Hacker News Reader

I agree. I saw the original Show HN, checked out the app in the store and thought it looked great. But at the end of the day, it's a Windows 8 app. I don't even know anybody who has Windows 8.

Yeah. It's like trying to sell venison at a vegan retreat

I think you don't even need to go that far: Hacker News users don't tend to use Windows 8, so they can't very well try out a Windows 8 app. (Obviously some do, but my impression is that this is one of the few places where Windows use is solidly in the minority.)

Or Show HN: Google Analytics app in pure CSS ;)
