Nate Wienert's personal blog at natewienert.com covers programming and startups. Since 2012, 5 different Hacker News readers have linked it 21 times, most often “Codename: Obtvse”. No feed was found, so read it on the site itself.
Too few sampled comments (4) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
Nate Wienert's blog, which covers his Obtvse project, a Svbtle-like blogging platform, and a Hacker News redesign idea. HN commenters link it for context on the Svbtle controversy and the Obtvse clone.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 4 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

HN discussionJust wanna point out, Obtvse did not copy the "kudos" thing, precisely because its author had the same complaint. https://obtvse.herokuapp.com/ There's also a new branch that looks very different: http://natewienert.com/ You might be thinking of WP-Svbtle which is closer to an exact copy.
