Before answering I am suggestion that you question why you ask this question.
To almost quote Paul Graham, "A good PR campaign doesn't make good product". Don't mistake attention for traction.
If it is to engage in discussions, depending on your background, it is often more relevant to have a few smart people around you to discuss topics than to get a random person opinion from the internet. Some can be very relevant, most are not. As an example, a few days ago I read people suggesting a person that was laid off because of the crisis to try day trading to generate extra money.
As per an answner to the question.
Personal experience: not the things I thought were the most interesting / took me the most time were the most effective ones.
I got little attention with projects that took me months. https://frantzmiccoli.github.io/Gimuby/ https://frantzmiccoli.github.io/Gimuby/ extensive genetic algorithms lib in Ruby and https://deepdancer.github.io/deepdancer-documentation/ https://deepdancer.github.io/deepdancer-documentation/ dependency injection for Node.
Similarly, deep thought things, unless they are perceived as coming from an industry reference don't make it, like https://outofthecomfortzone.frantzmiccoli.com/journal/2019/08/03/building-a-brand.html https://outofthecomfortzone.frantzmiccoli.com/journal/2019/0... https://outofthecomfortzone.frantzmiccoli.com/thoughts/2016/12/12/konnectr-post-mortem-analysis.html https://outofthecomfortzone.frantzmiccoli.com/thoughts/2016/... or https://outofthecomfortzone.frantzmiccoli.com/tips/2018/04/08/gdpr-reading-notes.html https://outofthecomfortzone.frantzmiccoli.com/tips/2018/04/0... ...
I have noted a love for the unconventional security related topics: https://thedarkside.frantzmiccoli.com/experimentations/2014/06/09/trick-user-access-history-css-visited-and-captcha.html https://thedarkside.frantzmiccoli.com/experimentations/2014/... and https://thedarkside.frantzmiccoli.com/tricks/2016/08/27/hacked-investigating-intrusion-on-server.html https://thedarkside.frantzmiccoli.com/tricks/2016/08/27/hack...
And also I was surprised for some very practical "how to X" no matter how simple it might be: https://thedarkside.frantzmiccoli.com/how%20to/2020/04/01/twilio-how-tocall-forwarding-and-voice-messaging.html https://thedarkside.frantzmiccoli.com/how%20to/2020/04/01/tw...
