It seems that newly registered accounts are currently shadowbanned by default. At least that's what I did.

For example, when I send my first post, I find that I cannot see it on another device that is not logged in.

It might not have been shut down Manually by the admins; HN has its own antispam system.

In my opinion, these may automatically get you tagged and shadowbanned.

- using a VPN - posting instead of comment immediately after registration - posts containing unusual links (like personal blogs)
