Totally agree. I prefer Threes! myself but ultimately, the market determines what's fun. Grabriele has been so humble about his success and while I feel for the Threes! developers, they came across as exceptionally sore.
It seems like you are piling on just to pile on, not simply "pointing out the origin". There's already 52 matches for "Threes" on this submission. I think we get it. The author of has added credits to Threes. You won!
If this was your only comment, I wouldn't have said anything. But you have 5 (now 6!) separate comment chains going on about Threes. In addition to the other 5 top-level comments, and ~20 replies that talk about Threes. All saying the same stuff.
I didn't post any top level comments, I'm only correcting people who I see posting misinformation. Isn't the point of Hacker News for people to talk about things they have expertise in? This happens to be a situation I know a lot about since I was also a mobile puzzle game developer at the same time this happened.

No. Although that certainly can help, it's not the main point.
From the guidelines: "If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity."
Seeing the exact same thing posted about Threes in over half of the comments here is the opposite of gratifying one's intellectual curiosity. It's boring. Especially when the comment is just a slight rephrasing of a comment that's already been posted several times (or worse, solely a link to your own comment elsewhere in the submission).
Oh come on, you're not really going to claim that my comment where I linked to my other comment is the problem, vs the person who initially told me "Let it go, Matt.".
And for the record my initial comment was bringing up new information anyway, since I was the first and only person to point out that OP cloned 1024 rather than Threes directly.
Please don't do this. 13 comments on this is too much, and (as is typical) they've gotten progressively more off-topic and flamewarrish.
When people start arguing about what they did or didn't say, with swipes like "Oh come on," it's clear that curious conversation was left behind quite a while ago and it's time to stop.
I get why you'd want to get rid of this thread, but surely the problem was caused the much earlier comment from doppp that said "Let it go, Matt". From what I've seen in the past, you would usually remove that kind of personalized negative response, but not in this case?
I hear you, but different people draw the what-caused-it line completely differently—it basically always feels like the other person started it and did worse (https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...). It's like the old adage "The fight started when he hit me back."
The reason I replied to you is that your account was producing quite a bit more than the other accounts in this repetitive and dyspeptic discussion.
Sure, it's a serverless CMS (Visual builder) & Backend (API + SQL DB) based on AWS Lambda & Aurora.
It's used by startups & enterprises to build scalable web apps & mobile apps backend.

Unfortunately I'm not in a liberty to say. But what I realized is that it is not adjacent to common internet threads. It is out there in the real world kind of a thing.
One I have used for years is because one of our vendors doesn’t have an api and only allows 30 day timeframes for data downloads. So to get one year of data you have to download 12 reports manually, switching the dates, etc. or I open murgee, click f2, and wait 2 minutes.
In adtech a lot of people are very technically adept but never learned to code so tools like that can fill needs quite well. Even if a vendor has an api I’d have to get product to dedicate hours/etc etc, or I can write a little automation and skip the api.
