- Comments come back nested. A launch's replies sit under their parent in
comments[].replies, not flattened into one list — so walk the tree recursively rather than iterating a flat array. - Leaderboards drop promoted entries. Product Hunt places three promoted entries per twenty in a leaderboard feed. Those are removed from
entries, and the number removed is reported innotes— which is why a count can differ from the website. - Every response carries
notes. It is where a truncated walk, an upstream ceiling or a dropped placement is reported. Read it before treating a result as complete.
