That's just people…

IIRC, it's not that she doesn't like the attention to her work, it's that she doesn't like how quickly conversations get derailed by things that have nothing to do with the work.

HN isn't very toxic. You must be confusing it with another social media site.

If anything, the Asahi devs are the ones acting out.

She's gotten a fair amount of unwanted attention from HN specifically, guys trying to dox her and stirring rumours about her. Like just mean-spirited stuff, and if you or I had experienced this then we'd likely feel the same animosity towards HN.
