I’ve built the best Product Hunt alternative over the past few years.

It’s called uneed.best.

Tenki Review - Lightning Fast GitHub Actions Runners at 90% Lower Cost in 2025

We've tested Tenki, the fast and cost-effective GitHub Actions runner alternative that promises 30% faster builds and 90% cost savings for DevOps teams

Last week, I reviewed Tenki Cloud, a Github Actions alternative, but:

Cheaper, Faster, and you can migrate in few secs by just updating 1 line in your code

I don’t see the point of using GitHub-hosted runners anymore 🤯

Here's the full announcement: www.uneed.best/blog/we-are...

We are closing the waiting line

We are temporarily closing our free waiting line to maintain quality and ensure every product gets the visibility it deserves.

✨ Big announcement: we closed the waiting line

What does it mean?

👉🏻 For the next 2-3 months, Uneed will no longer be free. To publish your product, you'll have to skip the line

Why?

The line was way too long, and the products quality was declining

More info 👇🏻

I work very little.

When I read some posts here, I realize that if I had the work capacity of some of you, I could probably x10 Uneed in a year 😂

But would I be where I am today? Not sure: I've been able to sustain this for 6 years because I don't work a lot.

A friendly message to all my launch platforms competitors:

It's too late, I won 😎

NB: not you PH (yet)

I found a GOLDEN niche B2B idea I know how to market and sell (I'll need a french salesperson though)

I usually only found classic low price vitamin B2C products ideas

I feel like a rockstar right now, roast me pls

I'm adding feature on Uneed maybe 5x faster now than I was 2y ago, and I almost don't write code anymore

I barely even right a single line of code or read any docs these days

In the near future, we'll market "No AI" SaaS and products as a unique advantage 🖖🏻

I love my job

I earn money while having a drink with my friends or while cycling near the river

Next step: completely stop working during week-ends

I'm adding this section at the end of every new product review on Uneed

The goal is to inform/remind readers that they also get a private review in addition to the blog post

What's a normal week in your life? For me:

- 💻 ~35h of work
- 🚴🏻 10-12h cycling
- 🐶 ~4h of walks with my dog
- 🍻 1-2 drinks/meals/thing with friends
- 🧑🏻‍🍳 Cooking and eating with my gf everyday
- 😂 ~86 bad jokes

Also a lot of gardening, cooking, reading
