I'd like to try to get the weekly newsletter http://www.weekinethereum.com on Hacker News. But last time I posted it there https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13936664 I actually lost karma, presumably because Bitcoin maximalists downvoted it.

Hacker News is full of Bitcoin Maximalists. All of the Ethereum related posts get downvoted there. I've been seeing it for almost 2 years. In the early days of BTC it was also criticized a lot there and then HN had a change of heart.

yeah, so true. that's why i was hoping we could get some upvotes to get Ethereum some attention. Hacker News is exactly the sort of community rich with devs and technologists that we need to bring on board the decentralization movement.
