The anecdotes shared here are mildly interesting. But there is not much storytelling that pulls it all together. That is probably why it didn't get much attention the first 2 times it was posted. The author probably has internalized the connectivity between the stories so well that they did not notice that while some of it was written into the article, mostly their writing jumps from anecdote to anecdote without building upon an overall story/thesis/argument/point.

Rather than posting it multiple times and having a friend re-post it for you (which is, admittedly, an assumption based on OP and the author sharing the same work history), I'd recommend putting some energy into figuring out why this post is not garnering the attention the author clearly desires. As mentioned, I think it is just being too close to the writing to see the gaps in the writing style.

An incorrect assumption (though it was nice to have seen a familiar face when I came across it) but good to know what you think of it. I assumed HN deduped posts but I guess not.
