Lifetime plan vs. subscription model? Sustainability issue

More and more companies are using a subscription model instead of a one-time payment for a product.

Duolingo, CapCut and the like are examples of subscription models (monthly or annual), while DaVinci Resolve, for example, has a lifetime license.

Do you think Grokipedia has a real chance to succeed and surpass Wikipedia?

Elon Musk was extremely frustrated that Wikipedia couldn t be manipulated, and he even offered $1 billion if they renamed it to d*ckipedia.

Since that didn t work out, he s now trying to build his own platform for gathering information claiming that Wikipedia is hopelessly biased, and that left-leaning editors influence its content.

What are your productivity hacks for recovering in your free time?

I don't know about you, but I feel like I've been working non-stop for years now, and I don't know how I'm able to do it. And it's often because I include activities in my daily life that make my work more enjoyable or break up the monotony.

For example:

I exercise every day (and listen to video casts about tech, business, and marketing in the background)

What advice would you give to a newcomer who is going to submit to Product Hunt for the first time?

Today, I am co-organising my first hackathon in my country, and I will give a talk to the participants about Product Hunt as one of the ways to distribute a product.

Some participants may hear about the platform for the first time, and I would like to encourage them a little in building and launching products.

When you launch a product on other platforms, do you use the same launch plan as you do on PH?

Several of you launch your products on multiple platforms that are alternatives to Product Hunt.

  • Do you proceed with preparation and promotion in the same way as when launching on PH, or do you have a slightly "chill" approach and take it less seriously?

  • What is the gap between launching on PH and launching on an alternative platform (+ where do you launch earlier?)
