I noticed that I tend to get upvotes for posting genuinely interesting articles. Or at least articles that I think are going to be interesting (and from a good source). The posting policy here encourages value adding tech links.

Most of them are from tech news sites and out of 5 links I would post, 4 of them will get 2-3 karma and drop off very quick and 1 might get 20+ karma.

I've seen a lot of posts here over the years that are asking for community feedback, and that's what I was thinking I was doing. Maybe if I had prefaced it 'Show HN'?

The second submission was from a tech news site (geekwire.com).

I guess the target demographic for Klikaklu (outdoorsy people and families) doesn't really strike a chord here.
