I'll go first. A large HR platform sent out an automated AI-written email offering condolences on a prospect's coworker's death, and then tried to hook them into a demo.
Okay, so I know everyone's feed has been taken over by the Studio Ghibli but I'm curious what else people have been able to create or seen that's really left an impression. Here are some that I've created! Also on X.

I would like to warn you in advance that I do not want to offend any culture or country with this post. It only demonstrates observations from my own experience.
6 months ago, I had a conversation with a friend and we got to the topic of money.
We gearing up for the launch of WebGremlin.ai and of course, planning to submit to PH. But I m curious, where else do you share your products to get traction? What are other platforms, forums, or communities that have worked well for you (like hackernews)? And while we re at it, what s your go-to initial launch strategy to make some noise?
A successful product is often seen as one that is well-commercialized, with users willing to pay for it. But is that always the case?
Today, I came across many products that are incredibly fun and creative. It made me wonder: are there products that don t fit the conventional definition of success? Maybe some exist just to bring joy, even if users simply visit, smile, and leave.
Some might argue that if something brings value, people will naturally be willing to pay. But is that always true?
If you're a SaaS, digital product, agency or freelancer what payment gateways do you use to handle local methods, taxes and subscriptions?
PayPal charges me 5% per transaction and their support is unwilling to reduce it to 3% for me while I know they do lower the transaction fee for certain accounts.
Weird domain names are the unsung heroes of the internet. I used to own pollinate dot me. Basically I was drunk and thought a dating app based on people that liked to garden was a good idea
Following on from what @gabe posted on the forum (I decide what's featured on the leaderboard - AMA w/ Gabe from Product Hunt) you can be more "clear" why you didn't make it to the featured leaderboard.
From the points presented in the discussion, several conclusions and perhaps even advice emerged, which can increase your chances of getting to the featured section.
Hi everyone, Gabe here! I lead curating Product Hunt's leaderboard.
First thing I will say is that if I could feature every single product that works, I would. I love supporting makers and demoing products. I actually try to test every single thing that gets hunted every day... which is A TON. But I view our job as to surface the most interesting, novel, useful, and innovative products - daily. Now we may not always get it right, the process isn't perfect, but we're trying to do right by the community.

Notion, Obsidian, and Roam are great, but they re not for everyone. Maybe you found something simpler, faster, or just less overwhelming. What s the one productivity tool you actually stick with the one that makes life easier instead of adding more work?
To be honest, I find Cursor s VS Code experience quite uncomfortable. However, the fact that it runs seamlessly within my codebase is what keeps me from abandoning it.
That said, if Copilot were to offer the same level of integration, I don t think I d continue using Cursor. Copilot is gradually catching up with the features Cursor provides, and it works within IntelliJ, which is a big advantage for me.
