I understand that but unless I publish my preprint somewhere it's hard to submit for review.

In math and physics, you just upload the pdf to the webpage of the journal and then the editor wisely decides what to do. It's not necesary to upload it elsewhere.
Can you share more about why it's hard to submit the preprint for review unless its first published somewhere? Wouldn't you be able to submit the preprint directly to whichever conference or journal you want it published in?
For a different way to receive feedback for a preprint consider [url-redacted]. I created it partly out of frustration for the time it takes to publish smaller work. Although not currently implemented, I can provide a version that keeps review comments private.
That’s what I did when I was still at Uni. Unfortunately it’s quite hard without any associations.
How does your platform work in an academic context?
