This is the eighth time i've had a completely normal discussion thread rejected. no links, no self-promotion, nothing that violates anything i can actually read in your guidelines. Just an opinion meant to start a conversation.

Eight times. whatever's flagging these clearly isn't checking for actual intent, it's pattern matching on surface-level junk and getting it wrong, repeatedly. that's not a minor bug, that's a broken filter driving people away from posting anything real here.

I'm not the only one hitting this either, seen multiple threads from other users with the exact same complaint, rejected for reasons nobody can explain.

If your team actually cares about this platform staying a real community and not just a launch board, fix the model.
Right now it's actively working against the thing product hunt is supposed to be for.

Strong claim, hear me out.

Every founder update reads the same now. "excited to share," emoji bullets, fake vulnerability about the rollercoaster. doesn't matter if it's real or not, it all sounds identical.

Noticed this hard while hiring. read every dm myself for a growth role. most were obviously ai-generated, same tone, zero thought put in. the ones that stood out were rough, specific, clearly written by someone who actually looked at the problem first.

Think the same thing's eating founder credibility. people used to trust a post because it sounded like someone actually figured something out.

Hello Product Hunt!

I've been testing distribution across LinkedIn and X for a few launches now, mostly just to see what's the best channel.
