This should be connected to https://comsensei.com to get an available domain for each one of the ideas. It's all coming together :)

You're promoting your own website based on AI-generated things on a Hacker News post aimed at generating AI slop.

Where do we draw the line at self promotion (advertising) then?

For me, undisclosed self promotion puts a very bad taste in my mouth, to the point of coming off as bad faith. I dislike pretending you're just mentioning a cool service since you're effectively trying to trick me with false social proof.

If the post had said "I made xyz which could auto generate domains for these ideas using ai to fully close the slop gap" I wouldn't mind and might even appreciate the additional fun.
