Ask HN: Why are submissions critical of Apple being nuked?

I've noticed over the past several days that submissions related to Apple and Hey email that are heavily trafficked with lots of engagement are not sticking to the front page. This strikes me as extremely suspicious since this is exactly the sort of topic that usually disproportionately captivates the HN audience with high upvote and comment counts.

Example as of 5:32pm PST 06.18.2020: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23568095. This submission should show up on the front page. It doesn't. In fact, I can't find it amongst the top 60 submissions.

@dang Could you offer any explanation here?
