Fellow hackers!
What storage provider do you use for your projects?
I've been using DO Spaces before, worked fine, but looking into Cloudflare R2 as heard a lot of reviews on that. Any issues you faced?

I've been trying to find where to pivot with FounderMate for over a week
It's a bit overwhelming
While everyone else comes up with ideas & delivers in a few days, I spend a ton of time researching, thinking, and talking
Hope it'll all pay off
Have a good night

Spent evening researching, looking into different competitors and speaking to possible customers. Tryna find out if I can add value
Takeaway: there are a lot of apps. In a narrow niche
Positive: a lot of money here๐ธ
Negative: competition๐ฅ
Good night everyone

Fellow founders, a few questions for you:
- How do you gather feedback for your product?
- How do you process it?
- Is there anything you don't like in this process?๐ค๐ค

OK, I'm genuinely interested in it.
All the things Danny mentioned are very new to me, and I'm willing to give them a shot.
Have any of you already tried SEO, Content-focused apps? How did it go?

After:
- 4 long nights
- Ton of different chatgpt/stackoverflow/github discussions
- A lot of tears
I finally managed to get scraper up and running on azure
Didn't think I could be that happy
Gonna deploy the website tomorrow.
Have a good night everyone๐๐๐

WOW๐คฏ๐คฏ๐คฏ
Never imagined I could get to that level of success๐ ๐
But if being serious, after I finish building & deploying, there's definitely a ton of work in terms of seo and marketing

This day was full of different not work-related tasks. Now I finally have some time to work at night.
Most important task: deploy new version and test it works correctly. Deployment might always end up in unexpected way๐ฅฒ๐ฅฒ๐ฅฒ

Inspired by many people
It's decent, but I always want more, much more.
Almost every night, I stay up late trying to pursue my goals and not burnout at the very same moment.
Incredibly hard to balance.
But I don't want to give up. And I won't.

2 weeks of hard work promoting foundermate -> +15 people in waitlist
1 day with a random repost from a "big guy" -> +16 people in waitlist
No takeaways here, pure luck๐ ๐
