Are Show HNs Alive?
- TAlborough 3mo agoI see new "Show HN:"s are showing up but I can't post one. Is something wrong? Tom Alborough
- verdverm 3mo agonew accounts are restricted because of AI slop/spam, you'll have to wait something like a week or two
- TAlborough 3mo agoI understand. Thanks for the reply. I guess I can wait. I would like to help out if I can. I don't like seeing good things spoiled.
- TAlborough 3mo agoLooking around I don't think the AI slop/spam is going to stop or get better on it's own. Given the trajectories here it may well get worse quickly. How about requiring anyone who posts maintain a valid payment method and if they post "spam" it would be up to the moderators, or aaided by regular members, to leavy a fine. Like I said, this won't stop by itself. I do think some posts are by folks trying to get a leg up on programming. Can they be "special" in some way so others could give them help as they can? Tom
- TAlborough 3mo agoI did. When I tried I received a message that the "Show HN:"s were disabled because of (load). What have I missed? Thanks.
- JohnFen 3mo agoYou should ask the mods: hn@ycombinator.com You should not post a link with a misleading title (like this one)
- TAlborough 3mo agoThanks. I understand. Now I can't post now because I'm going too fast so I can't generate a screenshot to send to hn@ycombinator.com I'm inexperienced with this UI. I'll wait until I can try again.
