My experience with some of the above:
Beta Page: Easy to get listed. Not a lot of traffic.
Betalist: It used to have enormous traffic earlier. But recently we listed on our of product and did not get so much traffic. However, the quality of traffic is good.
Hacker News: You can post a "Show HN" or "Ask HN" asking for feedback on your Product or landing page. Don't expect traffic or conversions. But you can get great feedback.

@akramquraishi Thank you for sharing your experience
I've tried BetaList, and I was quite surprised in a good way. To be honest, I didn't except anything from it.
Cons: you submit your startup but if you don't pay, you have no idea when it'll be featured.
Pro: it's free, super easy to submit, and it brings a few signups. Actually, we even found new international partners thanks to it!
I'll give a try to the others this summer, follow me on PH if you want to be updated, I'll do a full feedback then :)

@benoit_collet Interesting, According to betalist is a great option

I have never experienced launching on any other platforms, But thanks for the list. I will check this out.
Hey @tanmaymakode 👋 Nice list, maybe you could have a look at my side project Owwly (https://owwly.com)?
We do the same thing and present products in clean and tidy form :)

@piotr_bartoszek Wow, This is amazing, Really loved your way of presentation and UI
Such a great list. Thanks!
Does anyone have experience launching across multiples all at once? Or is it better to concentrate energy into one launch at a time?
BeGuided AI
@brenna_donoghue I would prefer to focus on 1 platform first.
@tanmaymakode thanks!
Thanks for the list!
Did you get from them traffic?

@robertomorais Betalist is the best option, But actually here's a secret,
If your product is successful on PH it would automatically get listed on some platforms, This happened to me when I launched flipclock . It was automatically listed on launchingnext. Which was really amazing
@tanmaymakode great list. Do you have any experience with them that you can share? Which one would you recommend on those five? I would love another indie hacker community to join (only using PH and private discord groups at the moment).
@robertomorais @tanmaymakode That's really great to know! thanks for sharing the info. Do you actively engage with any, or use them more for promotion?

@robertomorais @laura_a_ciccone I actually don't engage much, Just use it sometimes for promotions, My main focus is PH now
Zappi Ad Predictor
Interesting! I've found Beta list and Beta page to both be pretty sterile communities. Anyone had more positive experiences?
thanks for the list
