Review of Product Hunt


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Years worth of product launches are gone in one day!

This platform has been a consistently disappointing experience. I have launched over 15 products on Product Hunt since 2023, and many of them were censored.

For a long time, I did not complain but one day, I noticed my scheduled launch was deleted entirely after I had posted about it on LinkedIn the day before. When I reached out via their official support email, the response from their GM of Support, Jake Crump, was dismissive and unprofessional.

Instead of providing any real explanation, he simply repeated we have community guidelines and terms of service, and we can delete content as we wish.

That is not accountability platforms are bound to their own rules just as much as users are. I requested clarification and asked for access to my data multiple times, including directly addressing both the GM and the CEO.


I was ignored completely. Being ghosted after years of contributing to the platform and showcasing original, innovative work is unacceptable and disrespectful to creators.

All of my launches which I worked hard and was proud of are now gone out sore loser spiteful energy.

This behavior reflects very poorly on the leadership and culture of Product Hunt. If this is how they treat creators, then I strongly recommend others to consider alternative platforms. There are far better, more respectful communities out there.
