Reddit has a magic quality to it. There are a ton of groups. Some of the groups I have used so far are Betatesters, Buildinpublic, Earlystageapps, Indiehackers, Sideproject, Startup Ideas, Y Combinator. There are also specific groups like Public Domain and Borges which I posted my app to. Some of the other social media Like LinkedIn and here have helped as well.

Thanks, saving this list.

So it's a bit chicken-and-egg — need karma to post, need to post to get karma. Guessing the honest answer is to go comment like a normal person for a while first.

A lot of sites require you to wait a bit before doing anything. Metafilter makes you wait a week before posting for example. They want long term people.
I switched to just commenting over the last few days instead of posting. Honestly, getting more out of it than the posts ever gave me.
