Has anyone else noticed their Kitty Points dropping on Product Hunt? 😵

Question

I’ve been pretty active, but recently, I’ve seen a decline, and I’m wondering if it’s due to deleted accounts, inactive users, or something else entirely. It’s not about the points, but it does make me curious about how the system works.

Have you experienced this? Do you have any tips/ideas on keeping them stable or insights into why this happens?

Let’s figure it out together! 🐾

Every four years, on the halving day, the amount of new Kitty-points created gets cut in half 😸

Paul Brooks · Answer

I've noticed a drop too and assumed it was tied to inactive users or deleted accounts. It would be great if Product Hunt clarified how these points are calculated.

yes, I'm leaving the bronze league now

Is Product Hunt again doing an update or something else I cannot figure out @rajiv_ayyangar any news?

Lucy Howard · Answer

Building more engagement might help balance the drop.

@ag94 oh did you find any specific reason?

Hamza Afzal Butt · Answer

@neha_8 somebody asked me about this that thier points are dropping so

Neha · Answer

Not noticed but why it so?

Daniel Zaitzow · Answer

I think they also drop based on your activity

Alexander Galitsky · Answer

@hamza_afzal_butt nope

Hassan Sajjad · Answer

Same here! I’ve been engaging more than ever, yet my Kitty points are down.

I wonder if it's linked to people who upvoted your contributions leaving the platform. If that's the case, it makes sense but still feels a bit discouraging.

Advin Jadis · Answer

I've had the same experience, but I see it as a nudge to connect with more active users.

Teofilo Rassin · Answer

Do they reflect only recent activity or overall engagement history?

Elijah Joseph · Answer

Sure, I've noticed that too. It's add because I've been participating at the same level as always.
