Has anyone else noticed their Kitty Points dropping on Product Hunt? 😵

Question

I’ve been pretty active, but recently, I’ve seen a decline, and I’m wondering if it’s due to deleted accounts, inactive users, or something else entirely. It’s not about the points, but it does make me curious about how the system works.

Have you experienced this? Do you have any tips/ideas on keeping them stable or insights into why this happens?

Let’s figure it out together! 🐾

Every four years, on the halving day, the amount of new Kitty-points created gets cut in half 😸

Is Product Hunt again doing an update or something else I cannot figure out @rajiv_ayyangar any news?

Not noticed but why it so?

@sentry_co Yeah... I’m glad it’s not real coins. Just imagine what it would’ve been like—all that hard work gone to waste to earned this money. 😸

I lost 2000 coins when PH updated 9 months ago, and I never got them back. Now I'm back to 2000 points. I'm not dropping anyone this time—let's see what happens.

I had a similar experience last month. When I reached out to the support team, they mentioned that my account was flagged due to legitimacy concerns, as I was using an AI-filtered avatar :(

Yeah, I've seen that too. It's a bit weird, right? Maybe they're tweaking the algorithm or something. I wouldn't worry too much though; it’s probably just a temporary thing. If it keeps up, maybe shoot them an email or post in their community forum. They’re usually pretty responsive!

Yeah, I've noticed it too. My Kitty Points have been dropping for no apparent reason. It's a bit frustrating because I've been trying to build them up. Not sure if it's a bug or if there's some new rule we're not aware of. Anyone have any insights?

Yeah, I've seen that too. It's a bit confusing and kind of frustrating. Maybe they’re adjusting the algorithm or something? I hope they explain it soon. It’s not a great feeling when you see your points drop without any clear reason. Anyone have any ideas or insights?
