It kills me that someone's little half hour project that we will all forget about tomorrow can be the kind of thing that gets featured on Product Hunt.

@inorganik This is how I feel about a lot of things on Product Hunt lately.
@inorganik
It's not the ratio of time-invested-to-exposure that should concern you, it's the ratio of value-to-exposure that's obnoxiously low here.
Who cares how long something took as long as it's useful?

Didn't know it was this easy to get featured on product hunt, brb making an online calculator with a cool domain name "icantfuckingmath"

I suggest you eliminate the randomness after the app has decided. Decisions should be final. If a user clicks multiple times on "Decide for me again", the message should change to "This is why you never accomplish anything." Or something equally blunt.

Simple product, but also a couple of fun and clear monetization strategies. The problem would be making sure people keep coming back, but as long as i book mark it, seems fun

This is a funny little creation, albeit being utterly useless in all cases except entertainment... Some people say that stuff like this should not be on PH, I partially agree. I love the fun, quick, hackathon style creativity of these types of products, and think we need some of these on PH for a good laugh. But the other side is annoyed that projects like this get more attention than fully featured, hard worked, team efforts that are really good creations.
@ourielohayon I tend to side with the makers of novel products, but this is pretty ridiculous. But the real issue is the 209 people who upvoted it. If we stop upvoting, hopefully more meaningful products will come on PH! :)
@ourielohayon one of the things I like most about Product Hunt is the variety (and often surprise) of what I discover every day. Some days you'll find silly sites like this or an innovative and (potentially very impactful) app that helps blind people see.
Upvotes are a demonstration of interest and entirely subjective. I often don't "agree" that the #1 ranked product is really the best or most compelling thing posted in the day, but someone else may think differently. And that's OK.
That said, I'm always open to ideas on how to improve discovery and the homepage (big update coming soon)!
