Ask HN: HN now hides comments from new users

3•nomoreaccts•1h ago
All new user comments are now hidden from public view.

What’s this gonna do to the platform?

Comments

EnPoopification... Let 'em in early to build the brand then shut 'em out later to protect it.

The point of any media outlet is thought control, and venture capital knows the vital importance of thought control to returns on investment.

maximedupre•1h ago
Is that true? What's the source?

What’s this gonna do to the platform?

If this is the case then hopefully remove some incentives for lazy grifters, spammers, AI botters and SEO farmers. If regular users can see your comment and search engines can not I think that is perfectly fine. With time your account will not be new. This is exactly how I operated phpBB forums using ranks and it worked out great. This does nothing to prevent new people from joining and participating in conversations.

mattmanser•1h ago
I've just checked a random thread and can see two new posters comments on it. Zero dead comments.

It's easy to tell new posters as their username is green.

So, no, they're not, whatever you posted on a new account tripped some sort of spam or content filter or your comment was flagged as AI or something.

ctdinjeu4•45m ago
Crazy if you logout/login haha. Completely different comment section.

This is a new account (still green) but it was not created today. That might be the trick.

andyjohnson0•34m ago
This is verifiably not true.

Here's a comment [1] written by an account that is currently two hours old. Its visible to me if I'm logged in, with or without showdead enabled. Its also visible in an incognito tab where I'm not logged-in.

As others have said, you probably posted something that triggered a filter.

ctdinjeu4•13m ago
Yeah because it has replies. Mods also randomly unhide whatever is caught sometimes, overriding the automatic filters. But it's very inconsistent.
andyjohnson0•5m ago
> Yeah because it has replies.

That doesn't make sense. How would people be able to reply to a comment that was hidden?

ThrowawayR2•22m ago
A significant percentage of new accounts are advertising, AI bots, account farming or other behavior not permitted by the Hacker News guidelines so it's fine if the automatic moderation system is a little heavy handed. New users whose comments have been mistakenly marked as [dead] can contact the HN site administrators directly using the information on the contact page linked at the bottom of the page to request that their comments be restored.
