Need advice! I’m currently up for 2 roles in my career niche. I got an offer yesterday for one of them (tech in a major well-known & beloved corp). I *really* think another is coming this week/next for the other role that I completed final rounds for (blockchain tech). I’d prefer the latter because it’s fully remote & fits my background better but only have until Friday to respond to offer 1. Should I let company 2 know I’ve been offered a role at company 1? How do I approach the recruiter?

If you really want to hear from company 2 you might as well contact them and see if there's any update. Talk to the recruiter and say they would be your preferred choice, but you have another offer and you need to give them an answer. It's probably a bad idea to try to get company 1 to extend the deadline, that could make you look unprofessional and they'll rescind the offer.

I would definitely reach out to company 2 and follow up if nothing else. I don't know that I would tell them you have another offer though. I have seen that backfire.

I feel strongly that the OS App Store and Product Hunt could learn a lot from each other.
OS Store: Dictator-like in the extent that they control what people see outside the ranked lists.
- Pace of new to market apps is now way faster than turnover in "Most Downloaded" ($100b+ AR company, man..)
PH: Free market w/ OK search/community features. Feels the right amount of gritty. BUT with an overhauled design, PH has a chance to scare APPL + show the world a truly great store/market for apps.
