Pointing out that Duolingo has taken an old website and turned its content into a marketing gimmick/"museum" before it's even had time to grow cold isn't really "self-centered snobbery," "bringing misery onto others" because "the world… revolve[s] around you." I can't help but feel like your response evinces a worse attitude than the one you're responding to.
I have no idea how you took any of this from me finding it interesting that Duolingo turned a website created in 1996 into a museum exhibit.
Guys I’ve found the most ironic comment on HN
Wait until we find out that it was written by the person who did the copy-pasting :-)
