Genuinely curious, because I feel like I'm missing something - the owner is apparently disillusioned by nobody caring, but why were people supposed to care in the first place?
If only. Like religion there are many sects of trolls. Including:
* Stupid trolls
* Sexist trolls
* Racist trolls
* Homophobic trolls
* Yo mama trolls
* Anal sphincter trolls
* and random specific trolls too many to mention
There's not enough space in my headspace for all that anymore.
Is the owner saying the site is closing down, or something else.
Seems like a nice idea, but maintaining a site like that probably is a ball-ache, definitely want to find some users that are really into a site like that so you can delegate some moderation.
It seems like a person who is not really technically trained. He got a good sounding domain and a bit of popularity and battled through trolls all these years - then popularity (and questionable usefulness) faded, the joy/stress ratio quickly became not worth it.
I get that this person must be stressed, but this decision does not have much useful morale. A bit like this HN post - catchy name, but not much substance.
I never had heard of this before lol and 5 minutes ago wondered where it was at so I searched it up and found this. For what it matters I'm sorry people are like that. Posting on Febuary 25th 2023 at 7:28 EST from NE Ohio

Sites like this will be just a memory.

Was there only one car?
Thank you!
