But it's far from obvious. One of the cloned services listed is Pinterest. Have a look at these [1][2][3] sites. All three of them were made by Hungarian companies and [1] was financed by one of the largest media companies in the country[4]. So something like Zkombinator is not that big a step from what is already going on.

Sure, but still calling it "Zkombinator" is a bit on the nose.

On german keyboards the Y & Z are swapped around, so I guess that's where that bit came from. And kombinator is the German for combinator I guess.

I agree. It threw me in for a bit of a curve-ball.
