/r/startups - a Reddit for startups (reddit.com)

Last I checked it's called Hacker News.


Which is of course ironic given how vocal HN users are about not wanting this site to turn into Reddit.

Then again, Reddit won't let anyone log in right now so your up-votes could be from Reddit users seeking refuge. ;)


Yup..in emergency mode they are...which is a shame as there's quite an interesting thread on there at the moment (only 1 x interesting thread mind you)


1. HN is the reddit of startups

2. I'm subscribed to that reddit and it's pretty dead...there are like 1-2 new submissions a day


Bit of a shame that this gets posted here right in the middle of a major Reddit outage. (Yeah, you can see the site now, but logins still aren't up.)


Hey, that's my subreddit. Does anyone want to be a moderator? I don't check it very often.


I'm chime on reddit. I mod /video also. You can add me as a mod for /startups once reddit comes back up.


Nice idea. I can certainly help mod it if you need it, but I think that it is somewhat without purpose, since the startup folk hangout on HN.

Maybe a Crosspost script?


Completely without purpose. I just picked the keyword to test out the subreddit functionality, and years later it has 2000 subscribers.


I can help out same username on both.



Not sure i agree with the name "All your startup are belong to us" ??


This site is literally brand new and it's a tmp domain. Wasn't intended for public consumption yet :)

The phrase is a reference to all your base are belong to us.

If anyone is interested in helping though, please let me know.


I'd love to help out if you still need people


Remember when Reddit _was_ about startups (pre-HN)?

It's good to see them coming back around. :)


Remember when HN was called Startup News?


Strange, there were no posts complaining how reddit is turning into HN. What would be reddit's equivalent of erlang articles?


Lolcats, last time I checked.


What's the USP....?
