On the other hand, many interesting links (IMO) I submit to HN also get zero comments

Worse, I've had submissions (both links and comments) get flagged in the past, and I have no idea why. I suppose they must have validated some HN policy, but if I had more information about the rationale, I could avoid making the same mistake again in the future (all of my submissions where that happened were for genuinely interesting contents or 100% non-offensive opinion comments).
