Yes and I browse with showdead on to vouch for reasonable items.
Currently on new for dead/flagged: new account self spam / new account zero effort ai slop spam / new account zero effort ai slop spam / show hn ai slop with all default llm design / spam / spam / spam / account that has never posted anything but its own blog / spam (all of dev.to is dead afaik, because it is nothing but a spam source; there are no useful posts on it)
There is nothing that I consider even slightly interesting or reasonable or innovative to hackers. I am also not anti-gen AI but there is a line between "person has used claude to create something" and "literal zero-effort unreviewed trash that is a waste of the environment". >99% of ones I'm see in /new is the latter.
It is entertaining that the situation becomes opposite in T-Mobile on States does not support IPv4 and only assigns IPv6 with 464xlat for "Fake-NAT" to IPv4.
China, Japan ish are where I have seen it the most.
Weibo, Sina you get "Failed registration (mail not supported)" if you enter non-major provider. In china nearly everyone is using qq, 163, 126, sina. Probably >99%
All of your submissions look exactly like identical zero effort unwanted AI slop. Your page layout is completely identical to the default prompt generated as a baseline.
Your product is nothing special, unique, or anything requiring even the slightest amount of effort. Your product exists and is free, built into just about every IDE with AI.
You have not contributed or participated in any part of HN in any way other than self promotion.
These look like a significant amount of humans reported or flagged your post, not automatic removal filter.

First thing on your page is pricing and view plans.
> For example, pricing isn't the first thing users see, and there isn't some automatic pricing page as you describe That makes me wonder if you actually looked at the product before writing the reply
You called it not commercial and then the top menu is Pricing and the call to action is Start / View Plans, both above the fold. If it wasn't commercial link to your git repo instead of whatever slop landing page you generated.
