I don't understand? Why would you post a blog on the public internet and then have an issue over it being shared? It's not like HN is reprinting it and the discussions are interesting.

I would not have know about this format if it hadn't been posted here.

Correction: an issue with it being shared on Hacker News. Foone has explained this themselves:

I bet that the kvetching doesn't happen now that it's a single Tumblr post rather than a tweet thread.

And if it does, the complaints can be flagged instead of the post.

Maybe. But also HN doesn't have a great reputation re: gender, and foone is non-binary. So there are multiple reasons.

foone uses they/them pronouns :-)

I'm sure I'm not the first to say this, but I'd prefer to use they/them as the default for people I don't know well (ie, everyone on the internet that I don't have a social or parasocial relationship with)
