Dear Product Hunt...

Dear Product Hunt,

It's me, Product Hunt. Happy (almost) New Year! Tomorrow’s the first day of 2020 and I'm so excited for all the stuff we have planned over the next year.

As I'm writing this, I know you’re hard at work prepping the launch of something new in 2020. I hope everyone likes those pancakes you’re cookin’ up.

You’ve also been thinking a lot about how to bring Makers around the world together IRL. I can’t wait to see how the huge global meetup in January goes over with the community. And I'm of course excited for the Golden Kitty Awards. Am I nominated? 😉

Anyways, I’m glad you were born in the 2010s and I hope you have a great 2020.

Love,
Product Hunt

Grow your app with Setapp: revenue, users, & AI

You shipped the app. Now comes the part nobody warns you about.

Billing across dozens of countries. Licensing agreements. Tax compliance. Customer support for users you haven't met yet. And if your app does anything with AI, add provider management and infrastructure costs to the pile. None of that is why you started building — but all of it is now your problem.

Setapp is trying to take it off your plate.

You probably know Setapp as the subscription marketplace — one monthly price, hundreds of Mac apps. On May 21st, they turned toward developers. The pitch is simple: list your app, reach users who are already looking, and let Setapp handle the business layer.
