Thanks @dang. Turned on showdead. I will say that I was completely unaware of the moderation efforts here and appreciate having this pointed out to me. I like this option too. As far as transparency goes I don’t think it gets much better than this.

Showdead doesn’t work on stories AFAIK, just comments.

For stories on the front page, I made https://orangesite.sneak.cloud.

Of course it works on stories. There are eight right now on https://news.ycombinator.com/newest

Oh, I meant on the frontpage. I am quite curious about stuff “popular” enough to make it out of newest and into the top30, but off topic/rulebreaking enough to get nuked (either by mods or by flags).

Thanks for this!
