Hey there, I’m a member of the GitLab Community Relations team. My team is responsible for this page. I shared the page today at a DevRel meetup where OP was presenting on Hacker News. I’m grateful he chose to share it with all of you. Thanks, Dan. If there are ways we can improve how we engage with the HN community, myself and our team would love your feedback.

Not GitLab CEO here.

Definitely not.

Title should be "Gitlab's HN handbook page". It is about managing marketing/advertising on Hacker News.

It's part of the broader GitLab handbook, which is interesting reading, e.g., https://about.gitlab.com/company/culture/all-remote/guide/

For some reason, I find it much easier to remember to visit Cloudflare blogs, solely due to the fact the URL is blog.cloudflare.com and most of the good content is located there.

It might be worthwhile for the Gitlab community team to consider changing https://about.gitlab.com/blog/ to something not tucked away on the about subdomain.

I also realize I might be in the minority of users typing out URLs (no use of bookmarks).

CEO is having dinner.

I think it's only you and Mr. Prince left from the IPO'd devtools crew, you're the only two I see still kicking around occasionally. But hey, big job so thanks for stopping by. Enjoy your dinner.

> We learned that the key to a post reaching the front page was the content itself. Well that's good news, at least

I am torn between joy and depression that this is a notable finding. Nice that they noticed and followed the logical conclusion, at least:)

Does blog.GitLab.com/ take me to the post itself?
