Let's flag comments like these because they come from users who do everything they can to get moderators to ban user accounts that contribute a lot to good discussions on the site. They haven't even bothered to look at the relevant content that I've published here and have come right out and judged it, how stupid!
Good luck with that. The above poster made a submission entitled "Ask HN: What can I do with the karma I've accumulated in my Hacker News account?" where he straight up asks "would I be able to promote any of my products or would I be banned for doing so?": https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41979929. Their contributions are only intended to disguise their self-promotional activities and they don't even pretend to hide it.
Of course, if anyone at all feels above characterization is inaccurate, please do feel free to contact the HN site administrators directly to ask them to look into the situation.
I'm working on a site that serves as an alternative to Hacker News. There you will find two relevant options (at least I thought so kkk)
1. A notification system. All posts that are commented on or voted on (positively or negatively) will generate notifications on the site for the owners of the respective posts.
2. Diversity of topics. On Comuniq we're not fixated on a single theme, so users who like topics such as health, politics, entertainment, art, etc. will be able to post there and generate very intelligent debates.
We're not trying to take power away from our monster hn, but rather to provide another option where we can talk about other things we love. Check us out at https://comuniq.xyz
I've mastered the following technologies: Javascript, Php, Css and a bit of Python. I'm looking for something remote to work on and keep my services going because I believe in them so much :-)
I stand by what I said... and a lot of them were posted under username cannibalXxx, which has even more spam. They just look like low-effort SEO bait. The self-promotion has gone a bit too far, IMO, but you do you...
