YourStack

For those of you asking why we keep talking about pancakes on Twitter, now you know. 😄🥞 Today we're opening a beta for YourStack, a new place to share the products you use and love. We're building a home to answer those common questions: "What's on your homescreen?" I just added byte. "Which smart home security system do you have?" I use the camera-less Minut system. "What tools do you use to manage a distributed team?" Humble Dot has been a useful addition for us. "What's your favorite book on psychology?" I really enjoyed The Courage to be Disliked. In many ways, YourStack isn't a new idea. We've been thinking about this problem space for years. We tried once and failed. Ask Product Hunt was our first attempt and in hindsight it's clear why it didn't work (I'll write a postmortem about it sometime). With those learnings and the last 6 years building Product Hunt, we're creating an entirely new site and brand. It has the same kittenish feel as Product Hunt but much more people-centric. As with any social product, there's a lot of nuance and iterations required to get it right. But we'd love for your early feedback. Create a profile and feel free to send us your questions/ideas here, on Twitter, or email me directly at ryan@producthunt.com. 😄

The waitlist is completely overplayed. It was cool with Mailbox, now it isn't. I went on the site to try to use it *right now* - don't make me wait with a tired growth tactic.

Wasn’t this the point of Product Hunt in the first place? This seems like Product Hunt within Product Hunt 🤔

Twitter only signup?? Am I going to have to wait years to be able to login with something other than Twitter or Facebook the way I did with Product Hunt? it REALLY doesn't take long to implement a comprehensive registration solution but let's see what happens. However the fact that you still can't even signup for Product Hunt natively doesn't bode well.

went through onboarding now it says i'm on the waitlist 😩

Love the idea from the beginning and YourStack helps discover new products people who I know use frequently. But what I specifically love about YourStack is: 1. The comments section where I can see why people use their stack. This brings a sense of why I need to use. 2. The discoverability factor of new products people I love use. For example, now I know why and what Naval, Ryan and some awesome people uses in their daily life. Great design and overall I love Ryan and the whole PH team's ship first mentality and attack on the features post launch. Congratulations to everyone who put so much effort on YourStack 🎊 🎉 🙏

Excited this is live! Congrats on the beta launch. Inviting to get in. The only bad news is announcing our launch on the same day 😆
