- striking 2y agoIf you suspect a voting ring is interfering with HN in some way, you can ask the mods and they'll pull the data and tell you. Is it not the more likely explanation that some people / a moderator decided a summary makes for boring reading, especially given that you need 500 karma to downvote?

- oefrha 2y agoTL;DRs are frowned upon on HN because HN encourages people to read the article (especially before commenting) rather than Don’t Read the article.[1] You’re further breaking guidelines by complaining about votes. That said, your comment isn’t a summary of the article at all. [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12667459 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12667459
