Ask HN: How do you discover new products worth trying?

2•xualaya•1h ago
Product Hunt used to be great —early ProductHunt, when the community was smaller and the curation was real. Now it feels like a launch platform more than a discovery one. For Reddit the signal-to-noise ratio seems to be getting worse. Show HN is great but what else?

Curious if others have a routine for this? Where do you actually discover new products worth trying, maybe before they've already crossed 100k users?

I've been feeling the same way about discovery platforms. I actually built a small tool called SaaS-Saver (https://project-98ebe4c5.doanything.app) to solve a specific 'discovery' problem: finding the tools you're already paying for but not using. It's privacy-first and audits expense reports in 60s. Would love to hear if this kind of 'utility-first' discovery resonates with anyone here.
