Looking at the list of removed stories makes me really happy with the moderators here. They're all sensationalist, advertising for some company, clickbait, way off topic, or some combination of above. In fact, I don't see a single story that I personally feel should not have been removed.

Thanks, mods.

The moderators are mainly the users. Flags are what kills a story quickly

You're right, but I'd like to add that we do turn off flags sometimes when we think a story (a) has a good (if not high) chance at a substantive discussion and (b) hasn't had much discussion previously. If anyone notices such a case, they're welcome to email us at hn@ycombinator.com and we'll take a look.
