We're not going to lie. One of the key places people ask you for help with a PH launch is in LinkedIn DMs (followed by X and email).
Most connections I got were people from Product Hunt, so it is a pity not to use that platform. I am trying to grow LinkedIn and play with many strategies, among:
posting several pieces of content per day
actively comment on other people's posts
send a certain number of connection requests per day
I ve been exploring MCP, an open standard from @Anthropic that aims to simplify AI integrations.
In theory, this should make it easier to connect AI with databases, task managers, or even development tools. But I m curious to know how well it actually works in practice.
I ve been testing a bunch of AI tools lately from auto-commenting on socials to AI-generated landing page content and while the tech is impressive, something feels off. The more we let AI talk for us, the less we sound like us. I get that it s efficient, but are we trading away authenticity just to keep up with the algorithm? I d rather take a bit longer and actually connect with people, not just post filler. Anyone else feeling this weird shift in how we re communicating online? Curious where you draw the line between using AI as a tool vs letting it do all the talking.
I m currently working on a new project and I m at that stage where the landing page is nearly done but I keep second-guessing everything. The design looks clean to me, but I m not sure if the messaging is clear or if the CTA actually pushes people to take action.
I ve shown it to a couple of friends, but they re either too nice or not really the target audience, so the feedback hasn t been all that useful. I m looking for brutally honest, constructive feedback before going live, especially around:
Hey everyone! I m Sarah Jacob, and I m thrilled to finally join the Product Hunt community. I m someone who s always been curious, driven, and a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to creating things that matter. I love building, problem-solving, and finding simple solutions to real-life challenges.
I m naturally very hands-on, and once I commit to something, I give it my all. Whether it's figuring out how to improve a system, simplify a process, or just make something more useful, I enjoy diving deep into the details. I'm also super passionate about learning from others and constantly looking for ways to grow.
Hi everyone, Gabe here! I lead curating Product Hunt's leaderboard.
First thing I will say is that if I could feature every single product that works, I would. I love supporting makers and demoing products. I actually try to test every single thing that gets hunted every day... which is A TON. But I view our job as to surface the most interesting, novel, useful, and innovative products - daily. Now we may not always get it right, the process isn't perfect, but we're trying to do right by the community.

Notion, Obsidian, and Roam are great, but they re not for everyone. Maybe you found something simpler, faster, or just less overwhelming. What s the one productivity tool you actually stick with the one that makes life easier instead of adding more work?
A few of us at Product Hunt are putting on our most brutally honest (but helpful!) hats and roasting landing pages for the next two days. Want in? Drop your link below, and we ll give you real, no-BS feedback on:
Clarity Does your message make sense or sound like corporate soup? Calls to Action Do we feel compelled to click, or just leave? Design & UX Smooth experience or rage quit territory? Anything else Tell us what you want feedback on.
I've been using @Google Chrome for years and honestly never thought much about changing. It just always seemed like the best and easiest option. Lately though, I've been feeling like maybe I'm missing out. Chrome doesn't feel like the no-brainer pick anymore, and I'm seeing more and more interesting browsers out there.
Currently, @Horse is my top pick. This is the one I'm most interested in trying out, but it also seems like a pretty different approach. I don't necessarily want my productivity to dip, but that may just be inevitable whenever switching.
