Show HN: I built a fair alternative to Product Hunt
Between the bots, the enormous difficulty of reaching the home page and recent developments (did you know you can now buy 50 upvotes directly from Product Hunt?), it's high time alternatives emerged.
I've been working on mine for 5 years, and I've been working full-time on it since the beginning of the year: I can now make a living from it.
My project is called Uneed, and it fixes Product Hunt's biggest problem: the number of launches is limited daily. This means there's a queue (currently 3 months), which can be passed for $30. But it also allows us to have quality products, and give everyone a chance to get visibility.
We've already had 60,000 visitors since the start of the year, and we're growing little by little, thanks in particular to the support of the indie hacker community.
Let me know if you have any feedback. In any case, I'd be happy to help you showcasing your product by giving you a discount .
Thomas.

I received so many messages to ask me if I'd be happy to buy upvotes, so of course I don't, and most of the time, you can't reach the top 10.
It's very nice to see alternatives to PH, good job!
I'll do my best to keep Uneed fair, thank you so much for your encouragement Sorasful, it means a lot!
I can't wait to be able to offer my next SaaS project (currently under development) on your platform. This will be my first official launch as a newbie indie hacker!
I switched to Uneed for my projects and product discovery and it fils the gap Product Hunt created during the last months
Good luck on the next steps
