I've gotten LiberWriter on the front page here a few times, and the number of new customers was astounding:

Absolutely zero.

The typical LW customer is not at all tech-savvy, which is pretty much the polar opposite of your average HN user. I get far more mileage out of hitting forums where writers actually congregate.

Not to complain, mind you, I posted to talk about aspects of LiberWriter that I found interesting that might be worthwhile for others, not to troll for business.

It would be great if you could distill:

"Most authors say that more than 80% of their eBook sales are via Amazon."

down to one metric. 'most' can be manipulated to be almost any value... just ask cats.
