I'm going to have to call out Ben Tossel for vote brigading. Here's a link : https://twitter.com/bentossell/status/920574217841774592 https://twitter.com/bentossell/status/920574217841774592 This is not product hunt to say "Hey we launched on PH" which is code for "come upvote my post". I can only speculate on what goes in private, but you get the point. This practice of vote brigading is very very common for people who have any meaningful following or are close to "influencers". I know a shit ton of people who do either open vote brigading or do so privately. It's also very easy to avoid the voting ring detector since launches are rare. It's fucking disgusting to say the least. The only consolation for me is that such people will not succeed long term or at least very few will succeed. To the community : please keep your eyes open, a lot of content does not get to the front page organically, when you see such posts call them out. I hope the comments on this post make sense with this context.
