Launching in Safari Extensions on Product Hunt

The benchmark for Safari Extensions

Safari Extensions is a crowded Product Hunt category, with around 58 launches a month and interest that is currently steady. The average launch here earns about 39 upvotes, and the median is 26 — the gap between the two tells you a few big launches pull the average up, so the median is the more honest target for a first launch.

A standout in Safari Extensions was Snap for Safari with about 438 upvotes. Treat that as the ceiling, not the expectation.
