Ask HN: Why do most of my questions go un answered on HN?
This is happening a lot lately. Can someone help ?
Generally, questions where it seems that the topic is important to the author personally and the topic is one on which HN can bring expertise rather than preformed arguments will tend to do better.
Questions that are commonly discussed or too generic "what's your favorite productivity hack?" etc often get glossed over for those reasons.
Try asking something really specific and making it easy to answer, reducing the burden of doing most of the work for a commenter.
