HACKER NEWS SENT 10X THE TRAFFIC — TO THE ONE DEVICE IT COULDN'T INSTALL ON

Summary from the TLDR Founders newsletter

Franz, a desktop app, got featured on both Hacker News and Product Hunt in the same week. Hacker News sent roughly ten times the traffic compared to Product Hunt. However, most of the traffic Hacker News sent was on mobile, while people were viewing the Product Hunt feature on laptops. Franz is a desktop app, and its site doesn't display a direct download link on mobile, so the traffic from Hacker News was less valuable.
