Ask HN: Why is it so hard to promote/market even when the product seems right
I won't post my projects here as this is beside the point. All the time I'm seeing other people promote their stuff, and it is lost in the gates of oblivion.Is this inherently inavoidable? Is there no solution to this conundrum? Where is the genius that will saves all the genius? Is there no riddle here to solve?I wish someone old and wise would explain why this mess is unsolvable.

If you know anybody at the club, please tell them to check whatever it is that receives their webform input.
