From the HN guidelines:
Please don't submit comments complaining that a submission is inappropriate for the site. If you think a story is spam or off-topic, flag it by clicking on its "flag" link. (Not all users will see this; there is a karma threshold.) If you think a comment is egregious, click on its timestamp to go to its page, then click "flag" at the top.
Also:
Please resist commenting about being downvoted. It never does any good, and it makes boring reading.

- MrBra 10y ago> Please don't submit comments complaining that a submission is inappropriate for the site. I never did. I was just questioning on the popularity it got on HN, not on it being inappropriate. > Please resist commenting about being downvoted. Ok, I apologize for that. My mistake. But hey, may I know the reasons why do you think that my opinion is wrong, anyone, and specifically you @cskau, if you do? Eagerly waiting for it but I fear I'll receive no on-context answers :(
- mcbits 10y agoI will speculate: 1. JavaScript is widely known and used. Thus, anything JavaScript attracts more attention than similar projects in other languages, especially if it's outside the box of the usual webby stuff. 2. The API on this library looks very intuitive and utilitarian. It doesn't get much easier than .people(), .topics(), etc. People can see themselves actually using this.
- MrBra 10y agoThanks, you confirmed my theory! :)
