interesting! i've definitely noticed media scrubbing, and in a lack of words: "kicking it under the carpet" when it comes to these article regarding Luigi, and unfortunately it had to resurface itself as a "shadow-ban" aimed towards you.

your articles are definitely affecting some (especially me, haha) and do not fret if the netizens of Hacker News aren't seeing superior articles (such as the ones you make)

keep posting to Reddit. you have a community there, and this article divulges the shady acts of these "news hosts" other than Reddit. awesome job!

You inverted the "ratio of comments to upvotes". For your article's submission, the ratio *rose* from 486/668 ≈ 0.728 when on the front page to 671/862 ≈ 0.778 after removal. In comparison, the most "controversial" posts with over 100 votes had ratios of 344/718≈0.479, 448/968≈0.463, and 118/269≈0.439, all significantly lower ratios.
