- jacquesm 6y agoI suspect that is a safari issue, I'm not aware of my website doing anything on purpose to give that effect. If you can tell me what to change I'll be happy to do so.
- baxtr 6y agoTo be honest: I have no clue what the reason for this is. I just don’t see scroll bar which is annoying because it’s difficult to estimate how long the article is. Happens on a few sites but not many. BTW: why was the article flagged?
- jacquesm 6y agoOk, strange, if you ever figure out what it is please let me know, I don't have Safari to test on near me at the moment. Why the article was flagged? Probably because HN has its own share of COVID deniers and they can't help themselves. Uncomfortable truths and all that. I'm so going to track one down and interview them in six months. I'd love to see their retrospective, see if they have learned or not.
- detaro 6y agoTo be clear, I didn't flag this, but to me it's also firmly in the "general news" box. It starts with "If you've been following the news", repeats a bunch of widely reported/discussed things and ends with the general recommendations I get all the time. It's not bad, but also not particularly interesting and I'm not sure why it's here.
- baxtr 6y agoYeah ok, but is that a valid reason to flag the article? Just don’t upvote it
