Budgeting apps shouldn't feel like a part-time job

Lums hit #11 organically on Product Hunt yesterday! A massive thank you to everyone who supported us by upvoting, commenting, and downloading the app.

The launch conversations highlighted one thing we ve felt since day one: most budgeting apps ask for way too much effort before giving you any value.

Usually, you download an app and spend the next hour fixing categories, adjusting settings, and correcting transactions. By the time you're "set up," you've already lost the motivation that made you download it in the first place.

@yulia_kuznetsova3 put it perfectly! She said she added her accounts to Lums and it just showed her where her money was going. No fixing things first. Just clarity.
@selina4 shared something similar. After months of bills piling up and small charges slipping by, having everything side-by-side finally made things click.

One Month Later: 380 Users, 4 Major Updates, and ExtraBar is Just Getting Started

One month ago, I launched ExtraBar on Product Hunt.

I had no idea what would happen.

380 users later, I'm genuinely overwhelmed.

Not just by the numbers, but by your feedback, and what you've built with it.

We Finished 5th on Product Hunt – And Here's What Happened Next

Three days ago, I hit "Publish" on Product Hunt for ExtraBar, a menu bar customization tool I'd been building for months.

I honestly didn't know what to expect.

What happened next caught me completely off guard.

Launched Ultracite on Product Hunt twice. Here's what I learned.

Ultracite is an opinionated, zero-config code linter and formatter. @haydenbleasel launched it on Product Hunt twice this year, and I had a humble contribution as a Hunter.

Different launches, different results. Here's what I learned.
