@richw no, not really. Click-baity posts or posts that appeal to newer builders do seem to do the best, but it's not a hard rule.

I'd say it's worth checking out for you, if only because stock stuff seems to do well over there. Might be because there is more people on IH with a primary goal of making money, whereas over here it's more product-centric.

no.

does it take activity and a following to get traction on posts you make?

Fabian Maume · Answer

Yes. I'm posting there from time to time. Also following the newsletter.

Stephen · Answer

@hazel_mathew you can list your project but it's mostly for you to post articles about it and people can follow along to be updated about it.

For the most part, it's a community much like PH but with more people and a different tone. Good place for help and advice for new builders.

Stephen · Answer

More so than here. I might be saying something sacrilegious but I prefer the community there as opposed to PH.

I do have my issues with IH of course. I think that the demographic skewed towards beginner, but that's largely a result of it having a large user base.
