How do you intend to balance the need for high quality with the desire of users to get involved in the community? Are you worried if someone can't post/comment for months after joining, they may lose interest?

Great question! Honestly, that's one of my least favorite parts of Product Hunt. I hate turning away people that want to contribute but to keep the contributions of high quality and not overwhelming, we need to curb our contributor growth.

We will be making product changes to grow the community, opening it to more people.

I can only vote on Product Hunt and can't comment on the site.

For me, I treat it as a daily digest of cool products rather than a discussion board. I haven't lost interest yet!
