This poll made me think for a moment about what would be a good feature to incorporate into PH.
While not an ideal bookmarking experience there exists an option for it already, and that is to use your browser.
For finer bookmarks, one could use the share option on a comment, copy the link, and bookmark that. The finer option doesn't work in the iOS app though - not sure about the Android version, there you'd have to share the entire discussion in a note or something similar.
Photos in discussions, as I just found out reading the comments below already work on the platform.
As for links in the bio, I'm not sold on the idea. While it would be convenient, I cannot think of a reason apart from convenience as to why it would be a good feature.
Chat instinctively feels like a feature that, for better or worse, could work on PH. It could be detrimental if all it would be used for is to spam users for upvotes.
Depending on how a chat was incorporated I can see the good outweighing the bad. For that reason, I'm reluctantly voting for chat.
Share
@thinkverse IDNK. I was there late and haven't experienced that.
@thinkverse "reluctantly voting for chat" :D I have heard that this one was present in the past and they removed it for some reason :D
@busmark_w_nika Interesting. Didn't know PH had chat before. Wonder why they decided to remove it. If it was due to spam, or maybe a technical reason.
@busmark_w_nika @thinkverse Ryan the founder of PH once stated that PH had DM, but i was removed due to vote request spam
Launching soon!
Nice poll discussion Nika!! Difficult to choose one. ;)
@priyanka27 Thanks, Priyanka! :) I already chose :D
BTW, when is your launch? :)
Launching soon!
@busmark_w_nika I chose one of course! :D Actually, a few features are currently being tested. Once they pass the tests successfully, we can launch.
@priyanka27 Then, inform me. I would like to see the final version. :)
I think Photos can be added to discussions using HTML. However, the ability to upload photos natively would be easier. :)
@rohanrecommends Yes, they can be but it would be better UI/UX for a regular user who doesn't have experience with coding. :) This one I noticed in discussions and it was cited quite often.
@rohanrecommends Can't agree more!
I think you can use images in discussions now:
You just need use image tag but upload your image somewhere.
Launching soon!
4th one is a trick question ๐ nice try tho ๐ # ph-venteran-in-the-house
@sentry_co I thought you knew how to do it. ๐ But I somehow managed it. ๐
I think chat is the best option!
@boris_moris44 Would you be there more often than on LI or Twitter? :D Or Messenger, WA? :D
A chat feature would be the best option, although I'm not sure it wouldn't turn into a constant stream of requests for upvotes from everyone to everyone and especially for hunters with a large following ๐
Bookmarks also sound nice; sometimes, people share cool tips here, but I always forget to bookmark them in the browser.
@michaelshver As for chat: yeah, you would be bombarded. On LI, I am constantly getting those messages. Let's imagine PH. :D
I would appreciate bookmarks the most :)
It would be convenient to have a search to find people.
@sergeipetrov I think that it is available in the search feature, but detailed filtering would be a good option. :-)
@busmark_w_nika Yes, now the search is not very convenient, in my opinion.
I've voted chat, but i'm conflicted. Although i'd love to directly communicate with people on here, i'd be worried it would start looking too much like Linkedin
@callum_jones1 It would be worse :D
Launching soon!
Chat would be crazy! Super fun maybe, but I'm going with bookmarks (:
@alvarovillalb_ so we are in the same team: bookmarks! ๐โโ๏ธ๐โโ๏ธ
I liked the most for Product Hunt is its now the place to discover theโnext big thingsโ in tech. Every day, it curates a list of the top products and startups that people haven't heard of yet and lets a widening yet select group of members upvote, comment and discuss.
Chat for sure. There's a lot of people coming to Linkedin just to chat and we could just do it over here
@pedrofonseca17 Do you think that people wouldn't be spammed? ๐
@busmark_w_nika hmm maybe, that's a fair point. At least give us the option and we as user decide if we want to have it activated for example.
Or maybe a "Ask to start a conversation" button and only if accepted you could send messages.
@pedrofonseca17 This is a good point. I think that IG, LI and Twitter have this one. :-)
photos would be cool
@max_avery videos as well! :D
Chat would be pretty cool actually.
@brandon_maddick How many messages from PH users do you get on LI and Twitter? (In order to upvote?)
@busmark_w_nika very few because I have very few followers haha however I have connected with a couple of people from PH and would message them on LI first before thinking to come here.
@brandon_maddick When you will get more followers, you will also receive dozens DMs :D and then it will be harder to filter them out :D
Launching soon!
Bookmark seems a great to feature to remark some comments
@pabloroig_clous I also wish this one. ๐ฅน
I was conflicted between chat and bookmarks, my worry about chat is the amount of spam it could potentially generate.
Bookmarks seem useful, sometimes I just want to go back to a conversation because there was some useful advice in there but I have difficulty finding the conversation.
@asmitha_rathis1 Come to the team with bookmarks :D chat sounds spammy :D
