Just a follow up to my own comment here for those wondering the same or for in the future if it happens to you. I got word from HN that the community probably thought this post was marketing for a business, and that the community was, understandably, wary of a new account posting their product. Truth is I am a solo hacker and this is just a side project of mine. I made an account with a matching name so that it was easier to determine official answers.

TL;DR: submissions from new accounts that are flagged for any reason weigh heavily against you, keeping you from posting or answering questions in a timely manner. Also, it took 40 min for it to be public on New, starting on the second page.

TL;DR:TL:DR: don't create a new account to post something.
