[ChangeLog] December 11 — Leaderboard redesign, mobile @-mentions

by

👉 @-mentions now have autocomplete on mobile —Tag your friends to bring them in on the conversation!

mobile mentions  

👉 New launch-day dashboard for makers with social link tracking — Track your points and ranking over the course of the day and see which social posts are bringing you the most support.

launch dashboard  

👉 Redesigned leaderboard with points — The leaderboard now displays points, which are based primarily on upvotes with comments as an additional factor. Points determine the ranking. In the past we’ve displayed upvotes, which are only one component of the ranking, and this caused lots of confusion (”Why is my launch ranked lower than a launch with fewer upvotes?”).

leaderboard  

👉 Renamed "Topics" to Launch Tags" to be more descriptive — We have two main taxonomies at Product Hunt. Launch Tags are topical tags like AI, Productivity, iOS app, Open Source, Audio that are relevant for launches. Your product hub (which contains all your launches) belongs to one or more Product Categories. These are organized by use case, to help people find the best product for them. E.g. Code review tools, AI databases, SEO tools.∫

Redoing the whole categorization system is not good! I can't find or sort nearly as well. Why change a working system?

Hey there! The leaderboard redesign sounds like a cool update. It’s about time it got a fresh look, right? And adding mobile @-mentions is super handy. No more waiting to get back to my computer to tag someone. These changes should make the community feel more connected and interactive. Looking forward to checking them out!

Hey there! The leaderboard got a fresh new look on Dec 11, making it easier to see who's crushing the game. And now you can use @-mentions on mobile too, which is super handy for tagging friends. These changes make the platform more user-friendly overall.

Oh, that’s pretty cool! The leaderboard redesign must make it more fun to compete with friends. And mobile @-mentions will definitely help us tag people more easily. It’s about time they updated these features. Can’t wait to try them out! Hope they fixed some bugs too.
