Why is the top comment on Hacker News always a nay-sayer? Not everyone is working on greenfield projects. Nunjucks is a huge improvement for many large codebases.
Well, right now there are three top-level comments, and the one you refer to is the only one of those presenting more than a sentence. Also, it seems to be no longer ranked first.
In any event, I must say I like this kind of comments: a bit opinionated but putting forth some rationale, and hence inviting a healthy exchange of opinions.
> and hence inviting a healthy exchange of opinions.
There is no "inviting a healthy exchange of opinions",he is basically just trashing the project.There is nothing interesting in what he is saying,though he's free to say whatever he wants.Proof is the answers to his comment.
I don't consider a qualified statement of preference to be "nay-saying." If the article was about React, someone claiming to prefer Nunjucks would be "nay-saying." Since it's about Nunjucks, someone claiming to prefer React is "nay-saying."
