Name's r1 , Currently engaged in : ..) CS undergrad ..) day job (creative strategy) ..) SWE freelancing ..) building and maintaining my own tools will be giving updates on my tools here, hoping to achieve $1k MRR for now! ;))

i love taking nap breaks ; i think they are the best type of breaks you can take during work

@carlmonkft i love getting them when i wake up

bro 🫩 disable those revenuecat notifications Ur dopamine receptors are fried by constantly looking at ur phone for RC notifications when u wake up, eat, shower, work and before bed I disabled everything bc i actually felt like a dog getting pavlov'd

@ImLunaHey call it ritu (seasons)

i need a name for the browser im working on, anyone got any ideas?

Honestly, this image is wayyy more helpful than doing anything else to my tools right now. it tells me the exact 3 areas i need to work on: 1. make it a 100% functional without any bugs for all users 2. make it more affordable for some 3. compeititor research

just created a retention offer for anyone who uninstalls my tool and picks the "it's too expensive option" tried to use all "patterns" i knew about retention. What else can i improve?

thinking of putting my actual face and name here on x, but idk that gives me linkedin vibes tbh

one of my friends sent me a pic of two ZX500RR outside his gym. I asked him which richass area he lives in. He told me that the gym has 5 owners, and each one of them has a ZX500RR and they just swap around. 💀 Nepal is way richer than i have in my head lol

@tridevgurung 🫡 still a lot to improve

@tech_aarohan great work, sir!

well if my products continues this trend; i'll hit my desired 300$ MRR within the next 15 days. crazy how i posted just a few hours ago about going down on mrr , and some new folks already joined in 100$ MRR achieved ✅

@manoj_surya_ @marclou @trust_mrr all my existing customers are on freemius so it'll be a bit of hassle maybe; i'll think about using dodo payments maybe for another saas

@tech_aarohan @marclou @trust_mrr for me also stripe doesnt work, used dodopayments for that reason. not sure if its available for you.

✅ Startup Acquisition #102 on @trust_mrr ✅ $0/mo AI chatbot SaaS sold for $1,000. Congrats @manoj_surya_ 👏

@manoj_surya_ @marclou @trust_mrr hey @marclou ig a super niche ask, but is there anyway to add freemius to supported providers for trust mrr?

@tech_aarohan @marclou @trust_mrr list in general so you get a free backlink with high DR. $29 is for putting for sale only.

@manoj_surya_ @marclou @trust_mrr 30$ listing fee is not worth it for me right now. maybe a bit later. one is at 100$ MRR right now, another is roughly 100$ revenue; might list after growing a bit

@tech_aarohan @marclou @trust_mrr That's my saas, may be i got lucky or built with value that i can make sense. Trust your gut and list one in @trust_mrr

@dmytrovirych damn that hits hard; especially in this AI age. i have almost completely transitioned to agentic coding, sometimes i wonder how far i have transgressed and if i can actually called myself a software engineer anymore

I’ve been shipping code for 10+ years and imposter syndrome still won’t leave me alone. You’d think it chills out with time. Nah. It just levels up. Early days it whispers “you’re not ready yet.” A decade in it hits harder: “bro you’ve been faking it this whole time, they’re about to catch on.” Mobile apps, web stuff, janky systems with too many moving parts, solo products I actually shipped… none of it matters when the voice kicks in. Thinking about speaking at a conference? Lol who do you think you are, those are the real pros. Want to drop an opinion in a thread? Better stay quiet before someone realizes you don’t actually know shit. Here’s the thing I’ve learned: the voice isn’t tracking your real skill. It’s just screaming about the fake gap between what you know and what you think everyone else knows. That second number is 100% made up. Your messy behind-the-scenes vs their perfect highlight reel. All those “professionals” I’m scared of? Half of them are up at 2am staring at a random GitHub issue, quietly praying someone else already solved this exact bug. It never fully disappears. You just get better at shipping anyway while it’s still yapping. If you’ve got way more years than your confidence shows, reply with the number. Curious how many of us are still out here waiting to get “found out.” 🚀

😭 fell back to 90$ MRR from 110$, 2 people cancelled their sub. Damn this might just work out. For context, I started monetizing in June 5, so that's just like the first 15 days. Honestly I want to scale to 300$ MRR asap

@sergeynazarovx exactly why i share just revenue numbers

I can't prove it, but I think most builders have stopped posting publicly because they're afraid their products will be copied. Back when AI wasn't as capable, a lot more people shared updates about what they were building. Now, I see it less and less.

@mitchellh dont mean to be insensitive here, but what can @mitchellh not do atp, didn't know you had formal training to ride jets bro, that's crazy

I have a genuine question about the NetJets accident for pilots who follow me. First, I'm deeply sorry to those who lost someone in this accident. Second, I'm not passing any judgement on the pilots. I just have a genuine question here trying to learn more: Why did they do an emergency descent south of the field to line up for a typical straight-in versus doing a flameout descent and approach over the field? I watched the Blancolirio analysis and he brought it up too, but noted that its a "military maneuver" and that airline guys (and implied NJ) don't do this. Why/why not? (Again, I'm genuinely curious) In my Vision Jet training, I was taught (and retaught in recurrent) to do the flameout maneuver over the field in the case of an emergency descent even if you still have engine power, because it gives you a predictable and measured way to judge your descent and feel very confident you'll make the field. For the VJ, that is an alt divisible by 3000 over high key and 1500 over low key. So as long as you get into an altitude divisible by 3000 over high key, you SHOULD (pilot skill pending) always reach the field. Repeat loops as necessary. Full disclaimer: I'm a total amateur. I know many NetJets pilots and their operation and they're real pros. They're 1000x better and more experienced than me. Obviously. I just really want to know more about whether or not this is standard procedure generally, and why or why not.

@mil000 yeah, great move tbh

So at this point Cluely has nothing to do with being an AI overlay and is now just a marketing agency / content house

@simonecanciello looking at ads is always fun. people are wild creative

500k downloads last month. $0 revenue. how? an app that generates ai videos to send to people you know. they’re everywhere right now. 0 in app purchases. what am i missing?

@neorohit neither, it means you found a 4 leaf clover hehe

Found a four leaf clover today. Does this mean I'm lucky, or I just happen to have an eye for details?
