To understand why, HN introduced a new rule to deal with the slop fest. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47340079 Further, the guidelines have long stated not to use HN primarily for self promotion. First, try being part of the community and understanding how things work here. Coming here to "accomplish" showing off your project is faux pas. | ||

It's not necessarily faux pas. Community types come to /ask first but some go to /show first. It's more that releases have become the new devlog these days. Someone who only talks about an idea and hasn't written a line of code will likely never do the idea. If they're open to reading comments and discuss feedback, it's cool. But using HN purely as a marketing channel is rather rude. | ||
