is "Show HN:" a paid way for companies to advertise on hacker news? If not, awesome, otherwise, I feel a bit naive in thinking HN was a more pure approach to content and would be very disappointed.
Well the guidelines say that "Show HN is a way to share something that you've made on Hacker News." but it looks like the community is satisfied to have marketers promoting (which is what OP does) instead of builders discussing with other hackers.
I share your disappointment and would like to know how the admins see this.
