Oh man, not another "11 sexy girls with star wars tattoos"...
Normally I would follow "if you don't have anything nice to say" but since you literally asked for it:
Your site tries to build a better mousetrap in one of the worst corners of the internet (better means 'worse' in this case). "List sharing" is a known cheap trick for internet marketers who are the bottom of the barrel, exploitative of both original content creators and those prone to being sucked in to mindless content (aka internet junk food).
I actually really like information / data lists. Obviously that's a far cry from the "11 sexy girls" lists.
I'd be happy to see a revolution in data lists. There are all sorts of occasions I'm looking for the top X in list format and would love to run across it as the top result, in a clean format that loads fast. One site that had a million of those (that are accurate) would earn my bookmark.
Well, ideally we don't want to create those kinds of lists. Remember that our lists are interactive, meaning that anybody can interact with them, changing their ranking. Ideally we want to "empower interest-based communities to rank the best stuff out there". That sounds gay, and it is - but at the same time, it's true. I love red wine for example; and it can be really hard finding comparative lists between different kinds of red wine. Sure, you have Vivino (the app), but that is all kinds of fucked up. So I might want to create a list called "Best wines from Tucany", which directly compares the wine. Then, if I get my some friends that I trust to vote on the list, BAM!, it's a list of superior quality for both myself, my friends and visitors to Listnerd. That's our vision. We're not there yet, but we're working on it - hence this Hacker News post.

Maddox has a memorable rant that sums it up better than I can: http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net/c.cgi?u=ranker_sucks
Your site is not unlike the "reply girls" cancer that devalued youtube, or the fake thumbnails showing cleavage on related videos for everything.
Why would you want to "revolutionize the world of lists"? This doesn't even make sense.
