I have decided not to release Product Hunt for new products in the future. About 7 years ago, I really enjoyed browsing this platform. Recently, I just thought Mole could launch on it, so I went to post videos, pictures, and filled out a lot of forms. Finally, when I entered the product page, the first thing I saw was an advertising card on the left that said 5k yuan could help me complete the entire launch, which shocked me. Then, I inserted a banner ad for another product under my product. I have a feeling of eating flies, my carefully prepared publishing page has become a place for others to sell advertisements, but I understand that there will definitely be companies with sufficient budgets that will buy this service. Then I set a time to publish, and even set aside an afternoon to see if there were any new users to ask questions. I answered them in a timely manner, but the funny thing was that I didn't even make it to the homepage. Five years ago, I remember editing my witty comments very crudely, and they could even enter the homepage timeline. A professional friend answered later, saying that it was not caused by the official feature, and that you need to go on this first, and then buy that kind of specialized promotion team service to package it for you before you can take it down. Originally, you also needed to cooperate with the platform performance, buy likes and comments, which surprised me again. How did a good platform become like this. What makes me even angrier is that there have been almost no product exchanges or user feedback, but they have brought me nearly 50 consecutive spam emails in the past few days, probably to help me promote better, or to say that they also have a similar platform for me to list, and even today there are still spam emails coming, which has caused a fishy smell. So this platform is a platform that may seem lively, but in reality, it has little effect. Even if you see that buying 200 likes for $100 can enter the top five services on weekdays, it will not bring you a real user. However, he has supported a team that has helped you become popular on Product Hunt Top. From your description, packaging, cover, video, to the combination and benefit points, he has come up with a complete set of solutions for you. After you pay, you get a false sense of excitement, accompanying Product Hunt to perform. The product becomes his prop, and the release day becomes the performance day. In the end, no one seems to care whether you attract new friends or not. I am actually looking forward to a platform that can provide a truly friendly exchange of products for everyone. When you come and encounter something you are interested in, you can mark it, download it, try it out, and learn about the good aspects of other products. Through friendly communication, after using it, you can even give each other suggestions on where you are doing well and where you need improvement. It's like the utopian feeling of GitHub 10 years ago. People don't pay attention to your packaging and benefits, but a group of people who like to make products gather together to exchange good things, so that good things can be used by more people. I really hope to have such a platform, and I will definitely go shopping every day. I won't post Product Hunt anymore, and of course, I don't recommend my friends to post this thing. Posting on GitHub, X, Youtube, and V2EX are actually very good platforms, which are much simpler than Product Hunt.
