Look at this user for example, he was posting for a year and guess what, for a year of posting, all of his submissions are dead, without him knowing, only the first 9 submissions from 2021 that are visible, only 9 from ~58 and he keeps posting because he don't know that his submissions are not visible.

I don't think this is right

From the guidelines:

Please don't use HN primarily for promotion. It's ok to post your own stuff occasionally, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity.

The non-dead posts got two total upvotes.

Yes I understand that blocking his blog's URL because of promotion is normal, but still, I think he should know about that
