A Hacker News Clone for Indie Blogs: Skeptical Take on This Show HN Gem
Scrolling a dead ringer for Hacker News, but packed with real bloggers—not VCs. This Show HN frontpage for personal blogs aims to spotlight the indie web. But after 20 years watching fads, I'm asking: who profits?
⚡ Key Takeaways
- Revives indie blogs with HN-style aggregation, surfacing overlooked gems like Simon Willison's CSP deep dive.
- Nostalgic nod to 2000s blogrolls, but risks single-point failure without open-sourcing.
- No clear money-maker yet—pure passion project in a profit-obsessed web.
