I went for passwordless only with #beanvest
Some people did not like it.
Now I'm using SSO only for #melies and it satisfies most people.
So I would say you're pretty good with passwordless + SSO (I would add Microsoft/Linkedin for B2B depending on the audience)

Maybe. If people can't access the product directly they don't feature you on the homepage. There's also a list of things they don't feature: help.producthunt.com/en/artic…

Thanks! Unfortunately, it was actually third but got removed from the homepage for hours until I removed the waitlist, so it impacted the number of upvotes a lot

Yup. I don't know why but it has disappeared from the homepage :/

Ok I've got an answer... Apparently this is because I've got a waitlist.

Yes you're right, It's not as impactful as it used to be.
I'll launch tomorrow anyway, but I was curious to know what people think :)

Haha yes. I'm hoping at least there should not be a big corp releasing something.

I don't know if it's related, but maybe use your own domain instead of stripe-app-production-5848.up.railway.app for your API?

It's all solved now, thank you for your help!

I've never really used Product Hunt as a user, only to launch things.

It was cool when everyone launched with 0 user to get some early feedback. Now everyone waits to have users to get upvotes & pay for advertising.
It has become useless except for getting a high DR backlink.
I mean even @levelsio is not posting his own projects there anymore.

I prefer to focus on real acquisition channels.
And for the community part, it's way better here on WIP.

yeah I miss the old one :(
AI has taken over PH, they need an invite only or something

I completely agree with you. Recently after actively spending months on PH, I can say other Indie Hacker communities like WIP and IH are way better than PH community which is kinda become like social media influence crap. Most of the discussions only happen to gain followers and benefit launch upvote count rather than genuine feedback oriented which it used to be.
