This felt negative so I flagged it. I think this from HN guidelines is related:

"Please don't post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work."

I get that you probably mean well, and aren't personally attacking anyone, but this post doesn't seem in line with the goals of HN.

I'll chip in because the OP's sentiment is fairly understandable, as there's no concrete metric that people use to quantify how "useful" one's tagline is on Github.

Also, you did mention that OP isn't attacking anyone, so I don't understand the purpose of flagging - even though the post may "seem" negative. I personally feel it's not.

That isn't why I flagged it. I flagged it as a judgment call.

I understand your point, cannot edit the "stupid" word.
