@figmadesign thought they were building an internal collaboration tool (Figjam), but they actually built a new place for their community to show off its infinite creativity.

- Some personal news: I'm transitioning out of my CEO role at Product Hunt, and the talented @rajivayyangar will be leading the company’s next chapter.
- We've been talking to a lot of users lately about how we can demystify the process of launching on Product Hunt. We're improving the product flow as we speak, but in the meantime, here are some things you should know before your Product Hunt launch 🚀 (1/6)
- .@ProductHunt has always been at the heart of the maker community and now with the help of Prologue, @a16z and @Sequoia, we are doubling down to make Product Hunt bigger and better than ever.
- Wordle has become a beloved part of my morning routine; I swap results with family, friends, and coworkers every day. So excited for this happy ending for Josh (reddit alum and the overall nicest human)! To the NYT: pls don't paygate 🙏An update on Wordle
- One week after the @ProductHunt Golden Kitty Awards and the numbers are in: - 102% increase in attendees YoY - 90% of nominated companies attended (up 22% YoY) - 2x newsletter growth leading up to the event - 3x Twitter follower growth on event day
- This week @ProductHunt flew to Cape Cod from nine different countries for our first offsite in 2.5 years. Too many s’mores, karaoke songs, games of monopoly deal, and inside jokes to count and there’s some real magic in how close the team feels now ✨
- When I took the helm at PH, I was surprised how high mobile usage was, even though it was a fraction of our prod & dev focus. Since then we've hired a stellar mobile team & today we release the new and improved (all native) apps for iOS and Android ⤵️ producthunt.com/posts/product-…
- Product Hunt's new apps for iOS & Android are just about ready for some external testers! As part of the beta, you'll be part of a private group where you'll share feedback and feature requests and work directly with the team to make the app better pre- and post-launch.
- Yes! And we created the product hub pages to consolidate all that link authority to a single page per product. Since doing that, we've seen increased traffic to maker websites across the board.
Replying to @dannypostma13/ Launch on Product Hunt. It doesn't matter if you become #1. Being in last place is still a win. Why? Because Product Hunt gives you a link with a domain authority (DR) of 90/100. The higher the DR, the stronger the effect. - Can't say how excited I am to work on a product that inspires me (and so many others) every day. @ProductHunt is the heartbeat of tech and we're just getting started.Thrilled to have @ahiggz join the Product Hunt team as GM! She spent the last decade leading product teams at Reddit, Clearbit, and SEGA. Product Hunt has big plans for 2021, and we're hiring across the board. Reach out to learn more! producthunt.com/stories/produc…
- If you're an entrepreneur working on something awesome, we want to hear from you. Yes you. 15 more days to submit your application for @hyper_ Season 2! 🚀
00:00 - Shahed has entered the chat 🙌 Very excited to work alongside him and the rest of the @hyper_ team as we help founders build the next generation of startups.
