dont think of a product "launch" as a one time thing. you'll need to launch every new feature you release. you must iterate on your launches. create a process, execute, learn, update, and then do it again. #buildinpublic #indiehacker

please roast my idea: i want to build a non-profit video game market where independent creators auction steam keys for as little as $0.01 USD. all revenue will go to charity. #indiedevs can donate a few steam game keys at a time and players get awesome deals. what do you think?

@LaireLaFlare SEO is a lot like building credit. It takes a lot of time and it's easier the more money you have. As you get more user's the SEO will take care of itself, they'll search up your website more, they'll post and share backlinks for you.

@rmnjng its a great place to start! i build all my side projects in nextjs. my advice would be to use vercel to deploy as it really simplifies things, dont worry about vendor lock until you make something big.

@BijouConcierge i was inspired by the layoffs. seeing people write tons of code and then getting laid off sucked because it meant they were still producing value for the company even if they werent there anymore. i wish devs were paid royalties.

1. Lower your instance compute size. Compute time is calculated based on the active time of your database, multiplied by the number of CPUs available. Set your compute size to be as small as possible, or use elastic settings and autoscale to meet demands.

@mrouabehi this is called bias, only paying customers have a real incentive to see your product succeed. my last startup had a lot of people telling me it was a great idea but nobody opened their wallets so i shut it down.

@Arihantdotcom i don't think its a good idea. the people that aren't getting work probably won't bring you work to your platform. platforms are notoriously difficult because you need buyers and sellers. no sellers means buyers cant find product. no buyers mean sellers waste their time.

@mjsarkarr the rookie mistake is writing code without fully understanding the requirements. what takes longer? UI/UX or Coding? i'll tell you, it takes a lot longer to refactor code than to adjust a figma design doc.
