Since when can you not comment on flagged stories though? Or see them in your own favorites??

Like, I can still comment on other flagged stories even now, but on that one I couldn't. It's since been unflagged, so I guess I can't prove it, but I've never seen this site act like that... Real memory hole stuff.

I was able to comment on that story which is unflagged. Maybe a tech glitch?

It was since unflagged, and people can comment on it again, but look at the stamps. There's a good two hours there after the first few comments where no one could say anything.

And during that time it was removed from the submitter's page, the new page, and my favorites (it's back now).

Would have to have been a pretty weird and consistent glitch for a site that hasn't changed much in like 20 years.

Half tempted to email HN and ask what was going on there, only I wouldn't expect honesty.
