This means a lot. I have spent some time getting it down. A lot of blood, sweat, and tears haha. I agree with the templates. I am trying to allocate my time wisely and I think expanding that will be major. I am drawing up a way to make it even easier for people to create amazing videos. When you click "add new video" I plan to make it interactive and guide you along every step. Your options will be Do you want to cre…

Make it easy to create /r/highqualitygifs style memes and it will probably market itself!

I quit my job over a year ago. Been bootstrapped on savings. I picked up a gig last year and only made $30K in 2019. Hoping my efforts pay off.

Hit up Courtland at Indie Hackers. He has a podcast and your story would be a perfect fit.

Should help drive some traffic your way as well

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Looks awesome! BTW, the 'About' page has a missing image (I'm assuming it's you).

These are serious users who are consistent with their posting and are making a return. Those who are learning and new to the content game can get a few videos rendered per month to see if it's for them. Agencies are a different persona though and they would…

I was confused too. I recommend updating the text to be more clear. Congrats on a slick looking product.
