Projects supporting BLM 🖤

Makers have been busy creating incredible things to support the BLM movement. Here’s a recap on what we’ve seen so far on Product Hunt these past few weeks:

Dose created a safe community to amplify Black voices and educate through storytelling
EatOkra is an app to find and order from Black owned restaurants
BLM Badge is a customizable badge you can add to your website to collect donations for BLM
Hustle Crew Membership has workshops, resources and case studies on how to be an ally and support Black people
The Black Owned Businesses is a curated list of Black owned businesses in multiple industries
Crystal is like a RateMyProfessor for police officers and departments to increase transparency and community involvement

And ICYMI, here's a thread celebrating the Black makers in our community. 🖤

Black Owned Businesses

Highlight

Today Josh Constine, former TechCrunch Editor-At-Large turned investor at SignalFire, is sharing his stack.

This includes a few apps that helped him lose 20 lbs this year, a portable party speaker for DJ parades, and his favorite "adult chocolate milk".

Inference should feel simple. Once AI hits production traffic, you're really managing routing, retries, observability, GPU bills running while nobody's home.

DigitalOcean Serverless Inference handles all of that in one API — OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible, 55+ models including Claude, DeepSeek, Qwen, and Llama. Scale to zero when you're not using it. Pay per token when you are. VPC and zero data retention on by default.

230 tokens/sec on DeepSeek V3.2 — 3.9× faster than AWS Bedrock (Artificial Analysis). Runs on the same bill as your databases and Kubernetes. One less thing to reconcile.
