That "autodead" is usually for sites which require login (and no workaround), heavily spammy sites or from new users. None of those seems to be the case, may be worth emailing the HN admins. I've vouched in the meantime.

I have also seen people auto dead because they only promote their own blog or website repetitively.

Likewise, but usually when the user only posts links, few comments. But the OP is a regular commenter and this only their second submission. Looks unusual to me.

thanks for your comment & suggestion!

I'll drop the HN admins an email to make sure I'm not missing anything.
