I just noticed I've been on HN since May 2009.<p>That's 12 years!<p>During that time I've done 2 startups (one failed, one I'm currently working with), became a father to 2 daughters, got married, got divorced and for a brief period I even ran a Swedish version of Hacker News with its own Youtube channel!<p>I have probably read HN every day for those 12 years. In fact, many times per day.<p>I still find new fascinating articles and learn new stuff from what's posted here, including the comments. No, make that: _especially_ the comments. That's rare from a site like this. As you can see from my karma, I'm not an active poster or commenter myself, but I highly enjoy reading what you all post here.<p>Since you obviously is a big part of my life and bring so much value to me, I just wanted to say a big THANK YOU to the HN community. Looking forward to another 12 years together with you!<p>Karma to you all,<p>erikstarck
I’m really happy to hear that.<p>Honestly hackernews has been a treasure full of knowledge for me and I wanna thank all the people who actively contribute to this platform by sharing and actively engaging in discussions
