Product Hunt has always felt like a place where underdog founders can try their luck not with VCs, but with a real community of builders. It reminds me of what made the early internet so special: it was a place where fragmented groups could find each other and power up together. For my personal use, as a maker, historically it s been more about supporting my friends' companies when they had launches and now I use it to keep up with the continues rollout of new tools mostly aimed at makers looking to vibe and make faster.
Right now, I feel anxious for America (and the world) feel from political chaos and our economic prospects. Resilience in our community has been a source of strength. LGBT are also natural contrarians to the status quo to such an extent I would say it is even a builder superpower.
Both AirPods Pro 3 and Ear (3) launched this month. I m curious what folks would get? I really like the design of Ear (3) and I can see myself using the Super Mic on the case a lot but . From seeing all the reviews on the AirPods Pro 3 it seems that their quality of sound, ANC, and microphone is better. So might have to pick those as the winner for me. What does everyone else think?
With the launch of PATTTTERNS v2.1, I wanted to share a behind-the-scenes look at the tech stack. As a solo maker and Design Ops Lead, my goal was to build something highly scalable but with zero monthly overhead.
I often see this tactic on X (where you can create and host your Live Space) + on YouTube. I think that the very first time I saw it when @_maxblade was streaming. Then more and more people started doing it. IMO, it is a good tactic when you have a powerful fanbase/community on a certain platform. Do you think it is a "strong invitation" to participate in upvoting?
What other (unusual) tactics can help?
