What does Product Hunt look for in discussion threads?
by•
I've had two discussion threads rejected on Product Hunt, and I'm genuinely curious about the review process. I understand maintaining quality, but I'd love to know what usually leads to a rejection. Is it the topic, wording, or something else?
For those who've had threads approved, what did you learn that made the difference?

I had a couple of threads refused before the first one got through, so this is just from my own trial and error. The rejected ones read like promotion in some way, or had a product mention in the body. The one that worked was a plain question other people could answer from their own experience, with nothing about my product in it. So my guess is it's less about the topic and more about whether it comes across as a real question or as marketing.
