We re working on smart home tech that aims to be invisible, useful, and quietly perfect in the background.

It s got me thinking

Hey Product Hunt community!

I m currently working on a product designed for users around the world, and as exciting as it sounds, building something truly global comes with a lot of unexpected challenges.

Here are a few that I ve encountered so far:

Most networking platforms feel like noise.

You join a few Slack groups, post in some forums, fire off a few DMs and maybe, if you re lucky, you meet someone cool.

Hey everyone! I m Head of Ops at Product Hunt, and I frequently get asked about the best Payroll, PEO, EOR, and HRIS solutions for distributed teams.

With tools like Claude Soneet 3.7 getting insanely good at generating code and solving complex problems, I can t help but wonder: Will AI eventually replace software engineers, or just change the way we work?

I ve started using Claude Soneet 3.7 myself, and it s a game-changer for speeding up repetitive tasks. But at the same time, it made me think about the future of coding jobs. Will engineers become less relevant, or will we just evolve to work alongside AI?

Struggling to focus? We built Ashdeck, an open-source Chrome extension to block distractions, run a Pomodoro timer, and manage tasks without bloated software or spyware.

I was recently reminded of @Dockhunt and how fun it was to see what kinds of apps different folks kept in their dock. I remember it being a cool way to discover some new products I hadn't seen before. I'm also just a big fan of desktop apps over web apps. I find it a lot easier to stay focused when I'm flipping between apps vs flipping between tabs.

These are the apps in my dock:

• @Google Chrome - Pretty basic. I've really been considering switching over to @Horse though.

• @Slack - The de facto option.

• @Superhuman - Maybe the fastest I've become a fan of a product. I think I was pushing it on others within a few hours.

• @Notion - Great for documentation and collaborating. I also use it personally for tracking books I read and video games I play, along with tracking personal projects.

• Notion Calendar - The menu bar aspect of this is really what sold me. It makes it so much easier to stay on top of my meetings every day.

• @Linear - We just recently switched over to Linear here at @Product Hunt and I've been loving it. Pro tip: if you prefer the desktop app, there's a setting to open links in the app, but you can only set that option through the web version.

• @iTerm2 - I've tried others, but this is my favorite. This + @Neovim is just

• @Claude by Anthropic - This has been my LLM of choice for a while, and I really like having it as a desktop app. Especially the keyboard shortcut to quickly bring it up and ask something.

• @Tandem - Super easy to stay in touch and sync with teammates. Incredibly useful for a remote team.

• @Spotify - I typically have a YouTube video on in the background, but if I'm writing or doing something more focused, I'll typically have some kind of Jazz going.

With PH changing the discussion threads - has anyone noticed its a bit more difficult to find macro level insights?
Curious what the positive takeaways have been for you with this new update?

Hi! I m Ben, and I manage community support here at Product Hunt. We recently signed a new contract with @Intercom that has loads of new features, almost to the point that it s overwhelming

We had tried Fin in the past before the recent update (Fin 2.0?), and I ve been working on updating our help articles to make Fin work better whenever I have time. While Fin is a priority, I m also curious:

1. What features have others first implemented that were most impactful to your work? It could be data-wise or a reduction in volume! Anything making your team s work easier, with ~ideally~ minimal effort

2. What s been the best way for you to get everything set up? Navigating the Intercom Community, working with their team directly, reviewing help articles yourself, or something else?

Thanks in advance for any advice!!

Ray.so by @Raycast turns your code into beautiful images.

Their makers @thomaspaulmann, @peduarte, and @samuelkraft recently added new partner themes featuring @Vercel, @Supabase, @Tailwind CSS, @Clerk, and @Mintlify among others.

Any preferences?

Hey Product Hunters!

I love making music. I've been playing guitar, singing, and making noise since I was about 12. And Suno? It scares me a little. AI making music in seconds? Amazing, sure. But also... unsettling. Like, what does this mean for me?
