Why won&#x27;t people get PH is firstly about curation? This is the point of Ryan in this article, and nobody seems to get it.<p>PH is not made so you can promote your startup, it&#x27;s made so that product loving people discover new cool stuff every day. Ensuring the quality level is what PH team is after, way more than ensuring that &quot;meritocracy is respected&quot;, or whatever hate in disguise HN is fantasizing about these days.<p>To achieve this goal, Ryan took what we all know as the usual discovery channel - tech press - and opened it to a lot of people he gathered. They now try to find ways to scale this up, while keeping up with the high quality they expect from a curation process. Basically PH is a &quot;opened press blog&quot;, not a &quot;closed whatever you wish would help your startup&quot;.<p>Edit: read Ryan&#x27;s article again at this light and tell me he is not addressing this misunderstanding.
