  It takes full content and user comment from Hackernews but doesn't mention Hackernews once?

  And clicking on the rules:

  "Rule 5 - You don’t have to use your real name to use Birbla, but don’t impersonate an individual or an entity in a misleading or deceptive manner."

  You can't make rules. The content and moderation is from Hackernews.

  Frankly, I find that 'social media' design awful. The design encourages doom scrolling, discourages comments, and the information density is so low to make the site frustrating to use.

  I think the current HN 'design' is a large part of the appeal to this site and the specific target audience.
