Topic hubs cut across PainMap horizontally. Instead of "what do people in Germany complain about" or "everything in the Health category", a topic hub asks: "what do people complain about when they mention scams & fraud?" The match list is still building.
We build the match by scanning the title and description of every submission for any of these terms: "scam", "fraud", "phishing", "spam". That's intentionally loose — it catches both the obvious phrasings and the adjacent ones, since people don't all describe the same frustration with the same words. The trade-off is that occasionally an entry shows up here because of incidental wording. The ranking pushes those down: low-quality, low-vote, low-urgency entries naturally drift to the bottom.
Not many entries mention scams & fraud yet. If this is a frustration in your own life, you'd be one of the first to log it — and the page will get more useful as it fills.
For founders and product people: the "willingness to pay" column on each pain card matters more than upvotes. Upvotes mean "this annoys me too". Willingness to pay means "I would actually open my wallet for a fix". The two are correlated but not the same — some of the highest-upvoted pains have very low willingness to pay (people enjoy complaining about them more than they want them solved) and some of the highest-paying pains have modest upvote counts because they only hurt a niche.
For everyone else: this is just a window into what people are quietly fed up with. No takes, no opinions, no listicle. Just the list.
Nobody's complained about scams & fraud yet. Go first.
