Hello everyone, which do you think is the best day to launch a new product? I would like people to have time to “play with it”, should I launch during weekend? 🤔

someone should run the stats to see if theres any correlation to launch time and upvotes lol

depends what your aiming to achieve, and your support system.
week days, specifically tues-thurs are the most active. launches with a big support system who can bring in the upvotes to keep them at the top, which will get more visitors.
weekends are less active, and don't require as big of a support system.
so if you don't have much existing support, you could be at the bottom of the list during the weekdays. where on the weekends you could be near the top. so if you're aiming for top 5 product of the day, you'll want to check out how many upvotes you can get to help pick which day to launch
It depends:
The days with the highest traffic are Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. However those days also have really high competition, so avoid them if you don't have a pre-existing audience.
If you are in B2B space, avoid launching on the weekend as it will be hard to get engagement.
If you want a low competition day for B2B : go for Friday.
BTW: you might be interested in a no-frill launch: https://medium.com/@fabian-maume...
