My comments on HN get shadowbanned for no discernable reason. Does that count?

HN has shadowban?
Sort of. There is a mechanism to "kill" a user's posts; these are posts that get flagged "[dead]". A logged-in user with showdead checked in their profile can still see them, though. In fact, as of several months ago users can "vouch" for dead posts that should not be dead.
Comments are shadowbanned too. Just log off on your account and then check your comments and submissions. Are they still all there?
