My most popular open source project is Jadelet[1], the frontend templating language nobody asked for. It was primarily made to solve my own problems so promoting it was secondary to coding it.
Most of my other projects are apps that happen to be open source but people experience them through the app much more than through the code, things like pixel editors[2], music makers[3], web based zine based operating systems[4], things like that. In those cases I spend much more time marketing the experience rather than the code or "open source" nature of the project, but again I probably don't spend nearly enough time marketing.
Thanks for reminding me to do more marketing :) aaaand... linkspam! Hopefully my ironic self-aware promotion style will be perceived as endearing and disarming rather than heavy handed and unsubtle.
