For personal work, consider starting with "Show HN" in the title. https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html

Show HN has its own rules and so forth but they are about posting work under the Show HN rubric. They aren't a requirement, though, you don't have to post personal work as a Show HN.

FWIW, I think I would be particularly confused by a "Show HN" on a project that the author explicitly didn't intend for me to actually use?

Show HN FAQ:

My guess is the author shared it for the learning opportunity.
