Clobbr

They say all @shadcn apps looks the same

yeah I am probably a terrible business person 😔 why? I rewrote the internals of clobbr.app because I got a combo of bad Setapp review + support email concerning the same issue. I couldn't leave it be. So I slept 6 hours in the past 3 days to fix this. I want to stand by what I built and support my apps for as long as I can. So why is this BAD for business? I'll tell you in a second. But first, it's time for Realtalk™ Many people in the community advocate for shipping things fast and fixing things as you go. But I think quite a lot stop at shipping fast and never do the other part. There is an insane amount of buggy indie software that never gets patches. I think long-term this will hurt you, either slowly or with a wrath when e.g. someone discovers a huge flaw in your apps. 👉 A polished can be a huge moat in a sea of buggy products IMO you ship fast and either: - kill the app; it failed. Refund everybody - commit to maintaining the app and your image as an indie dev (optionally, pivot and choose again) Medium to long term this will create a user base and you will be able to get sales on new products by leveraging your brand. 🤔 But I just said this is a terrible business decision? Well, the truth is I probably chose the wrong thing long ago. I should have pivoted or killed the app. It's in a niche of a niche and I have built it purely on a hunch. I stopped marketing efforts for Clobbr a while ago and sales have been going down. So choosing to work on this vs a new product that can bring a lot more revenue (or existing one that does it) is probably a STUPID IDEA. I don't care though, I want those 2 people that wrote to me to like the app. I hope it's not just my ego, but a principle that I will manage to stand by for decades. > Will I make less money? Sure. > Will I sleep better at night? Absolutely. And I do need sleep right about now 😂
