What type of products are worth of posting in December?
December is the month that officially closes the launch chapter of the year, so you still have a last chance to come up with something that will get attention.
Such December classics are definitely products with these narratives:
Wrap-ups
Advent Calendars
Most searched topics
Prognosis for the coming year
Productivity and health apps (ready for New Year's resolutions)
Do you have in mind any product that is appropriate to come up with in December?
Or do you have in mind to launch something special?
Feel free to share.

MultiDrive
We’re launching software for backups, cloning, and securely erasing drives 😄
Definitely not a typical Christmas topic, but it’s something people need anyway: before selling old drives, upgrading their laptops, or just making safe backups. I hope it will do well 🤞
But I really like the topics you mentioned, they definitely bring a festive mood.

@tetiana_hryshmanovska "erasing drives" – I am kinda scared because once I erased my 1TB disc full of my memories :D
MultiDrive
@busmark_w_nika :D
With MultiDrive you can’t erase drive C, and before erasing any drive it always asks for confirmation - you have to manually type that you agree. But I totally understand your pain! I once deleted my own drive using another tool on the market and then spent the whole evening reinstalling everything 😄

For anyone who celebrates the end of December as a new year, definitely products that reflect promise, positivity, and possibility!

@dmitcha Can't wait! :)
Wait, people create advent calendars as products on here? That's interesting, but I can't help but wonder if some of those time or season-based products are relying too much on being topical rather than bringing value and being fresh. Maybe that's the wrong way to look at it?

@r221 Once my friend created a coding Advent challenge. It had around 100+ users :)
Love this breakdown, Nika!
The "New Year's resolutions" angle is spot-on. I've noticed a pattern: productivity and dev tools launched in late December often get a second wave of attention in early January when people actually start executing their resolutions.
For developer-focused products specifically, December can be great because:
- Devs have downtime during holidays to explore new tools
- Companies freeze feature releases, so devs experiment with side projects
- "New year, new stack" mentality kicks in
I'm actually planning to launch a Next.js starter kit around this time - curious if others here have seen this pattern play out?
