HN is well known to have very “proactive” moderation, and as such kill low quality articles. As explained in this whole comment section, dev.to is almost entirely low-quality articles, and as such it’s not unexpected for HN to ban the site altogether.
I wish they would add Twitter to this list. Every tweet or "tweet thread" that's been posted has been incomprehensible to read and navigate beyond the actual title or first tweet.
