Sadly posts from one of their employees, Lucas, are auto-dead and don't get seen which is sad given their effort and quality.

I have been curious about this, since I posted the delidded i9-14900(really interesting), but it got very little attention. I am a regular user/reader of hackernews, but not sure how they would verify that since I don't comment.

I appreciate you see the effort put into these by not just me but whole team here, I'll have to see if there is a way to get un-muted since these aren't low effort or 'spam-y' self-promotion posts in my opinion.

The author of the linked article is Lucas...

I think he means that, when Lucas sends himself the link to HN, it's autodead. If you click the domain, you see all submissions from LucasLabs are dead.

I wonder why? Genuinely, not sarcastically

Probably because the account has only ever submitted its own content.

potentially overly-aggressive spam filtering? the first comment by that account happens to start off with "The new $39.99 USD Anker Nano 45W(A121D) charger" verbatim.
