Does a great start on PH mean very much? The chances your target audience is there for most products seems very low. I would love to see this data compared to all products/startups in general, but of course that's probably difficult to do.

Bingo. IME Producthunt is lazy marketing for indie founders. Their main user base is other founders, wannabe founders and super tech literate power users who are itching to use “the next new beta thing”, who’ll be a tiny percentage of any userbase.

Granted there are cases where that market IS aligned with your product, eg if you built a low cost site-builder or low cost social media publishing platform
