		stingraycharles on June 19, 2014 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Facebook was down I think it's a bit of a stretch to claim that nobody should care about Facebook being down, and that "a few people" depend on Facebook's SSO. This has a major impact on a lot of sites, and there are millions of people that do care about Facebook. It is worthy of a HN submission, although I personally care most about the postmortem to find out what went wrong.

My complaint was actually about the number of submissions rather than it being submitted or that people shouldn't care.

Ok if that was the case, I understand the sentiment, but the words you chose to make that point were badly chosen.

Yeah, very true. I did launch into quite an inflammatory rant.
