Best advice is to launch at 12:01 PST (since that's when the product hunt list refreshes, and you'll be able to have your product stay for the full 24 hours) and to launch on the weekends since there's less competition.

Absolutely agree! It's important to launch at 12:01 PST as well as on the weekends to get the most visibility.

The best advice I've heard from multiple winners is don't neglect the basic PH guides and have 1,000 people willing to vote for you

Having a good plan, following the guides and many people to vote is definitely key. Good luck!
