habr

There was a HN-like site but with all the bells and whistles called habr.ru.

That didn't end well for either Habr or posters there.

Is there any specific evidence that Habr supports the war?

Look at the company registration address: Habr Blockchain Publishing Ltd.

He boycotted Habr once it started enforcing censorship.

What are the modern equivalents of habr?

> habr.com interesting to see this forum show-up again.

Moreover, habr is a great example why you should not let your site be 'out of politics' (which basically means making a silent deal with fsb to let their ambassadors roam free in the comment section for the luxury of not being blocked).

It is also possible that part of that income goes into salaries of the staff which emigrated after 24.02.2022 and works for Habr remotely, as it happened with many Russian IT companies.

> I unpublished everything there and asked to delete my account in Feb, 2022, just after the full-fledged invasion of Ukraine started Habr contributes money to Russia and their war effort.

From Russian it means "green cat", he used to write really good articles about spave on Habr, good job continuing the work!

Habr, the russian speaking HN-alike, was "outside of politics" too.

Here's a (partial) translation of the author's post on Habra Habr.

Russian: Habrahabr (habr.ru) is somewhat like HN.
