I ve been trying to advertise my github project for days to no avail. https://github.com/alonsovm44/tc-lang Then one day i managed to make a post with Show HN: on it and it got 22 upvotes on 20 minutes and my repo started getting stars. Then it got [pinned], for no reason. I ve never seen a post get pinned, and i ve seen worse posts get a ton of likes while i get the pin of shame Linus Torvald s middle finger to HN
