There have been quite a few death related products shared in the communtiy. I’m a big fan of Patrick Collinson of Stripe and he’s well known for having his laptop background be a countdown to his estimated death, pretty cool though kinda morbid

What I already found : Death related products seen on Product Hunt : Check : Population Project, You Will Die in X Weeks, You're getting old, Death Clock and WeCroak If you see products didn't listed here, I would be happy to discover them 🙌🏻

Hi @abadesi, This discussion + tooyoo Launch = could be a great trendy discussion for tomorrow All Saints day 🙌🏻 Just an idea that could help us understand how people are confortable about this topic too 😊

Great question! I work in end-of-life planning, so I think about death quite a lot. I’d say that while I’ve grown more comfortable with it over time, it’s always a complex topic—it can bring up a mix of acceptance, curiosity, and sometimes discomfort, depending on the day. For me, becoming comfortable with death isn’t about having no fear; it’s about embracing it as a part of life and letting it shape how I live. It’s a grounding force that reminds me to focus on what truly matters, take risks, and let go of things that don’t serve me. Also, if you’re interested in exploring your own relationship with mortality, I’m launching Death Archetypes soon—a personality test to help people reflect on their perspective around life and death. I’d love for you to check it out!
