Hacker News with Generative AI: Community

Brood War Korean Translations (sourcedive.net)
As work slowed down during the last couple of weeks of 2024, I decided to redirect some of my energy to hobbies instead of work. One such hobby is StarCraft: Brood War (or BW for short), a classic, highly competitive RTS from '98 that still has an active community today.

Show HN: I built a fair alternative to Product Hunt for indie makers (ycombinator.com)
I’m an indie maker, just like many of you. A few months back, I launched a product on one of the big platforms, and... nothing. It got buried under dozens of other launches within hours. All that work, all that excitement is gone in the blink of an eye. No one even saw it.

Matt Mullenweg: What drama should I create in 2025? (reddit.com)
I’m very open to suggestions. Should we stop naming releases after jazz musicians and name them after Drake lyrics? Eliminate all dashboard notices? Take over any plugins into core? Change from blue to purple?

I'm curious about how the community operates, how much of the engagement is genuine, and whether there are any bots or automation in discussions. I'd love to hear insights from those who've been part of this community for a while!

FreePBX is being destroyed by the current owners, and it's disheartening (reddit.com)
As the official forums are slowly being dismantled by the so-called open-source advocate, I encourage everyone to seek alternative methods of community support, such as this platform. For those who may not be aware, the latest escalation includes the banning of Tony Lewis and demands for partners and other users to remove content Sangoma finds objectionable.
