- worldsayshi 7y agoPerhaps you should post again? I would expect upvote behaviour to be quite arbitrary sometimes.
- fheld 7y agotrue, but also open software it more exciting for some people
- Rexxar 7y agoI will maybe do it in 6 months or one year. I don't want to spam HN.
- antoineMoPa 7y agoI think the right algorithm for something you put a lot of effort in (like I did for Shadergif): 1. Post on HN. 2. If upvotes <= 3: Post the next day. Maybe you did not get the attention you deserved. Try tweaking the landing page a bit. Maybe you can change the title, add more screenshots of your UI on the landing page. 3. Iterate on your product or work on a new one, but don't post a similar thing again for 6 months.

- gloflo 7y agoWow, don't be so dismissive out of spite. You even hijacked an unrelated comment for your slander. People don't upvote "60Mo software for drawing 1 curve", they upvote a "simple tool to design spline curves".
- antoineMoPa 7y agoI'd try your software if you made a Linux release.
