There are bots that automatically repost everything on the HN front page to Twitter, automatically pinging him.

Ah I see. There's not much to be done then, because I can guarantee that with the ~140k followers foone has on twitter and the number of people who submit on HN there's no way short of HN blocking URLs (which IMO won't happen) that would resolve this, except if foone individually blocks the bots as they show up?

Maybe this just comes with the territory of being popular on twitter :(

Just a little heads-up though, foone indicated their pronouns as "they/them" on Twitter.
