We keep seeing things like AI and LLM. But I'm happy about technology products that go beyond the occasional. For example, today I read that Aura is introducing a $499 e-ink digital photo frame that allows you to work without a cable.

I was also happy with the @Flowtica Scribepen from @zaczuo .

Curious what the community is running for authentication/authorization in their apps (e.g. Auth0, Supabase Auth, Clerk, Firebase Auth, Cognito, etc.)

A few things I'd love to hear your take on:

• What provider are you using and what's your primary stack? (e.g. Next.js + Clerk, Go + Auth0, etc.)

• What's the one thing that surprised you , good or bad ?

• Would you make the same call today? Especially curious if you've hit scaling pain.

For context: I'm building a B2C application with my own database layer, and currently in the process of evaluating which authentication provider best fits the architecture. Trying to understand how others are handling the auth <> database relationship and what influenced your final decision.

Chipmaker Nvidia announced this week it will be investing up to $100 billion (with a B) in OpenAI to help it build out its computing power. This follows OpenAI s move earlier this month to buy $300B in computer power from Oracle.

AI dev tools like Lovable & Bolt.new are great, but are they missing something you really need?

• A must-have feature that s not there?

• A pain point they haven t solved?

Drop your thoughts below! Let s discuss.

Many products start as experiments built at night or on weekends.

At first, there s no pressure just curiosity and momentum.

But at some point, expectations creep in: users, revenue goals, support, roadmap decisions.

I am attempting to observe what you use for coding. I have come across many tools on Product Hunt + Web, but I am fairly certain I have missed quite a bit.
I divided them into "traditional" and "specialised".

Traditional AI models:

I've read a lot of conflicting views on this ... I'd love some advice.

We're about to relaunch our news platform ... which has been locked behind an "invite code" for a few months in ~beta state ... and we'd like to create some buzz!!..

Hey everyone,
I m currently building a small SaaS product, and I started thinking seriously about monitoring.
Most tools (Datadog, New Relic, etc.) feel built for larger teams.
Powerful, yes but also complex and expensive.
So I m curious:
What do you actually monitor in your small or solo SaaS?
Do you track uptime only?
Do you track latency?
Do you rely on logs?
At what point does monitoring start feeling like overkill?
I m trying to understand what is truly essential vs. what is just enterprise noise .
Not selling anything just genuinely curious how other indie builders approach this.
Would love to hear your setups.
