Funny timing — I tried to submit my own Show HN today for a small Linux app I've been building and got blocked because my account is too new. Spent the afternoon reading through HN threads to build up some karma instead. Feels like the indie software equivalent of the same problem this project is trying to solve — it's getting harder for small, genuine projects to find an audience without gaming some system first. Appreciate what you've built here!


HN submissions are reviewed/banned after the fact as far as I know. It is reasonable to put a minimum karma threshold before one is allowed to submit. Conversely, this site shared here relies on manual reviews before something goes live, which won't scale at all. There's no system to "game" here.
