If Product Hunt had a swipe feature, what would be on your profile?
Imagine if Product Hunt had a swipe featureâa bit like a dating app, but for products and makers. What would you highlight on your profile to grab attention and make people swipe right?
Iâd probably go for an eye-catching title paired with a creative prompt to introduce my productâsomething that sparks curiosity and starts a conversation. A fun GIF or quirky tagline might also help me stand...

Whatâs a subscription youâll never cancel, and whatâs one youâve dropped recently?
For me, I donât see myself canceling my GPT subscription anytime soon. I use it regularly for generating marketing and SEO-related content, and itâs been a huge time-saver. But I recently canceled a meal kit subscription. It was convenient at first, but I realized I wasnât using it enough to justify the cost.
What about you? Whatâs a subscription you canât live without, and whatâs one youâve...

How do you feel about the TikTok ban in the US?
Iâve seen people joking about the ban, saying goodbye to their personal 'Chinese spy' and that theyâll miss it, even calling themselves 'TikTok refugees' đ
But on a serious note, how do you feel about the potential ban? Will you switch to platforms like Instagram Reels or YouTube Shorts, or take a break from short-form video content altogether?

Whatâs a piece of advice you once ignored but now swear by?
For me, it was 'Launch before you feel ready.' As an entrepreneur, I used to hold back, waiting for the perfect product or plan. But Iâve learned that starting early, even when things arenât perfect, allows you to adapt and grow faster with real feedback.
