1. Guys, I ve been noticing more and more often in the comments something along these lines: This problem was solved many years ago, here s a solution I found on Google in 1 minute .

2. Yes, most often, a problem you see on ProblemHunt at first glance seems to be already solved. And I fell into this trap myself. For example, for one of the problems on PH that I wanted to solve, I found at least three solutions in my search, one of which was created as much as 4 years ago. BUT after a call with the person experiencing the problem, it turned out that the existing products solved it at most 20 30%, and a lot still needed to be improved.
