Has Product Hunt changed? How is the featured section determined?

6
•
I launched my product today. In the past, the products in the featured section used to change constantly, and we would appear as well. What has changed? Are they doing this manually?

I asked the same question a few days ago because I was very surprised about how my launch went Someone shared this link with me : https://help.producthunt.com/en/... It's really informative, disappointing, but informative

@melmouk My product fills all checks but still not featured. So I think they featured only what they want

@hadzhaoglu Yes, as long as it’s a manual process, I think they favor product that they like the most among those who fills the criteria That’s a shame, a rotation while upvote are not available or something like this would be better imo

There's been a lot of complaints and discussions about this recently, see e.g. https://www.producthunt.com/disc...

I think it's still largely determined by upvotes and comments, but the mods likely curate it more now to feature a diverse mix of products. Some AI assistance in surfacing high potential hunts could help keep it fresh while still community-driven. Curious to hear from others who've been around PH longer!
