Ask HN: What makes you instantly downvote a post?
7 コメント
The usual suspects: spam, advertising, that guy who had an LLM hallucinate a holy book, $X with "AI", but additionally there are certain sites that I automatically flag posts of. I don't auto-downvote political or economic comments unless they're low effort slogan level.
I think I should also add that I suspect that voting rings exist for HN. The mod(s) do a decent job of eliminating them, but I think there's pro-MAGA and anti-vaxx voting rings that have slipped through the nets.
Linking to your site in every single comment will get downvotes. It's not a hard rule, there are a few exceptions, let's say it applies 99% of the times.
Using a sockpuppet/coworker/whatever like https://news.ycombinator.com/submitted?id=puildupO to make questions so you can reply with a link to your site will get downvotes.

- Spam: obvious self-promotion, with no useful content or when irrelevant.
- Personal attacks: going after the person instead of the idea.
- Irrational hyperbole: very strong claims not backed up by logic or evidence.
- Bad faith: deliberate misreading, quote-mining, or straw-manning the OP.
- Hate hijacking: attempts at using this platform as an outlet for political propaganda.

If you have examples of good vs bad wording, I would love to learn.
