I fear that "gcombinator" could breach copyright?

    [mpaepper] (2026-01-27T14:44:21.000Z)
    Maybe, however, they might not care as the API is freely available anyways

        [chromehearts] (2026-01-27T14:46:10.000Z)
        You're right.. well hope it doesn't come to that

For example this post here becomes: https://news.gcombinator.com/item?id=46780583

is this supposed to be LLM optimization or what's the primary use-case for this?

    Easy copy paste of the thread metadata. Try to copy the thread title without it.
