FWIW, promoting a bunch of your content (even if original) is seen as anti-participatory in some communities. Even HN recommends against it in the guidelines. While we're at it, at HN's scale you see the same polarization of engagement in /new. Simply posting original quality doesn't warrant engagement.
Reddit gives you a myriad of subreddit case studies to blow-up, but I think this is less of a scaling problem and more the split culture between communities.
