Over the past few weeks, I’ve been developing Simple Lister, a platform built to support indie product creators and give them a fair shot. If you’ve launched on Product Hunt recently, you might have noticed that only featured products get the spotlight, while others struggle for visibility.

Why Simple Lister?

Simple Lister aims to fix this by offering a more transparent and fair approach for product launches. Here’s how we do it:

• No favoritism: Every product gets an equal chance, and we don’t play favorites.

• Daily Underdog Feature: Each day, we highlight one underdog product to give them extra visibility and support.

• No hidden fees: There are no surprise costs. We have a simple submission fee, and that’s it—no pay-to-play or hidden charges.

Also we have a long to do list to do better.

Why does this matter?

After launching on Product Hunt ourselves, we realized how tough it is for smaller creators to get any attention unless they’re featured. Simple Lister is here to champion those indie products that deserve to be seen by a wider audience.

The platform is new and evolving, and I’m constantly working to make it better. If you’ve got feedback or questions, don’t hesitate to reach out!

Thanks for your support, and I’d be happy if you submit your products!

Some minor feedback regarding UI/UX. When I go to your landing page (https://simplelister.com) I cannot open any of the "Today's Products" in a new tab (tested on Firefox and Chrome). So when I hover over a product and the background of that HTML element changes to a light gray, I cannot right-click "Open in new tab" or use the middle mouse button to open that link. I cannot quickly open multiple products.

Yes! It was a bug, not on purpose. It will be fixed today, thank you for your kind feedback
