> Side note: one of Mullvad's Miami servers is blocked by HN, I have to switch nodes if I land on that one because "Sorry" message.

I frequently hit "Sorry" messages when opening a few HN links in quick succession through Mullvad too. I suppose the IPs have been flagged as potentially malicious.

Not sure what it takes for that to happen though; my server that archives every post made on HN has yet to get banned or heavily ratelimited, it just hits a 429 every once in a while.
