@madsmadsdk OMG how did you do that? 🤯 Mine was way higher. What product do you have?

@theappsgal I’m currently benefiting from free Apple Ads credits. You get $100 in credits when you sign up. According to stats my CPA is about $0.25 😁

I now pay ~$0.3 per new free user 💸 Before I paid $0.04. That’s because I’ve increased initial free credits from 1 to 3. Why? Because only 1 free credit doesn’t let new users play 💡 Let’s do the math. 100 users at $0.04 = $4 Only one needs to convert to be profitable. 100 users at $0.3 = $30 5 users need to convert to be profitable. This is obviously a risk, but if nobody converts at only 1 free credit? That’s going to be more expensive in the long run. I can’t sustain this indefinitely though. However, Snapstick is currently at 60 users - most of them never return. Hopefully this small change fixes that.

@alexcloudstar At the same time, some great products came from observing others’ pain too

Most indie hackers are building solutions to problems they've never actually had. I spent months building a todo app while my biggest problem was procrastination, not organization. Build for your own pain. Everything else is just guessing.

@yashhq_22 More builders, more noise too. Standing out may get harder

Most people think AI replaces jobs. What it’s really doing is creating more solo founders daily.

@BuildWithxAI Getting users. Building has never been more accessible

What’s harder in SaaS right now: Building the product or Getting users?

@vibeonX69 AI can write code but you still need to understand what it’s doing

Is learning programming languages still important when AI can generate code instantly?

@jose_goncalves_ Feels like many people ship to ship, not to stand behind what they build

We need less “ship fast” products and more “my reputation is on the line” products

@lukmanAufbau Way too early to judge anything

20 days building my first SaaS. • No viral moment • No acquisition offer • No investor calls • Just 20 days of showing up Questions though: Is 20 days enough or am I just getting started?

@StevenCravotta Such a good way to look at it, numbers feel different when you picture real people

If you have 20-50 users on your app, congrats. That's a classroom full of people using something you built. That's not nothing. That's everything.

@pmitu Congrats! That’s massive 🔥

Yesterday, I had my first viral post on 𝕏 — 1,8M impressions. Well, I feel fine.

@anitakirkovska Supply exploded, demand for new apps didn’t grow

anyone can build an app now. but almost no one wants another one

@FilipPanoski Thanks a lot! 😊

@theappsgal Love the UI

Tracking my water with one tap

@iuliatech Thank you! ☺️

@theappsgal Love the colors, and the UX.

Building an app today feels very different from 3 years ago. Back then: about 2,000 new apps launched every month. Today it’s almost 15,000. Have we even hit the peak yet?

@pmitu True. A 9 to 5 can actually be the best setup for many people

Some people are better cut for 9-5 and they need to accept it.

@ThoughtfulTechy When you find the right circle here, it feels really supportive.

I'm really enjoying the vibes on X. I feel like people want to help one another, learn and grow together.

@iuliatech I use Figma Community, Pinterest, sometimes Mobbin (but it’s paid) and other tools

Where do you get your inspiration for visual design for your apps? I use Dribbble and Pinterest. Any other useful sites I should know about? 👀

@DanKulkov Small number, big milestone!
