Ask HN: Have you been too embarrased to post in Show HN?
I just finished up a proof of concept I've been working on as my side project. It's a location based mini forum - you make a post and you pick a location for it, and there's tree style comments, simple.
It's a bit cringy because there's no content and I've just crossed the milestone that let me host it. I'll be using it as my personal blog posting about things I wanted to talk about in my area and others can too.
I almost don't want to press submit. Is the UI and concept too cringy?

[ 4.9 ms ] story [ 18.2 ms ] threadI don't think it's about how pretty the thing looks but the concept that you'd be showing.
If something looks super ugly but there are some new/substantial ideas behind it people can look over that and still discuss the idea.
Beyond a certain point if something is too early stage or there's nothing to show it's not very useful to do show HN.
