I didn't really expect that good of a response but apparently, all I did was write a Medium blog post and it exploded on Designer News and then got republished on Noteworthy ( The journal ) on medium. I got about 6-7k views in a week on Medium and 3k of them actually read the blog of which about 1800+ people signed up.
I think what worked here was that the problem I am trying to address is something that most people care about in the UI/UX, Product Design community.
