Dang, I’m not here to pile-on. The mod team here is spectacular. Over the years you and team have done a wonderful job. I do love HN. I just want to digitally die. I think we all get that. Keep doing what you do. To the community, support dang! He’s good.
Finally, HN should have have some option to wipe out the account, user name, comments, posts, something... It should be automated.
It's very valuable that HN allows throwaway accounts for these circumstances (unlike some other platforms where they allow only one account per person). However this doesn't help if the significance of a comment only becomes clear after it has been posted.
There is a lot of -- I mean a a lot of -- propaganda on reddit and HN. There are a lot of bad faith posters using throwaway accounts to skew dialog. I call em out when I see em, but it's pretty clear what's going on. 10 day old accounts posting in nothing but pro-China threads, or 1 day old accounts talking about how terrible Intel/AMD/ARM/etc. is.
