Something I'm genuinely curious about and not trying to downplay success here, but is Product Hunt really a metric of achievement now?

It all depends who you are trying to reach. My audience is obviously designers or people who are interested in this field, and ProductHunt is certainly a great place to reach this audiencw. And as you might have seen in the article, it was trending on other Design-related places as well, but I chose ProductHunt for the title simply because it's what most readers can relate to.
Anything you can cram after "#X on..." is metric enough for attention seeking marketing titles.
