Ask HN: Is HN banning Twitter links?

It doesn't look like it's hidden or dead or anything. The discuss link works fine: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38660621

Plenty of Twitter submissions https://news.ycombinator.com/from?site=twitter.com

In comments, those stories that make it to the frontpage, I notice that more users object twitter submissions because without an account you might be locked out or in case of a thread not be able to see the follow-ups. Though nitter as work-around still works.

Anyway, not sure what's going on with this particular submission, I clicked 'vouch' now.

My theory: HN somehow sees the Twitter account is new(ish). It has only 2 tweets, follows 0 other users. And thus in quarantaine ([dead], needs somebody to vouch) because likely it's spam or self-promotion.

never seen a twitter link here, perhaps true
