Which time zone do you choose for your launch, and why?

Question

I read some articles suggesting that the specific time zone of your launch can affect your daily exposure and the number of upvotes you receive. So, I'm curious—Do you choose an optimal launch time, or do you just launch based on the time zone you live in?

@amandanicoleharris That's very smart!!!

I try to strategically time my launches for around 9-10am PST since that's when a lot of the Silicon Valley and West Coast tech crowd is getting into the office and checking Product Hunt. I've found launching then maximizes visibility and upvotes from that influential user base. Curious what others have found works best though!
