There's lots of talk of when to launch a product, but what do you find is the best time to post a discussion on product hunt?
I find the early mornings like at 5:00 am is usually the best

My usual posting time was 12:01 a.m. However, nowadays the PH discussion update has been delayed for me. 🤔

I think it depends on the moderator's mood, not sure if they approve the discussions in chronological order or just randomly.
Two of my discussions didn't get approved, at least that's what I noticed, they were about the increasing number of fake AI accounts and how the most popular discussion at that time was filled with AI replies and upvotes and it didn't go down.
@chris_sarca Ah, that's frustrating. At least if you have a more popular account they know it's not AI
@richard_gao2 I don't think there's any optimal time to post a discussion. Many a times, it's the mods that hold up a topic for moderation, and other times, I see that a discussion reaches the 'Popular' section in almost no time or moderation.
Quite agree with what @david_babins has also mentioned.
