- hdjjhhvvhga 4y agoYou haven't really explained the reason.
- kichik 4y agoI would guess this helps prevent spam by hiding the spam comments from bots that may index it. Indexing bots aren't usually logged in.
- Raed667 4y agoIndexing would have been my first thought as well, but since I don't work for neither HN or Github, any answer I'd give would be speculation.
- Brian_K_White 4y agoThat would be something that matters to github not to a repo owner. Why would that be a repo owner tool if that were the reason for it? It doesn't add up.
