Do you support daily launches?

No.
Unpopular opinion, but you should ONLY support products or apps you have used extensively.
Otherwise the maker of said product might see it as a win with no REAL feedback.
Negative constructive feedback is the best feedback, if you don't think so, you're not going to get anywhere, nor is the app you blindly endorse/upvote.

@kiakamgar How can you extensively use product which is going live for the first time?
@vladimir_zivkovic I don't understand. Do you mean, how do I find apps if I don't upvote or endorse on PH?
@kiakamgar Most of them are going live for the first time here, very few are established products in daily launches.
@vladimir_zivkovic I find a product I need, or my clients need, then I use it. Once I'm happy with it, I will recommend it.
What I do not agree with, is to upvote or endorse a products I haven't used.
It's not rocket science.
Does that go against what PH is for? Not in the slightest.
What I don't like with this platform is the very fact of trying to gamify the reach of a product for the sake of it.
Being at the #1 spot doesn't mean the app is good, it mean it's been gamed to get there by reaching out to people and asking them to blindly upvote it.
Now tell me that doesn't happen.
@kiakamgar Yes, I do agree with it. There is a lot of blind upvotes around here especially invited ones, but that's why is called product launch. You launch your product to get in front of the eyes of potential user, you invite people to check it out and if the people like the idea they upvote it. But I don't think it is proving the product success by any means.
I'm always on supporting launches. There seem to be so many interesting and useful ones to discover and try out.
@vladimir_zivkovic, thank you, but I only started five days ago. I would like to reach 365 days
As much as possible - plenty of interesting products that launch every week! Nice to be part of the early-user base.
Definitely, so many amazing projects were launched here and became big and popular, it is nice to upvote and think "probably, a star is born".
Absolutely I'm all for supporting daily launches on Product Hunt. It's a great platform for discovering new and innovative products. Do you?
