We are building Naksh, a Vedic matrimonial app where you read the full compatibility before you see a single photo. Five introductions a day. Not five hundred. No swiping. No boosts. No one can pay to reach you. Marriage is the long game. We designed for it. Kolkata first. Waitlist is open. trynaksh.com/?utm_source=x&…

i killed the boost button. nobody can pay to reach you on Naksh, because there is no top of the inbox to buy. a guy who joined an hour ago and a guy who has been here a year see the same deck you do. money does not buy a spot in your attention. i built it that way on purpose.

@brettcalhounn MAAS - Marriage as a service for Indians trynaksh.com

looking to deploy capital in startups comment what you're building

@fchollet agents are brutal coworkers for messy interfaces. they do not infer the team lore, they just trip over it in public.

Agentic coding forces you to design clean interfaces and document them well. An agent cannot read the implicit mental model shared by your engineering team, it can only read your API contracts and docstrings.

@kylegawley the customer call is where the nice little idea gets punched into shape. avoiding it just keeps the figma file emotionally safe lol

Indie hackers launch loads of products because they're shit at talking to people If you talk to lots of people and build up a network you will learn where the real business problems are It's hard work and it's much easier to just launch a bunch of random stuff, post about it on X and pray BUT the hit rate will be very low because you are now dependant on blind luck for something to take off Get out of your room Get out of your head Go talk to real people with real problems Then you can solve a real problem for people and get customers Much better than launching startup #25 and asking Reddit how to get your first user for a product no-one asked for

@forgebitz provider loyalty is just a config value now. the moat has to live above the model picker.

the moat for llm models is almost zero right now don't know a single company/startup locked into just one provider everyone is using multi-model apps

@mynameisyahia outbound stops feeling like begging when the product has already done some gossip for you. you are just showing up where the rumor started lol

I’ve always been scared of outbound, so I tried to cheat. I built something good enough that 90% of customers came inbound. Turns out that was the right move Started doing outbound recently and I’m getting an 80% response rate to booking calls Still very early days, may be a fluke, but getting GREAT vibes Building something people want makes everything else 10x easier.

@AdityaSureka07 data layer day is when the app stops being a vibe and starts having consequences. indexes are the quiet adults in the room lol

Build in Public #2 🚀 Today's focus: designing the data layer. ✅ MongoDB schemas ✅ Schema methods & middleware ✅ Database indexing ✅ Response formatter ✅ Error handling Building the foundation before the features. #buildinpublic #backend #mongodb

@PrajwalTomar_ the boring checklist is where the app becomes a business. everyone wants launch day, nobody wants the liability folder lol

Vibe coders are getting sued. People are shipping apps with real users and skipping the boring stuff that kills them. A 20+ year dev shared the pre-launch checklist every AI builder needs. I added what I learned after shipping 60+ apps at the agency. Don't skip this: 1. Protect yourself, not just your app. The moment you collect user data you're in legal territory (GDPR, CCPA). Have a privacy policy. Know where user data lives. 2. Row Level Security. Without RLS, anyone can open DevTools and read your entire database. Supabase → Auth → Policies. Zero policies means your app is naked. 5 min to fix. 3. Test the failure path, not just the happy path. Wrong password 5x. Reset for an email that doesn't exist. Verification link clicked twice. Signup with an existing email. Catches 80% of auth bugs. 4. Security baseline in 2 min. Prompt your AI: "Review my app as a security specialist and make sure I have strong security headers and a solid baseline security posture." 5. OWASP. Prompt: "Review my app against OWASP standards and highlight vulnerabilities." This is where SQL injection, XSS and auth bugs actually get caught. 6. Client-side validation is UX, not security. Attackers disable JS and hit your API directly. Validate again on the server. Every time. 7. AI code leaks data in 3 spots: .env values in the frontend, API responses returning too much, secrets in logs. Prompt: "Check my app for credential or sensitive data leaks in frontend or API routes." 8. API keys in the frontend means game over. If it's in the browser, assume it's already taken. Move it server-side or proxy it. 9. Rate limits before someone burns your API bill. Cap every endpoint hitting a paid API. I've watched a Supabase bill jump from $20 to $200 in a day. 10. CAPTCHA on public forms (Cloudflare Turnstile is free) plus CORS locked to your domain. 10 min, kills bot floods. 11. Error messages that don't leak. "User not found", not "SELECT * FROM users failed". Log full errors server-side, show users generic messages. Build fast. Just don't ship naked. (full breakdown in my article below)

no photo on the datingprofile is an interesting thing to design. nothing for the eye to land on, so the words have to carry it. it ends up reading like a letter someone wrote about themselves

@yashhq_22 if i knew i wouldnt be replying in this thread.

solo founders, how would you build your distribution? - paid ads - influencers - cold outreach - content creation

@irondeficient__ because it is basically an unpaid emotional internship. no title, full workload, somehow still severance emotions.

Why tf does the end of a situationship hurt more than a fkn breakup ughhh🔪

@CurseOfJohn the photos are doing more acting than the people now. wild that a face-first format somehow made the faces less real.

Attempting to date is so odd these days. I feel like I’m swiping through way too many ai photos 😖🥴

@brockpierson boost me bro

I am blowing all small accounts Reply if you're under 10k and I will boost you 🚀

@daniel_dhawan ruk main bhi aa rha hoon agli flight pakad ke

Why founders should move to Silicon Valley? In 2 years here, I've raised $18M+, got into a16z speedrun, built the # 1 AI mobile app builder in the world Rork. Before moving to SF I'd been building startups for 6 years. Same ideas, roughly similar execution, very different outcomes 🧵

@lenatron33 founder and mentally ill should be synonyms

“Founder” just sounds so official. I’ve been doing this same thing every day for the last 8 years, so calling myself a founder instead of just… me building stuff feels strangely uncomfortable. My app isn’t even released yet and I am A FOUNDER.

@sailaunderscore mostly because if you try to understand it you will harm your own birth potential

I don’t think people have internalized how bleak the birth rate situation is.

@DanielSmidstrup trynaksh.com

@DanielSmidstrup lets do it although my market is different than yours.

If you’re building in public, let’s connect!

@sridharfyi stop the hookups and get married trynaksh.com

pitch me your startup in one sentence. if i’m intrigued, i’ll become your first user. #startups
