Thanks for the input! Can I ask you, how you monetized your keto app? Not even remotely in the same space but curious about different models for monetizing consumer tech.

Either VC funded or bootstrapped. What were the signs/metrics/signals that led you to the decision to shutdown?

I was just browsing and noticed an add for a Staff Engineer Position at Reddit focusing on crypto and this was in the job description: """ The Internet is the most important public…

Even though I feel very very fortunate to work in tech, I'm starting to feel more and more of this energy as I stare down the barrel of endless whiteboarding and leetcode style int…

Hey folks! I want to refurbish my old dusty blog into something new and fancy but without (too many) late nights fighting with yet another static site generator. I want to write mo…

This is a very long shot, but I am looking for a marketing or design focused co-founder who has experience building social platforms or social shopping apps to help launch a new "P…

I was a late bloomer in the latter (like very late due to being overweight for most of my teens and early 20s) and I don't have any big wisdom to share except don't lowet your stan…

I did a pros/cons analysis and figured out that it would be my best bet since I knew the language at a around a B2/C1 level and there was no other EU country that spoke English (my…

Not a UK citizen and Brexit has effectively made moving back much much harder than it was before when you had automatic right of residence based on being an EU citizen.

I did and I regret it deeply. I was working remotely even pre-covid times and I decided to leave London (where housing was becoming a nightmare) to move to Sweden. I have never bee…

I would recommend Ahrefs blogs. I was able to grow from close to 0 monthly visitors to close to 20k monthly in about a year just by fixing low hanging fruit. Still not much but als…

Hmmm weird - not sure how that happened but also can't edit link anymore :(

Built it and they won't come unless you get serious about marketing.

I compartmentalise. At work, I am satisfied by solving problems (with or without code) - this gives me some level of intrinsic satisfaction (internal value) even though it might no…

> I am Swedish and have made significantly more in tech than the author. So has many of my friends. If you're comfortable with sharing, was it through a company exit or IPO?

I would try two things: 1) Where do people that have use for your app hang-out or post about the problem that your app solves? Are there any online forums or subreddits or facebook…

Some things I've found helpful (I run a niche search engine and curation platform): 1) Find niche subreddits where people that are your target audience hang out, observe communitie…

Try and increase side project revenue so its ramen-profitable or at least hosting profitable

Go to a nice coffee shop, get a gingerbread latte and sit by a window, watch people walking by and write (or hope a cute guy comes to talk to me ;D)

I haven't left yet but I am currently considering medschool. I recently moved to a lower COL location so I would be able to afford the inevitable drop in income but thus far I've b…

Thank you!
