I can't get to the site - obviously not coping with the traffic - but I take this opportunity to remind people of these links:

... and more here:

Yes, you are right. As I wrote in my github it's just a personal project of mine to learn some technologies. I thought to share it with HN to get some professional feedbacks about my learnings. I didn't expect this much traffic on my VPS

Indeed. In general, beware of submitting something to HN, you can get more traffic than you expect.

And now that I've seen it - very nice. I hope to have a play when I have a little time and it's a little more responsive. It's probably more responsive now, but I don't have time right now.

>data scrapper

What's wrong with the data? Why are you getting rid of it?

Also: your server is struggling with the small amount of traffic you're getting..

His comment was point out that you wrote "Data Scrapper", which is something that scraps data - that is, throws away - rather than something that scrapes data, which is something that collects it (as you know).

His comment does contain information, but is not a clear explanation.

Hope that helps.

It would be nice if the posts on your site had links to the HN posts in question, instead of links only to the original articles.

Basically nothing is working on the site...
