I have a feeling that ProductHunt is only read by people who post to ProductHunt in a sort of pyramidal echo chamber. Is it the case, or does ProductHunt reach further than product managers in small companies?

Ask HN: Is ProductHunt Worth It?

Lately I've seen many startups post "#1/2/3/ on Product Hunt". I know they also go into a good amount of effort to do this (e.g. write up a good post before, get all their friends to vote for them)Does anyone with experience know if getting on PH #1/2/3 actually translates into something meaningful? e.g. a huge increase in adoption/downloads/awareness etc.

Ask HN: Is electric toothbrush worth it?

To paraphrase Phil Greenspan's famous LISP quote: "Does any sufficiently complicated micro service architecture contain an ad hoc, informally specified, bug ridden, slow implementation of half of kubernetes?" Thought that might be an interesting way of saying is it worth bitting the bullet and spending the effort to understand and use kubernetes.

Ask HN: Kubernetes Worth It?

I'm a software engineer in NYC, and have always wanted to explore Europe. Visa issues aside, is London worth it? Is it comparably better or worse than NYC, in your opinion, for a single guy in his 20s?

Is recursion really worth it? My CS teacher told me to avoid recursion when possible.Apparently recursion takes up more memory space than nested for loops (I'm talking about 4-5 for loops) and I lose grades for the same.

Ask HN: Is Recursion Worth It?

With the Vanced app being taken offline and Vimeo charging some creators thousands of dollars, several people on HN asked: If you value Youtube and the free service is provides, why don't you pay for it?I've thought of subscribing to Youtube, but its family plan is at £18, which is more than Netflix/Disney+ combined (very roughly).Obviously, it's not that big an amount, but I wonder: Is it worth it?As for supporting creators: We can do that via Patreon (if they have one)-- does subscribing to YT help?If anyone has Youtube Premium, do you feel it is worth it?
