Solo devs on PH — does team size actually matter for rankings?
by•
I've been lurking on Product Hunt for a while before launching my own app today.
One pattern I keep noticing: products with bigger teams — or at least teams that look bigger — tend to dominate the leaderboard.
More makers = more built-in upvoters on day one.
As a solo dev who shipped everything alone (design, code, store listing, this very post), it makes me wonder if PH is structurally better suited for startups than indie builders.
Or am I wrong?
Would love to hear from other solos who've had a good launch here.
Roast it, upvote it, or just tell me your PH solo launch story. 👇
