Recently, I launched Fifty - Indie Hacker projects described in 50 characters or less.
Projects on Fifty are ranked by Project Scores (projects description quality/clarity + community upvotes). With this combination, some projects excelled, and others lagged behind.
I want to give every project an equal opportunity since honestly, they are all great. So I am making two changes.
1️⃣, every week, at the start of the week, all upvotes will be cleared. This will level the playing field, giving projects, and founders, a new opportunity every week to get exposure. 2️⃣, project scores are only determined by community upvotes.
Think Product Hunt, but you get to launch every week.
With this, I will also be rolling out project badges (see above) to embed on your site - to show others your progress that week 🥇
The first round starts this Monday.
Best of luck to the 200+ projects already listed 🧡
