I guess it sort of is, hOOk, though I'm not sure how to write about my specific experience without it being just that.

Before my app was featured, I was looking online for two pieces of information, how to get featured and how many downloads I could get from being featured.

All I could find for how to get featured was "make a good app", turns out that part is true.

I couldn't find anything for what to expect as a result of being featured. Some people shared general looking graphs, but I'm sharing actual numbers so that people can have an idea of the process, and the result, of being featured.

Sometimes HN is quite appropriately nicknamed Hater News, and we're also no less likely to get trolls than any other community!

Thank you for an amazing write-up. I wish more developers would open up about their experiences in public!
