It’s poor taste to hijack another “show hn” post. Probably not against the rules but definitely frowned upon. Similar to proposing to significant other at a friends engagement party.



Maybe. I agree it could have been worded different including giving some constructive feedback on it..

Ppl who discover a category of software might hesitate to try it out while looking for alternatives to compare it against.

It also helps the author be aware of other features that might be of interest to them.

Cap.so would still remain my first option to try out. It's unique compared to another good screen capture, screenity.io, which is more locally run in the browser.


The intent was not to hijack the discussion but to provide choices to the people. After all, we are talking about Loom alternatives here.


The thread is about an author who created an alternative to loom.

People discussing other alternatives to Loom, or alternatives to what the author created is besides the point, to the extend that there might be helpful comparisons and questions. Could be just me tho, which is totally fair.
