Ever revisit a product months after launch and barely recognize it?

Looked back at a few products I upvoted earlier this year, most don't look or work the way they did on launch day. Features got cut, pricing changed, sometimes the whole audience shifted.

Makes me wonder how much a launch day version should really count for since we judge off a snapshot the product often outgrows within weeks.

Curious if others track products after launch, or if attention just moves on. Has one you dismissed early ever surprised you later?
