wishrider··on A list of places to post about your startup/launch
Cool thanks, I've just updated my own list. If someone wants to save some time, we offer the posting as a service here:

https://launchpropeller.com/

wishrider··on Ask HN: What are your news sources other than HN?
https://www.uptopnews.com/ to get a quick tech overview.
wishrider··on I find journaling indispensable
You can also write journal entries via email, somewordsfor.me sends you an email every day and you only have to reply to add an entry.
wishrider··on Show HN: Get Visibility for Your Project
Good point, I'm going to add more contact information. I have a list of beta testers that is steadily growing, its a good mix of people from reddit and similar sites. I cannot give you demographic data but in the past I've had testers fill out surveys and asked them for their twitter handle (but only optionally if they were OK with it). So we could include that question in a survey for you.
wishrider··on Show HN: We pitch your project to 100 founders
I think the interesting part is that I contact founders that recently launched a project. Maybe after the launch they get exposed to a lot of new pain points, for example now they have to write invoices or do customer relations management which they never did before. That might be a good opportunity to catch their attention.

It works like this: I have a list of places where startups get featured and I select the startups from those websites and contact them. Those are all projects that have recently launched.

Womenhustlers sounds like a good fit, other founders are a good target audience I guess.

wishrider··on Bad Times in Tech? Not If You’re a Startup Serving Other Startups
I offer small services other startups too https://launchpropeller.com/#/
wishrider··on Show HN: TLDR This – Auto summarize any article or webpage in a click
It would be great if you could offer a parameter in your URL so I could make a get request like https://tldr.hackeryogi.com/?url=somearticleurl.com I would embed that in https://uptopnews.com/
wishrider··on Show HN: I will post your project to 100 websites
I've checked a couple of the sites and only one had a no-follow link.
wishrider··on Show HN: I will post your project to 100 websites
OK, I've decided to publish the list. The value is not the list itself but that I do the work for you. Instead of creating 100 different accounts and entering the same information so many times, just do it once and we'll do the rest for you.

wishrider··on Show HN: I will post your project to 100 websites
I can send you the list per email and you can exclude the ones you don't like or even add some.
wishrider··on Show HN: I will post your project to 100 websites
I've sorted the table of websites (over 150) by their domain authority and I work the list from top to bottom. The highest ranking ones are in the 90's (100 is max) and it goes down steadily.

wishrider··on Twitter was down
I've scraped a lot of tech news from twitter if anyone needs it https://uptopnews.com/
wishrider··on Show HN: RaaS – Roasting as a Service
I have a crowd of reviewers (and always looking for more) which are pretty much from the general public and good reviewers get tasked more often. I manually review the feedback replies to ensure the quality.
wishrider··on Show HN: RaaS – Roasting as a Service
$5 for review texts (but with screenshots and gifs) and $15 for the video reviews. In the special request field you could narrow down the tester audience but that only works if it doesn't get too specific. The feedback itself is about the website, user experience and what the people think about the product itself.
wishrider··on Show HN: RaaS – Roasting as a Service
Roasting as a Service makes sure someone tells you why your product/startup/website is trash. Because dreaming is too easy.

When people give you feedback they don't want to hurt your feelings. Would you pay $5 to get real feedback?

wishrider··on Show HN: A Firefox extension to leave comments on any URL
This would be so much better with a screenshot how it actually looks like.
wishrider··on Which has more sales: a single long checkout form or a multi-step one?

wishrider··on An artificially intelligent, open-source bionic leg
The Prosthetic as a Service (PaaS) model uses a pay-as-you-go approach.
wishrider··on Show HN: RankFight – We're Ranking Everything
I've never thought about this but a cow is so much better than a city!
wishrider··on Show HN: Fresh Eyes – Let people look at your page
For example you could test your sign-up procedure or specific features of your app or website with some fresh pairs of eyes.
wishrider··on The Internet Toaster (2000)
What a golden opportunity to show off my "feedback toaster" project :) https://feedbacktoaster.com/

You put your website in and it gets roasted.

wishrider··on Show HN: One Dollar Feedback
Hi everyone!

Since my service is all about feedback, don't hesitate to leave some harsh feedback here :)

wishrider··on Show HN: UpTopNews – Just Tech News
I like it
wishrider··on News Websites Are Dumpster Fires
Well the site is just a test (which didn't really take off to be honest, I've posted it here and there). But regarding the controls and the trust, you only pay out the reward if you like the result (that's how it works at the moment). And both the creators and the requesters can gain a reputation. A requester gets a good reputation for offering rewards and regularly paying them out. A content creator gets a good reputation for regularly fulfilling good wishes.
wishrider··on News Websites Are Dumpster Fires
I don't know how to break the echo chamber issue, but one thing I don't like about the news market is that they are advertisement-based. Or rather the consequences that come from that, for example the long articles where they spread the important points over the whole text so that I spend a lot of time on the site. If I just jump to the article, stay for 10 secs and then leave this is considered to be negative, but if I get all my news points in those 10 seconds its great for me. And the click-bait titles because they want the views etc...

So I imagine if say 1000 people make a wish to get a story covered and they even fund the wish, and the wish is "make a very short summary of this... including the following points..." then they can earn money by delivering on that. The result might be a very short article where people spend only 10 seconds and with a boring title, but they would still earn money with that.

I think it serves a niche where people can ask for content that they don't see yet or they don't see in the form they would like it.

Another way to look at it would be to call it a news-room where people decide what they put into the news paper. I don't know how this works in real news papers, but maybe they hold a meeting and then the journalists decide what stories they pick up. People could get involved into that by voting for topics.

This is a delay on what happened in the past, I'm working on a project https://wishpage.tv/ where you might have a delay in the other direction, into the future :) That's a request based approach where people vote for what they want to see and then with a delay the news gets delivered afterwards.
wishrider··on News Websites Are Dumpster Fires
I'm developing a very new approach to tackle this problem with my project https://wishpage.tv/ Its still moving but a request based approach to news might work for a small niche.
