It's certainly not within the spirit of HN.Flagged.
I'm guessing because it is, in no way, a fit for HN, so several users probably flagged it. This post is even less of a fit, I'm guessing it will get flagged too.
Weirdly that HN article you linked to is flagged
Flag isn't just for spam, It's for articles inappropriate to HN
It's a sad state of affairs when articles like this are getting flagged by HN almost immediately.
I came to see if this was posted on HN, found that it was flagged. What's going on?
Interesting this post was not flagged https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41561181
Weird how the old one got flagged. Is there a reason why this shouldn't be discussed on HN?
That is correct. Hence this Tell HN, unfortunately it got flagged.
Ugh. What's this doing on Hacker News? Flagged.
