Blog posts, sign-up pages, and fundraisers can't be tried out, so they can't be Show HNs.

Should I post it as a normal post then?

I am not sure, I think moderator should change your title. I copied this text from the rules page https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html

Ah. Good to know :). Cheers

> Visual Studio Code – great for working with Ionic

You got that wrong, my friend. VS Code is not just for Ionic its an IDE and there are plugins for many frameworks/programming languages and even productivity.

I've only used it for working with Ionic, so I can only give feedback on that. I updated the text to point that out.

> ClubHouse – product management tool. Similar to Trello but so much better.

I can't bring myself to trust this opinion when an affiliate link is used.

Fixed with a normal link :).

Someone else that replied to me was right. Affiliate links are fine, but just say something like "There are a couple affiliate links in here, but I promise these opinions are real."

There's a few affiliate links.

It looks like the author also added Blog Planner[1] to the list which they wrote, it uses the same GA account ID. You should really disclose these things. I don't have an issue with using affiliate links, but I think should clearly disclose them.

[1] https://blog-planner.com/

There was only 2 affiliate links, the other was for rescue time, but I have removed them both.

Blog planner is just a small tool I made on the side. But yeah, I should point that out. Thanks for the feedback!

These kind of lists are really useful in helping you find tools you wouldn't normally come across and I'll definitely check out some of these links!

It's just better being upfront with any bias you may have.

For sure! It's a great way to discover new tools.

Yeah good to know. I don't do a lot of writing, so always trying to improve. Cheers
