I think that to succeed in your business you should poll on management, because I think every developer on earth would roll eyes (and probably hate you) when proposed insistently* into participating on giving such feedback by some wanky manager.
*should read: "participate or it will impact negatively in your performance review".

Ugh this certainly sucks. I disagree with the rule that you can’t ask for feedback on your product! But fair I guess, considering that it has lots of potentials of misuse.
Will remember this next time. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction
I do disagree on the corporate-jerkery bit. 100% of current users (454 active this week) work in tech startups. Most managers use us to get agenda points for their upcoming 1-on-1s..
On the last bit --> Yup, I sent my weekly newsletter a few minutes ago and did tell users to give us HN feedback on how we can do better! :)
