I am seeing this same/similar comment on this thread which has been posted by three quite new accounts. Is this quite normal on HN now or is it some bots farming engagement? Btw, I'm a new member here, knew about HN since a long time but never bothered to make an account up until now
- dtgriscom 3y agoLooks like one old-ish account with a number of submissions and comments, and two very-similarly-named copycats that are getting voted down to oblivion. Not very common here, but it happens.
- CodingThunder 3y agoOne of them seems to have deleted the comment just as I commented about this. Also downvoting is an option? It doesn't seem to be visible here.
- fnordian_slip 3y agoDownvoting is only available to users above a certain karma threshold, I believe around 500 or so.

Not every comment should be terribly ingenious, long thought and crafted to show people how smart the commenter is. As a commenter you have the right to be spontaneous.
