The problem isn't that people complain instead of flagging. The problem is that flagging provides no visible reason or feedback loop. That's what my own experience tells me.

I share that thought, but wonder if is the flagger who needs the comment more than the admins. Like the scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark when Harrison Ford just shoots the man with the big sword, I find just down voting or flagging feels like an act of boredom.

I ignore them. The problem is that there is more AI slop than content with substance anymore.

How many flags does it take to knock an article off front page?

I don't know if there is a specific number. But I noticed that after I flagged that article it was removed from the front page.

HN is designed so that it takes very few flags to have an effect. I would be surprised if the limit was more than two or three.
