There have been multiple such posts on HN over the past week. For some reason this reminds me repeat spouse abuse victims who tend to knowingly preference relationships that result in violence. They claim one sentiment about lock-in but their overwhelming need to build a brand in an externally managed space will ultimately drive those sentiments into irrelevance.

The only way these posts will ever make sense is if people shift their attention from content/branding towards platform independence they build. I suspect that is just asking too much, but this actually used to be the norm before 2004.
