Things are changing with the recent removal of the 'Featured | All' toggle on Product Hunt. Now we only see products that are gaining traction which is good for trending products but could make it harder for newer or smaller creators to get noticed. Are we missing out on discovering hidden gems without the option to browse everything???
This change might make things simpler, but it also raises the question of whether it limits opportunities for lesser-known products to shine.

I can still see this toggle. Just click on the "Launches" button in the header.

I still browse more :) Because some good products still can be hidden and I know it :)

@busmark_w_nika Good, but the question is everybody going the same for hidden products?

@hamza_afzal_butt probably not, I am a specific case, as usual :D
Just checked and I'm still seeing the 'Featured | All' toggle too when clicking on 'Launches' in the header. Maybe it's a phased rollout or A/B test on their end? Curious to hear if others are seeing the same. ๐ค
I get why they did it, but it's a bit sad. I loved scrolling through the lesser known
products and finding cool, unique stuff.
This change feels like it favors the big players even more. New creators might struggle to get visibility now.
