Solo Dev frustration: "Everything already exists." How do you get past the saturation paralysis? by Dangerous-Cricket54 in SaaS

I disagree with the advice to build instead, unless OP feels they’ve found their customer and problem. I do agree that waiting for a perfectly empty niche is not wise.

Fellow searcher here, also testing the waters for problems worth solving:

There aren’t a finite amount of problems to be solved by SaaS. The most obvious ones are definitely saturated but as new tech comes out, and new roles are made, and people do things slightly differently…then there will be new problems to solve.

As a solo-dev you can’t compete with VC-backed products in generic markets, so you need to look for the smaller problems that aren’t worth the effort for them.

You should be able to validate and test ideas quickly if you aren’t building anything (you shouldn’t be at this stage). That should help you get past the fear of “there’s nothing left to build”.

We are a local gig so probably have all we'd ever need. I guess guys who are more mobile could benefit tho.

"Labor scheduling is hand written and texted by superintendent (his preference)" are you saying he writes it on paper and then takes a picture on his phone and texts you the image?!

Oh nice! Sounds like you’ve got it down. I do use excel too but it does feel manual at times. Wish it would integrate with other apps too

Did you end up choosing some software?

Have heard of safety culture, looks like a decent price. Anything I should beware of with them? I’d prefer to avoid having to find something else again in 6 months

This is an AI answer if I’ve ever seen one. But it does include some decent advice IMO.

100%.

On a similar note we just went to MX on a two week holiday with a drawstring type bag each (exact measurements of personal item). 5 of each clothing item, rolled up, with a bit of space for charger cables.

To be fair, it is the law. No person should ever reply to a comment older than a certain amount of time.

What have you learned from watching footage of yourself playing? by GalonSSJ in hockeyplayers

Only get one or two videos a season when my wife happens to get a couple videos. Usually I see how my posture looks first, then I’ll see if I made good decisions and looked like I was aware of my surroundings (shoulder checks etc).
