Here's a comment [1] written by an account that is currently two hours old. Its visible to me if I'm logged in, with or without showdead enabled. Its also visible in an incognito tab where I'm not logged-in.
As others have said, you probably posted something that triggered a filter.
That doesn't make sense. How would people be able to reply to a comment that was hidden?
This is a new account (still green) but it was not created today. That might be the trick.
If this is the case then hopefully remove some incentives for lazy grifters, spammers, AI botters and SEO farmers. If regular users can see your comment and search engines can not I think that is perfectly fine. With time your account will not be new. This is exactly how I operated phpBB forums using ranks and it worked out great. This does nothing to prevent new people from joining and participating in conversations.
It's easy to tell new posters as their username is green.
So, no, they're not, whatever you posted on a new account tripped some sort of spam or content filter or your comment was flagged as AI or something.
The point of any media outlet is thought control, and venture capital knows the vital importance of thought control to returns on investment.
