Did it ever occur to you that perhaps people didn't appreciate such a dismissive, and aggressive attitude?

You likely got downvoted/flagged here (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49140552) because it is disproportionately aggro and against HN guidelines.

Also you can't do the "this used to be an actual place where posts meant something" bit when your account is 3 months old.

Posted my (not startup) project on here, instantly got 6 emails from bots trying to sell me things!
