not even trying to hide the AI slop anymore




Everyone makes running a SaaS as it's something extremely glorified and always fun. To be really honest, it's not. Nobody tells you that you spend a good chunk of your time doing ultra boring but necessary tasks such as: – manually changing a user's email address – or sending them invoice details for the third time because they didn't read your messages on how to do it themselves – explaining users how the price came to be that they have been paying for years (it's usually because of taxes) – fixing tiny but time-expensive bugs – bookkeeping, keeping record of individual deals, answering the same question over and over to the same customer... The list goes on. Don't get me wrong, I love what I'm doing but I also sometimes... hate it. Running a successful business truly adheres to Yin Yang. Can't have one without the other! You better learn how to embrace both sides, otherwise it will be a rough ride.




I wrote a more detailed blog post about my vision for a modern alternative to distributing apps outside the Mac App Store. Feedback & advice welcome. lucas.love/blog/vision-ma…
