There's a redirect for traffic coming from HN with some acusations against the HN moderation team.

@dang any chance you want to make a comment on their claims?

Why would he, when the author has shown no evidence of the harassments and abuse he/she claims HN is full of.

Every small business who cares about their Google Maps standing responds to bad reviews, disputing their (proof-free) claims. Yes they have no proof but I would still be interested in knowing if dang was ever even made aware of the claims, or if there was some side-dialogue.

That said, maybe it's not the best approach. I phrased it openly to see if the moderation team would prefer to not comment on the story, as an option.

Asahi Linux has been front page here many times, so this felt like a case where a comment from the moderation team (either way) would be appropriate, to me. Feel free to disagree.

edit: There are specific acusations of referer editing at the end of the article.
