1. Do funders come from Product Hunt? Yep, sometimes! If your launch blows up, some investors might DM you directly. But most of the time, youโ€™ll get users, not investors. So founders usually take that early traction (like 2K users or $1K revenue), make a simple pitch deck or Notion update, then cold email or DM angels/investors on X, LinkedIn, or platforms like OpenVC. Traction opens the door but you still gotta knock. 2. Is it really just Product Hunt + X? For now, yeah theyโ€™re still the strongest launchpads. But people also use: Indie Hackers (for feedback) Reddit (niche subs) Hacker News (if itโ€™s techy) LinkedIn (for B2B) Medial (for community vibes) Even TikTok/YouTube (if youโ€™re good on camera) But PH + X still hit the hardest if you know how to use them right.

X and LinkedIn are like jealous siblings. Saw a post from a creator on X (formerly Twitter). Last week, all his tweets were popping off. Engagement, traction, everything. This week? Nothing. The algorithm ghosted him. Why? Because his bio literall
