I won a Product Hunt hackathon in ~2015 by making a Produck Hunt game (where you used your phone like the gun): https://www.producthunt.com/products/produck-hunt/launches/p...

All you have to do is look at the minuscule number views on any YouTube video links shared with a new product on PH.

I've seen products with upvotes in the hundreds, yet it has single digit views on the related product video.

One would think if there was real interest someone would click to watch a video?

OFC when you clearly kick out every successful developer keeping strictly narratived ones... Lately non one cares how powerful you are, you be with progress or be history.

Exactly. The PH docs make a big deal about having a video demo, too. Then they go ahead and hand-pick launches to feature that don't even meet that criterion. And for what?
