[ChangeLog] June 1, 2023 release notes

Small, but mighty - we see you 👀

50% of the launches on Product Hunt are by independent and bootstrapping makers, many of whom go on to achieve great things. To better amplify the impact of these wildly talented humans, we’ve launched two new homepage filters for solo makers and bootstrapped projects. Try them out!

This new design is just ‘for you’

Our mobile app has a new look, supporting a personalized 'for you' feed to give you updates on people you follow and recommendations for products based on your interests. The new layout is much more interactive and helps you stay in the know with what's trending. Here are a few steps you can take to personalize your new feed: - Download the app - Go to the discover🔎 tab - Follow 5+ people - Update your interests

One size does not fit all

Based on feedback, we made some changes to our advertising options to support:

• Running ads without launching: Previously, you had to have launched on Product Hunt to run an ad. Ads are now open to everyone, allowing you to focus on reaching your target audience at the most opportune time for your product, regardless of your desire to launch on Product Hunt.
• Different campaign types: To enable more options to support your business goals, we created campaign types. Now you can optimize your Product Hunt ads for exposure, clicks, or a balance of both.
• Custom campaign duration: The ball’s in your court now. Select the duration of your campaigns, providing you with greater flexibility in planning and optimizing your ad strategy.

The Flash vs. our homepage

Because you’re all busy people, we know your time matters. Optimizations made to our homepage make it hard to even blink before the details load when you expand a launch. I dare you to try it.
