It's been a few months (9+) now that I only visit HN using Tor, and I have not encountered any problem (apart from the annoying Cloudflare pages, which I avoid using another Tor circuit). I created and used my account using non-Tor ip addresses before that though.
- lucb1e 10y agoCan confirm. Created this account, say, 5 years ago (just estimating) without Tor, used Tor for regular browsing a lot between 24 and 12 months ago (corporate firewall during internship), and since then stopped using Tor again for regular browsing. Did not experience any kind of block at any point.
- gh1 10y agoIt seems like only new accounts using Tor are hellbanned. If an account has sufficient karma or age or some combination of both, then it is not.
