Has Product Hunt changed? How is the featured section determined?

Question

I launched my product today. In the past, the products in the featured section used to change constantly, and we would appear as well. What has changed? Are they doing this manually?

I asked the same question a few days ago because I was very surprised about how my launch went Someone shared this link with me : https://help.producthunt.com/en/... It's really informative, disappointing, but informative

@konrad_sx Thank you for sharing... It is really bad and they don't have any solid alternative

@melmouk My product fills all checks but still not featured. So I think they featured only what they want

There's been a lot of complaints and discussions about this recently, see e.g. https://www.producthunt.com/disc...

@hadzhaoglu Yes, as long as it’s a manual process, I think they favor product that they like the most among those who fills the criteria

That’s a shame, a rotation while upvote are not available or something like this would be better imo
