This is Not a Cry for Help, Just a Good Old Rant

Hello IH!

Last week, we launched Trameter on Product Hunt, and to say it was a rollercoaster would be an understatement. We were ready for a big day—we had our community on board, took screenshots at every step to track our progress, and everything looked promising.

But here’s the kicker—despite our best efforts, most of our votes got removed, and we ended up in 8th place instead of the top 3, which we should have easily made with the way we started.

What’s frustrating is that Product Hunt encourages you to share your launch, but when your community actually shows up, it feels like you’re penalized for it. It felt like we were pushing a boulder uphill, and no matter how hard we pushed, it kept rolling back.

Like I said, this isn’t a cry for help—just a good old rant. Also, I'm wondering if anyone else has been through this and if there are specific actions to take to avoid this in future launches.

However, despite all of this - we’re still going strong with Trameter. So, if you’re someone who hates planning vacations and wants a solution that does it in seconds, I’d love for you to check us out. Every bit of support helps.

Rant Over! Lol. But really, has anyone here experienced this with their PH Launch? Did you somehow recover? Looking forward to hearing your thoughts in the comments!
