From the guidelines you link, it says "Please don't use HN primarily for promotion. It's ok to post your own stuff part of the time, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity."
It certainly sounds like you are posting to HN primarily for promotion of your own site and that the system is correctly preventing you from doing so. I'd be interested to know how it decides to block this particular site, though!
- kammygood 3y agoHi nkurz! Thank you for your concern, but I want to clarify that my intention is not to promote my site. I just want to get feedback on anything that could be improved on my site and see if any user experience can be improved. I apologize if my post caused any misunderstanding. I'm here to engage in conversations in HN and share information with you all.
- nkurz 3y agoIt's not clear to me how you wanting feedback on your site helps the rest of the HN community---it feels a lot like promotion to me. But if you want to proceed, you should heed the other suggestion in the guidelines: "Please don't post on HN to ask or tell us something. Send it to hn@ycombinator.com." Dan is generally responsive, although the response might not be the one you want.
