I enjoy reading Lobsters, but the invite-only nature of it has had me sidelined as a passive observer for years and that's frustrating.
How do you obtain an invite? That seems crazy.
You can come hang out in #lobsters on freenode and ask for one. I can invite you both if you like.
Yea that'd be cool. My email is in my profile. Thanks!
Done. No problems!
Would gladly send you an invite but I need your email for that.
I love lobste.rs but I do have one complaint: The Tags, metadata and noise around the topic titles makes it difficult to scan for interesting topics. HN is so easy to just look down the list and find something interesting to read or discuss.
SSL only, yet SSL error - website doesn't work. A good reason to offer HTTP too.
