this started happening after a longer downtime. i see one or two of those per day. so far it has not been a bother. it's not like it's posting everything now, and the stuff i click on is interesting regardless most of the time. more concerning is that occasionally i notice a submission that should have been shared in the channel but isn't. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48732582 for example.

i suspect they replaced the bot that picks the posts and either the new bot is simply buggy or it has another algorithm that picks posts by growth rate maybe?
