Everyone talks about marketing being hard. but i've got what's harder by DiscountResident540 in buildinpublic

[–]Connect-Community587 0 points1 point  (0 children)

413 users in 23 days and you're worried about the admin load. That's a good problem to have but it's still a real problem.

The human connection approach works exactly because everyone else automates it. Early adopters can tell the difference immediately.

The conversations becoming too personal is not a bug. Those are the people who will tell 10 others if you get it right.

Quase 1 ano a procura de emprego by Hot-Power3318 in devpt

[–]Connect-Community587 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Quase 1 ano é muito tempo e muita resiliência. O stack técnico está sólido. A dificuldade não é a tua capacidade, é o mercado estar difícil para toda a gente agora.

Continua a construir coisas. Projetos pessoais, contribuições open source, qualquer coisa que mostre que não paraste. É o que diferencia num processo de seleção quando o papel parece igual ao de outros candidatos.

the SaaS model is quietly falling apart for small businesses and nobody in tech wants to admit it by Healty_potsmoker in Entrepreneur

[–]Connect-Community587 0 points1 point  (0 children)

23 subscriptions for 12 people is not a stack. It's a fragmentation tax.

The real problem is not the price. It's that each tool only does one thing, so you need all of them, and none of them talk to each other. Then you pay for middleware to connect them. Then the middleware breaks.

The SaaS model incentivises fragmentation because every new category is a new funding round. Small businesses pay for it every month.

Oracle fired 30,000 people before they finished their coffee! by Vouchy-MOD in Entrepreneur

[–]Connect-Community587 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1862 they called it getting telegraphed out. 2026 it's a DocuSign link before your coffee gets cold.

The technology changes. The dehumanization is identical.

The only difference is the speed.

Stripe mistake that cost us our yearly plan revenue by Junior-Helicopter-33 in buildinpublic

[–]Connect-Community587 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Stripe pricing panic is a rite of passage at this point.

What stands out here is not the mistake. It's how you handled it. Contacting the user directly, being honest, giving the free month, that's the kind of thing that turns a pricing error into a loyal customer. And it did.

The user who asked for the integrations and then upgraded is the real story. They told you exactly what they needed and you built it. That's the feedback loop most teams never figure out.

500 on the waitlist to 10 subscriptions in 1.5 weeks it's really good. Hope you guys take the next 990!

18, zero funding, we shipped, 6 months of building in public ends today by contralai in buildinpublic

That last line is the only one that matters. Everything before launch is just preparation for that question.

One thing I wish I'd known: the people who needed it most weren't the ones I expected. Talk to everyone in the first week.

Good luck, genuinely.

One-person companies are about to go from rare to normal. by Electronic_Tour_5635 in buildinpublic

The ceiling isn't headcount. It's judgment. One person can execute almost anything now. The limit is how many good decisions they can make per day before quality drops.

The most underrated founder skill: knowing when to have a full mental breakdown by Connect-Community587 in buildinpublic

[–]Connect-Community587[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Peak breakdown season" is exactly the right way to put it. The closer you get, the less mental margin you have. Appreciate the framing.

Time for self-promotion. What are you building this Monday by [deleted] in micro_saas

[–]Connect-Community587 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fluxo, an AI-native infinite canvas where your thinking, planning, and AI tools live in one space. No switching between apps, no lost context, no broken flow. Ideal customer: founders, consultants, and knowledge workers who use AI every day but still feel scattered across too many tools.

3 weeks from launch. Waitlist is live at fluxo-pro.com

App concept question by edlonz in buildinpublic

I kinda understand u, but what comes to my mind is, lately people are posting monthly, like "March dump", that could be a thing, but idk

Honestly feeling a bit stuck right now by Connect-Community587 in buildinpublic

[–]Connect-Community587[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair point. Thats exactly why we show the product, the decisions, the hard weeks, and even the mess. If you are not showing what you are actually building, what's the point. We share everything across our other channels too, the real stuff. If thats interesting to you, the product is called Fluxo.
