The last time I genuinely discovered a product on PH was 2018 (Coda). I subscribed for a while, but didn't see much since then. I think this is the common experience. Since then, lots of top stuff have been waitlist because people are using product hunt launches to validate demand now.

PH is basically a social media for selling stuff. It's a community for selling stuff. It's for the people who want to say, "hey vote for me on product hunt, I need your support!" It's something like LinkedIn. More effective than using X or getting on a podcast. There's probably better ways to market, but it works for people who aren't good at marketing.

I think the Golden Kitty awards has some value, though. Could probably end up like the GRAMMYs for product or something.
