Honestly I think the IndieHackers website looks nice. I need to get Webase [1] added to IndieHackers! I get a strong "spartan" vibe from Profit Hunt ... or maybe just sparse! :-) [1] https://www.webase.com

Agreed - it takes a lot of restraint to get a website this simple and clear. Great job!

Or with more products and Stripe verified revenue: https://www.indiehackers.com/products?revenueVerification=st...

That link is broken for me.

It does not show anything with a revenue higher than $0 by default. In order to get it working, I need to turn off "verified by stripe" and then turn it back on again.

You can also click "Sort By", then "Revenue: High to Low". That seems to refresh the result

It's very difficult to read on mobile..

In Firefox / Chrome, tick "view desktop site" from three dot menu, and view in landscape mode.

If Indiehackers would not be such a bad website. It could be a really nice website, but somebody thought it should be an app and it sucks.

That was me. If I could go back in time 3.5 years and make a different decision, I would! Unfortunately I don't have time to do a full rewrite today. (I'm the only developer/designer on IH.) But I do try to make regular incremental improvements around performance.

I'm at a stage where I have a side project that works well for me. I'd like to open it up and allow other people to start using it, but I'm not really sure how to take it from fun project to side business. Do I need to hire a lawyer to draft a Privacy Policy and ToS? Do I need to incorporate an actual business in order to open an account with stripe to accept payments? Anyone have resources on the legal/operational part of this process?
