I’m working on a free markdown editor that is built with Next.js, Tailwind, and TipTap if anyone is interested in a more production ready project compared to op’s :)

We're getting complaints from users that you've been overpromoting your project on HN. I think they have a point - this is arguably too much:

https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...

It's fine to occasionally link to your own stuff when it's particularly relevant, but it's not fine to use HN primarily for promotion. The intended use of the site is curiosity, and promoting one's own stuff is a completely different motivation (though, of course, a super common one). If you'd please roll this back a bit, we'd appreciate it.

(Btw, when users do this egregiously, we just add it to a spam filter. I wouldn't say you've been egregious, which is why I'm asking rather than spambinning. But if you'd get back on the good side of the line, i.e. using HN for personal curiosity, that would be helpful. I suppose I should also add that this is not any comment on your work itself, which I'm sure is very good.)

Nice. I totally am looking for that.
Awesome! Great to hear :)
