Which personalities would spice up this platform?
I found faces of famous personalities on Product Hunt.
For example,
or Mark Cuban
Tho, they are not very active, it came to my mind:
Who would you like to see here and maybe ask them something in an AMA?

đ Would love to see MrBeast on here. Curious how heâd approach launching a tech product.

Streak Hunter
SnoopDogg is here? That's wild

@denisss yep, but he is not active. But honestly, I do not know when he would have time for posting :D
@denisss He must have been hi

I think snoop do double g actually launched an album on PH! https://techcrunch.com/2015/05/12/product-hunt-moves-beyond-tech-with-the-launch-of-snoop-doggs-new-bushalbum/
I hadn't actually heard about that though. Is there any funny background story on this, @rrhoover ?
Product Hunt
@catt_marroll haha, yeah. I met Snoop in the EARLY days, before Product Hunt was a company. The short version: SV Angel invited me to "pitch" him and his team over dinner with 5 hours of notice. At the time I wasn't raising and had never formally pitched. But ofc I wasn't going to skip an opportunity to break bread with Snoop.
Fast forward, we did a few fun things with him and his team in those early years. :)
Product Hunt
@catt_marroll @rrhoover What a story! Sounds like wild times :)
Product Hunt
@catt_marroll @rrhoover Not as big as Snoop but I remember in the early days when I first started, I got an email from a certain Jonas brother to help with a launch. That was pretty wild to me
Purposeful Poop
@rrhoover @aaronoleary it's only a matter of time before Bonobo is vibe coding during a boiler room set and launching as an encore :)

If they were real, that had to be cool. I had a comment from Robert Pattinson, but unfortunately, this one was not real :D https://www.linkedin.com/posts/nika-kotlarikova_when-robert-pattinson-tries-to-be-incognito-activity-7214538856623149057-9ULM/

@rrhoover @catt_marroll Those were early days. I am pretty sure that now, the PH would blow with his launch :D :)
App Finder
We also have Sam Altman here and Sundar Pichai, but the have more important things to to probably...

Sam Altman Sundar Pichai @konrad_sx Sam Altman was quite active here (according to Kitty points). :D
App Finder
@busmark_w_nika he hunted some products some years ago, other than that there's nothing to see on his profile, I guess one gets points also for successful launches

@konrad_sx Now, he is too busy to be here :)
@konrad_sx @busmark_w_nika Isn't ChatGPT doing all his work, he should be free. Haha..
A great question Nika.
If Trump could be invited to PH, the discussion here would surely explode.đ„ All products might be divided into two categories: those approved by Trump and those not.đ

@onbing Product Hunt Civil War :D
@onbing I would say that there was no prediction at all. One day something is on, the next day - nobody knew what was going to happen.
minimalist phone: creating folders
@onbing @theonebroker that's life. No certainty.
Snoop is the OG đž First time I heard about PH was something related to Snoop, actually. Way back when.
minimalist phone: creating folders
@sentry_co When was it? :D
Around the beginning of producthunt so probably around 2016. The PH influencers back then were funny. There was this one guy. Who just said: "Dope đŹ" on every post đ
minimalist phone: creating folders
@sentry_co LOL, that's silly :D
Grimo
MKBHD for sure.
Ask him to review all those top-ranking products.
minimalist phone: creating folders
@stainlu what would you ask him?
Grimo
"the worst product I've tried"
minimalist phone: creating folders
@stainlu I would be curious about the answer :D But it could totally damage the brand of the product :D
Graphify
We also have @naval here, with quite some points âđŒ
minimalist phone: creating folders
@naval @hussein_r I forgot on him sorry :D
Mark Cuban!
minimalist phone: creating folders
@ajinsunny TBH, he is more active on Bluesky.
@busmark_w_nika I see, I don't have bluesky. I should make an account I guess.
minimalist phone: creating folders
At least, you can try the platform :)
@busmark_w_nika I just made an account. What's your handle? I can connect there as well.
I am ajinsunny.bsky.social
You should also look at Asians, for at least once :-)
A few to mention
Ashwin Mittal
Mahesh Kumar
Pankaj Rai
Prashanth Kaddi
Rajan Sethuraman
Sayandeb Banerjee

Thank you! :) I have never heard about them. Can you link their names to their Wikipedia or accounts? Because e.g. under "Mahesh Kumar" I have found 3 different people with such a good following :D And I am not sure which one is that one you referred to :D
minimalist phone: creating folders
Which are interesting to you? :)
WOV
I have seen @elon_musk12
Speaking of famous personalities, it also gives me the thought... how to know whether it's real or spam / fake account in PH?
minimalist phone: creating folders
@elon_musk12 @indu_thangamuthu This will be fake. If he was real, he would have more followers.
Shadow
Where is the option for Sam Altman?!?
minimalist phone: creating folders
@ashley_from_shadow He is already on this platform! :D
