The same thing that happened with viral advertisements or social media stars. Industry plants. I seriously cannot understand whether people truly care that much about yet another Notion -> X tool. They aren't that cool nor useful. Funny enough those tools go under with some shutting down story on IndieHackers a year later. From what I've read from various "Growth Hackers" here on HN, IH, and PH, it's that many people will pay for likes, pay for shoutouts on newsletters/videos/etc to get those likes, and all to get the "Best Seller" / "Most Popular" product status to make a quick buck in the short term and then left wondering why nobody uses the product a year later. I've become a bit jaded to these communities because you start to realize how "fake" they are such as how things will make the front page by being sponsored or promoted by admins. I'm glad HN doesn't do that to my knowledge thus far. You see your contributions actually go through the gauntlet.
