People don't like repetitive topics - that's a much simpler explanation and things get flagged for repetitiveness all the time. The source doesn't really matter, after the Nth DOGE article, if Kabosu herself descended from doge heaven and wrote a DOGE article, it would probably get a lot of flags.
- ggm 2y agoThen a subclass flag boring|tendentious|inappropriate would work. Not knowing if this is just boredom with topic means total conjecture. And, considering sources its my belief few feeds from reputable (I know.. ) sources deserve flagging. Professional writing on boring subjects is better than bad writing.
- pvg 2y agoRight but the HN criterion is repetition. What difference should it make if the repetitive thing is professionally written? People flag dupes all the time and many stories are covered by multiple reputable sources.
