The best product teams build everything in public. FeatDrop is a public changelog community for product builders to share every updates they ship, get feedbacks, and grow audience.
The idea came from a problem I kept running into myself: I ship updates to my side projects on a daily basis, but there’s no real place to share those updates unless you already have many followers.
Posting on X didn’t do much for me (I have only ~200 followers). Posting on changelog page meant basically nobody saw it. Posting frequently on Reddit felt spammy pretty quickly.
So I made a public product changelog.
Featdrop is kind of like Product Hunt, but instead of launches, people post product updates. You can have multiple products, post multiple updates every day, and people can see, follow, vote on, and comment on what you’re building.
One feature I personally especially like is the update calendar — it shows a monthly history of everything you shipped. It feels like a nicer way to show product momentum than just a GitHub graph. (The idea was inspired by an infographic made by ProductCompass)
If you’re actively building, I’d love for you to check it out and happy to hear any feedback!
What does discoverability actually look like for someone with zero followers on day one? If the feed is chronological and you have no audience yet, you're basically posting into a void. Congrats on the launch!
Nice! I've been building a product solo and my changelog is basically scattered across commit messages and a markdown file nobody sees. Do you see this working well for solo founders or is it more geared toward teams with a bigger audience already?
This could become a daily habit product if done right . Builders checking in sharing progress getting feedback that loop is strong. The challenge will be making early posts feel rewarding enough.
Thanks for a useful site, I was looking for something like it tbh for my project and now it landed in my lap :D ! Just a note from usability side. When I click on an update and then navigate back to main page, it is kind of annoying that it scrolls me back to top.
Love how it was built because of your personal need. But, don't we have many platforms like this already?
how are you planning to grow this, make it more intuitive?
