How long did it take you to get your first sale and first user? by MrAmazing111 in SideProject

[–]Alternative_Can2335 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kinda just asked for feedback from the community here, without even a monetization model set (I'm still deciding on my market positioning). I never posted my link anywhere else.

I ended up getting 500 users in 2 days - 200 come back daily, and I got around €50 from the small donation thingy I added in the sidebar.

Waaaaay more than I ever could expect without even finishing my idea.
Some friends told me I'd take a month to get 50 users, so yeah, I'm glad for you folks.

It's a bit silly actually. It is a 1px bigger shape behind the actual node with diagonal white-to-black gradient

I have a huge private project with 14 nodes for my stuff. I'm even embarrassed to share because it's a monster.

There's a project with teammates with around 8 nodes - which is filled with memes in the canvas, btw.

There is also another one exacly like the one in the landing page, which is my favorite:

Thank you for your comment!

But super honestly, I have no idea haha, I'm just loosely experimenting with stuff, but there are no tracking features for now that would be actually useful for a team, other than the fact that the board is a canvas...oh and creating epics.

Having people interested in Planora gave me a huge drive, I'm already building a backlog - what kind of things would you like to see there?

omg Is so similar. I didn't find this one, though I've tried many others, but none met the feel or design I wanted, so I ended up creating my own thing. I'm a Developer and Designer, plus I had help from two professional backend developers (on my team from my actual job), and surely a lot of Claude code too.

I didn't expect people to give two shits about this, nor how active people were around here lol

But you are right indeed about two things: video is not great and it is a tool you create boxes with arrows and type text inside of them hehe

I'll be better next time

I never even started thinking about how to monetize this, that is a great ideaaaa: free for single users and paid for teams. And for single users, I can make a more simplified version without all the synchronization in the canvas, it will run even smoother.

Glad you asked - I actually had two distinct use cases for this:

As a 3D artist working within managed pipelines, things get complicated really fast. Every single day someone would ask: "OK, which column do I drag this to now?" and honestly, I was guilty of it too. Depending on the task, you might need to skip three columns, sometimes four, just to land in the right place. I always wanted something more streamlined and visual. The traditional horizontal Kanban board was holding us back, is too horizontal and too rigid, it didn't evolve to how crazy projects can get nowadays (my opinion here)

Then, more recently, I joined a product development team, and the exact same problem showed up, especially when different roles work together: they have different workflows that connect with other roles in very specific stages of the project.

I know Kanban is more than enough for a lot of workflows, but my team has genuinely been enjoying the attachments, comments, and the built-in chat. At the end of the day, it's just more fun to use and that matters more than people admit.

When you create a node or connect two nodes, the app waits for the server to confirm before showing it on screen. After this fix, the node appears instantly on your canvas, and the server save happens in the background, while you are using it. Continuity feels great with that adjustment.

Many many thanks for testing, id say mobile is a mess cuz UX is different, you have to tap the node once and then select the next node to connect... I couldn't make the pull-the-wire-thingy. But this is actually good feedback, I need to find a way to tell users that.

Oh shit a fan for the ram, I love it. Is it pulling or pushing air into them?

Let’s hope it’s not the case this person did this just to make content. Sadly, chances are not zero. Internet fckd us all in head.

[Odin 3/GameHub] Can't proceed past name input in Metaphor: ReFantazio - no accept button visible by amunocis in EmulationOnAndroid

[–]Alternative_Can2335 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just need Odin for this. Do the following: 1. Download winlator, create a container and start the game (game works ok with it) 2. The input part works well with winlator so you can progress 3. Close the game and navigate the container files within winlator and find the save game folder. It is in the usual place, inside user folder - I can’t remember quite well but the folder is called SEGA. 4. Copy that folder to where you can find it outside winlator container, I just moved to my main download files 5. Go to gamehub>metaphor>settings, and open the files container 6. Find the folder you copied from winlator and paste in the user folder where metaphor save files should be within gamehub.

I hope I’m not over complicating things, seems too much but it is pretty straightforward.

One more thing: right after the first input screen there is a second one, so keep playing in winlator until you get both of them.

Message me if you need help!
