I try to submit an article to HN, and keep getting the message "Please try again.".
Does this mean the limit exceeded somewhere? To many requests? Am I not allowed to submit links?
Would be nice to have that clarified -- interestingly I can post a link to self.HN, and I see that other people are able to submit links right now.
Thanks for the info!
