Yesterday, @pamela_arienti mentioned that her Product Hunt launch ended up somewhere in the middle, and one of the main lessons for her is that the connections gained on the platform are much more important than the placement.

I agree with this statement. Although...

Now I thought I'd ask:

To continue what @steveb started last May:

Building a team or want to join a startup?

Last night I opened LinkedIn for a moment, and at that moment, someone wrote to me who is going to relaunch a product after a year and a half. (Yes, I do not have anything to work on Friday night, don't blame me, I do not have a social life) :D

Needless to say, a lot has changed on this platform in a year.

Pre-launch Dashboard

We have an all new pre-launch dashboard to help manage your scheduled launches. As soon as you schedule your launch, which you should always do, you'll land on the new dashboard. It gives you a centralized place to check the status of your launch, quickly make any changes you need to, and see helpful tips about what to include to have a successful launch! If you have a scheduled launch already, you can quickly find the pre-launch dashboard from My products

Shoutouts Update

Every weekday Sip surfaces the most interesting and important tech stories of the day, from breaking news to profiles on favorite tech products. Stories arrive once a day so you can stay informed and remain productive.

A few days ago I saw some posts here about:

the number of discussions is decreasing,

sometimes they are approved later,

that there is "other community growth" I don't know what was meant by that and I'm just guessing.

Finding the right cofounder is hard and it s even harder to know where to start. This thread is for anyone who s either:

Looking for a cofounder to join your project or company
Looking to join a startup as a cofounder, early builder, or technical lead

AI workflow automation tools help you design, run, and evolve workflows that actually take action not just suggest what to do next. Some use AI to make workflows easier to build. Others embed AI directly into execution so workflows can handle ambiguity, make decisions, and adapt as they run. The strongest tools do both.

This definition excludes tools where AI only generates static workflows and then steps aside. It also excludes general assistants that never meaningfully participate in end-to-end execution.

Yesterday, we discussed how many times it is beneficial to launch on this platform.

With each launch, there is a benefit of "exposing yourself".
