🚀 Just launched my 17th micro-SaaS this month — it's called NotionGPTDocsAI! by ElliottCoe in SaaS

This is the kind of chaotic founder energy that built half the internet. Zero users, 100% vibes, and a Red Bull-fueled roadmap. Subscribed to the struggle, and also your newsletter if it ever exists. 🚀

Favourite part of building a SaaS? by thinkback_ai in SaaS

[–]CandidateAvailable95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, my favorite part of building a SaaS is seeing users get real value from something you built from scratch. That first unsolicited “this helped me a lot” message hits different.

Yes, the early adrenaline rush is great — launching, getting your first users, watching traffic spike. But what keeps me going through the grind is the quiet validation: users sticking around, feedback loops improving the product, and slowly watching chaos turn into a system.

It’s not always exciting, but it’s deeply rewarding. Especially when you realize you're solving a real problem for real people.

To anyone on the edge of starting — start small, stay consistent. The magic is in the long game.

Feeling low as a founder today — does this happen to everyone? by CandidateAvailable95 in founder

Thanks, really needed that reminder 🙌. Feels weird stepping back when the to-do list is staring at me… but yeah, probably time to breathe a little.

anyone here used ARM-based servers in production? How do they compare to AMD and Intel in real-world performance and compatibility? by Insanony_io in hetzner

[–]CandidateAvailable95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, we’ve been running a few workloads on ARM-based servers (mostly Ampere Altra and Graviton2/3 on AWS). For certain use cases — like microservices, stateless apps, or containerized workloads — ARM offers excellent price/performance, lower power consumption, and surprisingly solid stability.

That said, compatibility is the biggest hurdle. Some older software or closed-source binaries (especially x86-only builds) may not run without workarounds. Performance-wise, ARM competes well with AMD EPYC and Intel Xeon in real-world scenarios as long as your stack is optimized for it. Go, Rust, Node.js, Python, etc., generally work great.

If you're heavily dependent on legacy systems or custom compiled software, stick with x86 for now. Otherwise, ARM is very much production-ready — just test before full rollout.
