   Author here. I don't know why this popped up 13 years later, but hi :-)

      Would you say it is still roughly the same?

      > It's unclear if these penalties result from HN administrators or from flagged articles.

      Any answers or insights on this within the last 13 years?

         The mods are much more sensitive now to anything they consider flame-bait, flame-baiting, or controversial. Much quicker to intimidate/threaten, de-emphasize posts, flag-kill, etc. I presume because HN may be influencing/affecting some billion dollar bottom lines now and they can't afford a bad look
