A B2B Product on Product Hunt? Why not?

Well first let me say this. Here is a post I prepared last night:

Hello Indie Hackers!

I am part of gjirafatech, a SaaS startup in the B2B sector. We are excited to announce the launch of VP Player on Product Hunt🚀. VP Player is a new video player designed specifically for digital publishers and media houses. We would love for you to check out VP Player on Product Hunt and give us your feedback. We took lots of advice from Indie Hackers while planning the Launch. Let's see what works. I will report back to you all on how it went for us.

Feedback is highly appreciated!

But as the day moved on our motivations have been getting lower and lower.
Now some of the issues we encounter today during the launch. I am taking some time to inform you all about this. We put a lot of effort in reminding clients, friends, and prospect about our launch but due to the country we're operating from, some votes don't get counted. Since we're located in a small country with only a few IP Addresses the algorithm thinks it's bots giving us votes.
Allthough we have the most upvotes, we're not on top of the list. It's quite sad to see the team who worked for over 1.5 months on this being discouraged but we're still fighting and hoping to make Product of the Day.

Has anything like this happened to any of you guys?
