It really depends on your expectation of the Product Hunt launch.

If your aim is to secure the #1 rank and attract thousands of users to discover your product-market fit, Product Hunt might not be the best platform for you.

However, if you're looking to find beta users for your MVP, Product Hunt can still be effective, but don't rely on it exclusively—use it as one of several channels.

As a daily active user on Product Hunt, I have seen some products rapidly gaining traction by ranking high, but not all top-ranked products will survive or succeed.

In a word, don't overestimate or underestimate it.
