One of the unintended consequences of domain shadowbanning is that sometimes quality content gets buried. Which is an unfortunate trade-off, given the amout of spam content from such domains.

For example, here are some recent articles from https://dev.to that were submitted multiple times by different users, but were dead because the domain is shadowbanned:

I'm curious why dev.to is shadow banned, of all domains I'd expect this one to not be on such a list.
I guess because it's mostly tutorials, which are downranked: https://github.com/minimaxir/hacker-news-undocumented#downra...
Oh that's a good point, thank you!
