Note, that Show HN is for something you've build, not content like blog posts https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html Those should be regular submissions.

I agree potential $12 income for lifetime subscription is hardly worth the risk. A user emailing with a question can wipe out the profit already.

I think, it makes sense to sell Standalone Mac/Windows/ Apps or Browser extension because there is no OPS overhead even if you make a $1M in sales.
