I submitted this article about 3 hours ago and so far I don't think it has going live. It not flagged and it doesn't appear to be against the rules. Anybody know why it hasn't gone live?
Its the top article of my submission list " Pinterest Is Drowning in a Sea of AI Slop and Auto-Moderation (404media.co)"[0]

The one that was 3 hours ago is actually marked as [dead]. I don't know the reasons, but obviously it was "killed" for something.
Set "showdead" on your profile, you'll see it is [dead], likely since a duplicate.
I searched hacker news and the article does not appear. Doesn't the system not let me post if its a dupe?
Ah, I think 404media is auto-dead (not sure why)
Most 404media.co articles show [dead]. I don't recall why, maybe after they switched to paywall, though I don't see a paywall for this article. I clicked 'vouch' now.

Thanks for that find. At least now I know that 404 media is under suspicion of low quality posts. I'm not sure if that's true because I don't have the history with 404. I do feel like, and I could be wrong, that hackernews seems to not want articles that paint AI in a negative light. If that's the case, IMHO, that's unfortunate.
I don’t think they’re low quality, as a 404media subscriber. If they supported gift links, I’d hope HN would change their position on the topic.
404media.co is a banned domain, probably because there's no paywall bypass.
But the article is not behind a paywall, I don't think.
