Tell HN: Thank you for 12 fantastic years together

10 points by erikstarck ↗ HN
I just noticed I've been on HN since May 2009.

That's 12 years!

During that time I've done 2 startups (one failed, one I'm currently working with), became a father to 2 daughters, got married, got divorced and for a brief period I even ran a Swedish version of Hacker News with its own Youtube channel!

I have probably read HN every day for those 12 years. In fact, many times per day.

I still find new fascinating articles and learn new stuff from what's posted here, including the comments. No, make that: _especially_ the comments. That's rare from a site like this. As you can see from my karma, I'm not an active poster or commenter myself, but I highly enjoy reading what you all post here.

Since you obviously is a big part of my life and bring so much value to me, I just wanted to say a big THANK YOU to the HN community. Looking forward to another 12 years together with you!

Karma to you all,

erikstarck

I’m really happy to hear that.

Honestly hackernews has been a treasure full of knowledge for me and I wanna thank all the people who actively contribute to this platform by sharing and actively engaging in discussions
