One of the things that bothers me about performance reviews
You re expected to remember everything you did months ago.
Especially the unplanned work.
That production incident
The weird bug you spent an entire afternoon debugging
Teammate you helped unblock
Investigation that never became a Jira ticket
Small improvement that saved everyone time.
😻 What makes you open Product Hunt?
After creating an account on Product Hunt, opening it slowly became a daily habit for me.
Checking new products, reading discussions, discovering what others are building...
One day I noticed there s a day streak feature I didn t even know about and honestly was surprised =D
After launching RunEvr, opening Product Hunt became even more exciting - now we're not only discovering products, but also watching our own journey and growth here.
Curious: what makes you the most come back to Product Hunt every day?
Is it:
discovering new products?
joining discussions?
supporting makers?
following trends?
Something else?

Build your brand before your product, or launch first and reveal yourself later?
I've always been on the personal brand side. More and more founders are building it now (sometimes even before the product is ready while it's still in development, before seed fundraising). The CEO builds their position so the product sells more easily at the official launch.
But I have experience with people who built the product, scaled it, and only then did we discover who was behind it.
Honestly, with the first approach, I'd be concerned that people invest more in me as a person than in the product. People would idealise the founder and overlook the product's flaws (which could hurt development and constructive feedback).
+ I noticed the most common mistake that many people who started building a personal brand first, connected their product to their personal accounts (emails, social media, etc.) and started having a problem selling these things, because they cannot "give someone keys" to their personal profiles.
