I regularly get HN posts in my RSS feed that end up being flagged when I click through to them, but this url has only been submitted once from what I can tell. Plus, even if it had, adding "flagged" to the title of a post is far from censorship.
I'm not sure why he thinks HN is removing his posts.
- detaro 5y agoLooking at the submission history for the domain, you see a point where a few submissions are [dead], and then resume from another account - I suspect that was the point of getting shadow-banned, if I'd had to guess because they only submitted their posts and basically never interacted on the site otherwise. Why that would do long-term "damage" in any way I'm not sure. (And of the course the replacement account doesn't look much better regarding the "don't just self-promote your posts" rule)
