I found back the username in my browser history, the name is baybal2, it's a fairly old account so I'm not sure what caused it.
I'm going to contact the moderation indeed, it's the first time I was seeing non-spam comments being shadow banned automatically.

- nkurz 3y agoYou've found an odd edge-case. baybal2 is banned intentionally, despite the fact that most of his posts are good, and some are great. Unfortunately, the remainder aren't. The compromise is that he's banned, but users like me vouch for many of his good posts to make them visible. Here's a post from Dan about him a couple years ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29692791 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29692791. And another from 4 years ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21195898 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21195898.
