Should Product hunt add DM option too?

Question

Anil Yarimca · Accepted Answer

I believe it should be added! Adding a DM option could improve networking, but ensuring it's restricted to people you follow would maintain privacy and prevent spam.

Jake Tital · Answer

No I like not having the DMs unless it was maybe hooked with kitty coins as a payment gateway to get messages

@h_anil_yarimca Exactly Anil. You made the best point. It should be added but it should also make sure that privacy is not compromised

@ruben_boonz 100% Ruben. Only verified users can give and receive DMs

Oh no, then it will become the same as Linkedin and someone will create a tool to automate outreach and generate attention until people will stop engaging...

Answer

PH definitely does not need DM most people in the community have links to profiles on other platforms that have DM connect with them that way.

Answer

I'd like to see DMs, as long as there is a way to effectively filter the inevitable spam.
