What do you mean tell HN? I don't use this site that much, like do I just tag the submission with it?

You preface the title with Tell HN. Helps boost visibility and gets the point across quickly. Else people would have thought your post was a link to an article or something and wouldn't have bothered reading through it.

Tag your title if possible, but if can't anymore no problem, just tagging for future text searches etc
