What's going on Product Hunt!
Thanks for the share @ow and thanks for the heads up @rrhoover.
If you'd like in on the private beta, I put together a special invite url for Product Hunters which I'll leave up for a few days (discussing a product is kind of useless if you can't get in, right?):

Would love to hear thoughts/feedback about the product, and would be happy to answer any questions.
Thanks, @alexshye! Love the code "hunt-this" :)
We've talked a bit about Soulmix privately but I didn't ask you this question: What's the biggest surprise you've found building the product and community?
Honestly, Soulmix is pretty early right now, with me and a few friends sharing stuff, so no huge surprises yet.
As you know @rrhoover, but people on Product Hunt may not, is that what you see now is the result of a huge pivot. Soulmix started as a community for sharing and curating content related to living a good life. Along the way, I got tired of curating content within that niche, and realized that I just wanted a general platform for curating anything I find on the web. Give it a few weeks/months, and I'm sure there will be some big surprises coming up.
On a meta level, the biggest surprise has been realizing how hard it is to build product and community. I have massive respect for good product people and good community managers.
Excited to see where you take it next Alex. Would love to see it pick up steam as there's a lot of really solid content being written around life hacking, health, wellness etc but no good curation of that content.
Yup, totally agree @DavidSpinks . Lots of great content is being produced (in lifehacking/health, but much more!), but the content seems ephemeral in our daily feeds. There should be a good way to curate and organize the best stuff, and hopefully Soulmix can help solve part of the problem!
I've started curating some of my favorite articles on personal development, and will def have more as time goes on:

Would love to see what you would curate in the lifehacking space.. and of course, also in the food space! :)
