A comment on Covid-19 is now officially a pandemic, WHO says. Parent comment

Every time I make a comment that garners a large number of replies, moderators 'detach' it from the article, which I suppose leaves it in some Netherworld where it can only be accessed from members' profiles. I'm not sure what the point of that is.

Maybe they are just falling off the first page of the article's comments. Try the "more" link at the bottom.

No. I'm referring to a moderator making a statement 'this has been detached', not some misunderstanding or confusion I'm having. You can find it on my profile recently.

I see what you mean https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22512003. Considered off-topic maybe?
