Thanks for what?

This is the way of the world. Unaccountable mega-corporations, the feudal lords of the modern world.

Could you please stop posting unsubstantive/indignant comments and flamebait? You've unfortunately been doing it repeatedly. It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for.

I know there is much to be indignant about, but it kills the curious conversation that this site exists for, and that only makes everything worse. No one is saying you owe unaccountable mega-corporations better, but you owe this community better if you're participating in it.

If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.

Not sure this site is a support forum for Meta either....

Yeah, the cloud-feudalism/techno-feudalism isn't much different to old feudalisms. The lord can change their mind about what us serfs are allowed or not allowed to do in their realm, and we have little to no recourse, their henchmen can refuse us access and take all our belongings.

Huh, interestingly, a particular superpower has also become very feudal the last half year.

HN is the support contact of last resort. Occasionally you can resolve an unresolvable problem by posting it here. Especially when there's enough outrage or some CEO happens to browse or one of the higher position people usually does damage control PR here.

Half of people here work at said mega-corporations, I think.

And a lot of the other half want to grow their idea into their own mega-corp. This is YC after all.
