    I am confused by the value proposition here - how are devs that can’t market going to help each other market? Where are the marketers?

    This is exactly the problem I'm running into right now. Built something useful, getting organic npm installs, but turning that into actual distribution is a different skill entirely. Signed up.

    OP here. I am terrible at marketing so I started to build a thing for people like me: I Can't Market.

    The reason is after getting Claude Code/Copilot subscriptions I am working on many projects in my spare time. I am using many of those myself everyday, but can't spread the words and get collaborators and feedbacks which is essential to enhance any project.

    Verified makers post structured asks (launch / feedback / collab / etc), but posting a second one needs a substantive review on someone else's. Recipient has to mark it Helpful or it doesn't count. No upvotes, no paid placement, no email harvest. Verification is real - GitHub repo admin, DNS TXT, or package provenance.

    The idea is people like me build things but when it comes to marketing it sucks. This is an attempt to create a habit as well to review others work and interact breaking the silent cycle.
