Hey, I just discovered this HN chat room.

How is everyone? Is Zuckerberg really a robot?

I love the idea, then I think about it a bit more and the value I see on HN is that almost all information is accessible. Would not want a discord like experience.

I get we also want a human connection, but if you really need a human, maybe let’s have HN meetups. It takes more efforts ao people will do it less, but it means conversations will continue to happen here, publicly.

    That’s like speed chess vs chess by mail.

    They are nothing like each other.

i may build it to put it in my portfolio to get a job, but what makes ppl use it ?

    Do a Show HN post when it’s live.

    And a few more :).

    Care about it. Be a good host.

      you didn't answer the question: why makes ppl use it ? fun ? or share knowledge/opportunities ?

        He did. "Care about it. Be a good host" is why people use the application vs. yet another soulless experience.
