> Was on the front page for a brief moment is how I actually discovered it and the link. Gone after I finished reading it, doesn't show as 'flagged' yet but it's definitely been removed cause I can't find it in the top 5 pages.. unfortunate.
This really surprised me!
I feel like this is evidence that HN cultivates content beyond merely 'flagged'/'removed'.
I've never thought that lobste.rs "moderation log" feature was very interesting until now.
