  Maybe due to there being a previous discussion? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23564247 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23564247

    Are there algorithms on HN, that sort through previous discussions and determine freshness, etc? Or is it a moderator/human review

      Afaik it’s a human review. But they could as well add a label like (dupe) so we didn’t have to be hugely surprised when a post disappears when reloading the homepage.
