Reached the front page on Hacker News

by Adrian Marin

This was my dream as an indie developer. Reach the front page of HN. I didn't even plan that launch. It was the spur of the moment to write the HN post and in less than 20 minutes I landed on the front page.

The post got 274 points, 140 comments, and more than 5K people landed on my homepage.

I got a lot of feedback from non-users but also from a few people that tried it. Good stuff there.

On Thursday I'm doing a Product Hunt launch 🤞

      Thank you! Are you usually active on HN? Have you launched anything on there?

          Just keep at it! Talk to customers and tweak your messaging. This was my third time trying to launch on HN.
          I feel like our message hit a chord this time.
