Take the conversation of off Product Hunt.
Currently, PH doesn't offer any type of connecting/friending people nor chatting 1:1.
I personally connect with people on LinkedIn and take the conversation from there.

thanks for sharing! I am wondering if the community are all product builders ?
Ensure you engage genuinely with the community, providing value, seeking feedback and creating meaningful relationships, as this will accelerate your learning curve and enhance your visibility, paving the way for success on Product Hunt!
Do bad products face backlash or bad feedback?
I'm about to launch a few products over the next few weeks and it concerns me that my product isn't as fancy as all the new AIs in the market and might be quite underwhelming. Is it worth launching anyway to test the waters?
@rahul_luthra launch and find out.
See what the market thinks and not only what you think
@rahul_luthra @dynasty Agree! I think PH is quite a nice and generous community - haven't come across any mean feedback tbh.
@rahul_luthra I have the same concern, but suggest to just do it, since we need feedback from the community.
@rahul_luthra I wouldn’t worry about that, the PH community is generally extremely supportive. Just because your product may not be on trend right now doesn’t mean it’s not a great one!😊
Thanks for all the support @fam_socialfinance @dynasty @gigi_dam @john_lim_my definitely feel more confident launching my products! 😊
Good call, I'll add #2 Use animated PFP like the one used by Clustr team members. Cheers!
@hafeezcae It's really cool, isn't it? I immediately remembered the name of the logo after seeing it 2-3 times.
@hafeezcae how do you create one?
thanks for sharing! I completely agree with you!
Yeah, exactly!! Everyone needs other support, don't hesitate to reach out.
I totally agree, community is key.
More like! Full tank.
Be an active community member.
Do you have a concrete example of a nice way to reach out?
Great tip i completely agree with you! thanks for sharing.
Read the discussions. A lot of super interesting tips there
To be honest, I didn't believe in this platform and this dogma at the very beginning. But to my personal surprise, this is a real thumb rule. Moreover, it works:)
Being brand new to PH, this is great. Thanks!
For sure, I love the PH Community for being very supportive!
Be kind and give back to the ProductHunt community, and you'll reap the rewards it has to offer. Working both ways is the key to success. 🤗
Engaging in conversations with the community is key. It makes personalities behind the team visible and allows you to collect valuable feedback.
