Appreciate the extra context from both of you. Lots of that makes sense - I’m glad I could get an answer on this. Thanks again.

(Regarding the post you linked to, I’m not going to dispute whatever’s going on in that thread, but I’ve had multiple comments removed over the years that were critical of YC specifically. That is neither here nor there and it’s been too long for me to recall specifics, though I do remember being thoroughly confused more than anything.

So, personally, that guy might be asking in bad faith but it is something to be diligent about, even if it’s just avoiding the perception, as his underlying logic holds up even if it’s clear he’s looking for a fight today.)

Best regards to both of you.

I’ve had multiple comments removed over the years

By "removed" do you mean:

a) "flagged" such that only people who are logged in and have changed their preferences to showdead -> yes can see them?

or b) the words not visible even with showdead -> yes?

I'm curious because my setting is showdead -> yes and I see many otherwise suppressed comments. In fact there are people who are "banned" and I still see their comments (but not possible to reply).

Most of the people complaining added politics/crypto comments and it results in low quality comments.

Those topics get easily filtered and understandable.

It's also the part where i have to pay attention too.

The referenced link had probably something similar and that's what they mean with "opposing" views in a lot of cases.

While all discussion on those topics ( except interesting ones) would be moderated.

Dang mentions it a lot.
