That category was added after one of our support folks replied, likely for tracking. I don't know why it's private. They may not even know this category is private. Hiding negative shit wasn't a deliberate decision... we're aware of google cache and we don't need to give HN another reason to dunk on us.

FYI, this doesn't appear to be strictly accurate. The OP commented at 23:52 UTC saying that the thread had been made private, and the reply from "Sam-Fly" was not posted until 02:36 UTC.

My point was that the app-not-working category is used in conjunction with support/our team getting involved. I assume this is what Sam meant by "flagged it internally", which was followed by investigation, then a post. I don't see how the timestamps uncover something nefarious.
