News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

HackerNews is listed as one of the directories. When I submitted my project (soon to be startup) I got a ton of support and advice, it was invaluable. That being said, I don't think it would have worked if I hadn't made a very personalized message and responded to all the comments.

Exactly, if you can't be bothered to submit it yourself and chat with potential users, or even just other makers providing feedback, then you probably won't succeed.

But it helps if you engage, and interact with commenters on your submission.

If you literally just posted a link and never visited it would likely have been a waste of time for you - and your potential users.
