In simple English
This page is a curated list of websites where you can announce a new startup or product. It saves you time by gathering dozens of places to post your project in one spot. You do not need to pay anything to read the list or use the sites it recommends. The list costs you nothing in money, but you will spend a few hours submitting your project to each platform. It is a simple text file on GitHub that anyone can read for free.
