Ask HN: How to market without word-of-mouth?
A company that sells to restaurant owners isn't going to have the word-of-mouth momentum others might because restaurants are inherently competitive. Any suggestions on hiring marketers or PR firms?

Ask HN: Adobe App Download Numbers?
I’m sure Photoshop & Illustrator have exponentially more downloads than say, Fresco. But I can’t find any solid download numbers, only a ranking of “popular” purchases from the store https://shop.adobe.com/store/adbehap/en_SG/list/ThemeID.25225600/categoryID.62214900.

For example: controlling the mouse, which can't be done from a browser for security reasons.

Even a computer without installed dependencies should be able to follow the docs. Some don’t list what dependencies they need at the beginning, which could save a lot of time and error messages.
