Ask HN: How do you find new Apps?

1 points by bfuclusion ↗ HN
Hi, I've cofounded a startup that targets developers, but we're struggling with where to go to find potential users. So how does everyone find a new app to use? For me it's here and personal recommendations, but I'm not sure if I'm representative.

I have mostly found the software I needed in the package manager, or wrote it by myself; occasionally I find other software but it isn't what I want (regardless where I looked). I wrote my own software too and wanted to see who else is interested in it too, though. I don't know if you are representative or not, and I don't know if I am, but nevertheless you can mention it, and I mention my stuff too.

I'll make sure to do that in the future, but I _just_ created this account after lurking for a long time, and didn't want to immediately plug my stuff. That would feel like a bit of an abuse of the community. I will _happily_ gather data though:)
