How is Zscaler an underdog of the day? This doesn't seem fair from the start. https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/ZS/key-statistics/

Because of underdog feature is new, it is just a placeholder. Tomorrow, in 12.01am the first underdog will be appeared

Oh, I'm surprised you didn't find a startup to list instead :)

Nice, but the thing that holds a sensible person back from joining is point 10 in the ToS “10. Changes to the Terms

Thanks for feedback, I will think about it

> No favoritism: Every product gets an equal chance, and we don’t play favorites. > Daily Underdog Feature: Each day, we highlight one underdog product to give them extra visibility and support. Aren’t these contradictory statements?

Nope :) The underdog project is selected from projects with fewer than a certain number of upvotes. The system filters them and randomly picks one each day.

I spent 15 minute filling in the product submit form and when I hit submit it said "please refresh the page" and of course when I did so everything I had entered was gone. Also, my product does not take 150 characters to describe.

Sorry about that :( I don't know the cause but I will check it! The 150-character limit is in place to help users searching for products on the site understand them better.

That's very standard in ToS, and I would think a no-brainer. How could one use a site without accepting its terms of service? Notably Hacker News has almost that exact same language with a 14-day notice period. YouTube, Twitter, Wordpress.com, etc. all have similar language. What is your problem with it?
