Mods, I submitted this exact url four days ago:
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44963261 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44963261
Why didn’t this submission redirect to mine?
- epistasis 1y agoHN doesn't work that way. Resubmissions are allowed, especially high quality ones that don't get traction. But links to prior submissions are always added, and usually only if there's good conversation about the prior link.
- bilsbie 1y agoSo because it didn’t have traction they created a new discussion?
- epistasis 1y agoOnce the mods invited me to resubmit one of my own links by email a few days after I had posted, because they thought it was a good link but it didn't get traction the first time. (Unfortunately I didn't see the email until many months later, IIRC...)
