before the redesign, Product Hunt used to display the number of active days on the main forums. Now they've hidden it and moved it to the user profile, so if a new user joins today, they might not even realize that such a streak counter exists. I miss the old days when the design was simpler :(
@adi_singh5Â I have no explanation why they did it this way, but it's really cool to see how many days you spent on PH and it motivates you a little bit
One thing that hits later: launching is only 20% of the work, the real game is in pre-launch prep and post-launch momentum. At Growstack, we learned early that community building before launch makes all the difference—wish we knew that on day one.

Do you know why they did this?
