I'm trying to follow "POSSE" principles[0] but I keep hitting this "no self-promotion" wall. Not just here, but on reddit and other sites. I'm not trying to promote anything, I just want to own my content and share it. I don't have ads on my site. I'm not a shill. I just want to write about bikes.
I get mixed messaging between the hacker spirit of doing and sharing things, but be careful how much you talk about it. It's a little dispiriting and makes me less excited about sharing my work.
OK rant over. Fun note: I just noticed you're so close to having a beautiful round number of upvotes here (65535)
