September 9, 2026 2–3 daily users after launch: product problem or distribution problem?

I recently launched Bulk Unsubscriber for Gmail, a Chrome extension that adds bulk unsubscribe, block, and delete actions to Gmail’s subscriptions page.

It has been live for 2–3 weeks. I’ve done a little promotion on Product Hunt and Reddit, but it still only gets around 2–3 daily users.

Since this is naturally a low-frequency cleanup tool, I’m unsure whether DAU is the right metric.

Is the product too narrow, or do I simply need more targeted distribution? For those who have launched browser extensions, how did you find your first 100 users?

    The low DAU may be normal for this use case. Do users who install it actually complete a cleanup and return when they need it again, or are installs failing to become meaningful first-time use?

      Thanks Aryan, that makes sense. I checked, only 47 installs in the last 30 days, so not many people are finding it yet. But of the ones who try it, a good chunk do finish a cleanup. I’m guessing it’s more of a reach problem than a “nobody wants this” problem. Any ideas for where a beginner like me should promote a small Chrome extension?

Built it because Gmail makes you unsubscribe one sender at a time. I wanted a faster, privacy-first way to clean up inbox.
