“Shocking number” being “pretty much all of them” to the point I discovered https://news.ycombinator.com/active which shows topics where discussions are happening even if they’re flagged.

That’s the only way I browse HN now because this place is clearly brigaded to bury certain topics.

I wrote an extension that lets me tag users, similar to Reddit Enhancement Suite, and it's interesting seeing the intellectual dishonesty from certain actors, yet because they produce "valuable" discussion the moderators take no action.
Interesting! I bet I'd recognize some of those names.

And I also would bet that saying them 'out loud' here would result in a ban for 'harassment'.

Yeah, I only use active and new; for the same reason.

Idk if there's anything anyone here can do about it. There's zero transparency, or less; so most people don't even know there's a problem.
