I’m not a fan of these generic 'let's connect' posts, but here I am playing the algorithm game. 😅 I'm a developer building in the Web3/SaaS space and I'm looking to connect with actual builders: People who prioritize product over fluff Anyone tackling SaaS, Web tools, or Automation Those who are tired of the noise and just want to ship DMs are open. If you’re actually building something, let's connect and grow together. 🛠️ #BuildInPublic #SaaS #Web3 #IndieHackers #DevCommunity

@adamc0dez Hey Adam, I'm building ombutocode.com an open source AI dev tool that guides a dev through requirements, architecture and specifications and automates the build process, all visualised in a kanban board

Le Claude du SEO est disponible. Il se connecte à ta Search Console et te dit exactement quoi corriger, créer et prioriser chaque jour. La plupart des gens font encore leur SEO en jonglant avec 5 dashboards et en devinant quoi faire ensuite. Maintenant il existe une IA qui lit tes vraies données et te donne le plan d'action. Seul souci : Les outils SEO traditionnels balancent de la donnée brute et te laissent te débrouiller. Voilà ce qui se passe généralement : → Ils paient 100€+/mois Semrush ou Ahrefs et en utilisent 5% → Ils fixent des exports GSC en cherchant ce qui compte vraiment → Ils demandent à ChatGPT, qui ne connaît rien à leur vrai site → Un audit manuel complet bouffe 5 à 20 heures → Résultat : des heures perdues dans les dashboards, toujours pas d'action claire Ce n'est PAS comme ça que le SEO devrait marcher en 2026. C'est la différence entre un tableur et un consultant qui connaît vraiment ton site. Tu connectes ta Search Console en 30 secondes, tu demandes ce que tu veux, tu obtiens un plan priorisé basé sur TES données. Ce qu'il fait pour toi : → Audit SEO complet, classé par impact, pas un rapport de 100 pages → Recherche de mots-clés calibrée sur ton autorité réelle (y compris les mots-clés GEO pour ChatGPT et Perplexity) → Lit ta GSC et fait remonter les wins en striking distance cachés dans tes données → Analyse concurrentielle et les content gaps que tu peux gagner → Plans de maillage interne, fixes on-page, et données structurées valides → Écrit des articles complets faits pour ranker, pas du blabla IA → Suit tes performances et signale de nouvelles opportunités chaque jour Déjà adopté par 6 000+ SEOs et fondateurs. 4,9/5 sur 200+ avis. 10+ heures économisées chaque semaine. Un solo founder est passé de 7 500 à 22 000 clics organiques par mois en 4 mois. Ce que c'est : un employé SEO IA qui transforme ta Search Console en plan d'action quotidien. Ce que c'est PAS : un énième dashboard dans lequel tu te connectes sans jamais passer à l'action. ----- Tu veux le tester gratuitement ? 1. Follow moi 2. Commente "LIVE" en-dessous 3. Reposte ça

@sandislonjsak Valid observation. The truth is 'vibe coding' gets you to 90% done really fast. Going from there to ready for distribution takes ages and a lot of skill. The alternative is to plan more intensively at the start of building, i.e. Software Engineering

Anyone who thinks Claude or something similar can already replace a developer(I didn’t say replace coding, I said replacing a developer) has clearly never used it on a serious, large scale project. There's marketing hype and then there's the truth. It looks revolutionary if you don't code yourself. 

All of these “influencers” using these tools have never hit the market with a working app. They all just yap how they were marketers and now their Claude codes while their sleep. With that velocity they should be hitting the market with new app every week, yet we don’t see it at all. If we pretend experienced developers are now obsolete based on viral videos, we're heading straight into an era of widespread, low quality code.

And I can’t wait to charge a premium for fixing someone’s disaster.

@svpino Unless working on a massive codebase the merge issues would be horrendous, even with worktrees. Key is prep up tickets that honours dependenies an have them execute autonomously

I don’t believe people who say they are running “12 parallel coding agents”. Either they are lying for clicks, or I’m a complete retard who can barely keep up with a single Claude instance.

@i_am_frentic @KaiXCreator Yes, very true. I also find that with an AI coding agent ready to go, it is much more intensive trying to keep the agent busy

@KaiXCreator It's not enough to replace software engineers, even if they do 100%. Because swe's do only 20-30% of their time actually writing code. Thats 30% of someones job. What will happen is reduce the amount of devs needed.

@vivoplt Two years, its writing better code today 😃 Engineers are still going to be extremely needed as coding has always been the easiest part of Software Engineering right?

@hunvreus AI coding needs to be combined with traditional Software Engineering principles, Waterfall model even more relevant today than ever. I built a tool where AI guides you through planning and then executes autonomously. What comes out is not perfect, but an order of magnitude faster

Talking to smarter folks than me, I'm convinced many of the AI folks in my timeline are full of shit. Nobody is "running 20 agents over night" and building stuff for actual users. Maybe some are building internal tools or disposable software. Maybe. But building software people like using? That doesn't get hacked on day one or blow up after the 3rd user? Nope. I don't even understand what that's supposed to look like. Do you work out a 57 pages document that perfectly describes what you want to build and then summon 14 agents and have them run wild for 6 hours? And what comes out on the other end isn't a broken pile of shit? Nope. Not buying it. PS: it may also be that I have an IQ of 82 and can't figure it out.
