DevHunt
Open-source launch board. Voting requires GitHub, which kills fake rings. If you do not build for developers, skip it.
DevHunt exists because developers got tired of tourist traffic on general boards. Listings are for APIs, SDKs, infra, and open source. GitHub login is required to vote, which is both a spam filter and a culture gate.

A tech-stack graph, not a hunt. Getting onto real company stacks is the prize. Creating a tool page is the easy part.
StackShare is a map of what companies run in production. A public tool page plus a handful of real companies listing you is stronger GEO than another launch-board badge. Fake stacks get you nothing and can get you removed.
