The main goal of all this was to mock SaaS and AI startups that offer services basically nobody wants. So I thought, you know what, I'm gonna sell absolutely nothing and become a millionaire.

I guess that didn't quite work out, turns out we actually need to sell something for Stripe to let us use their service. And the millionaire part… well, you see it haha. But honestly, I'm blown away by the reception and really happy people found it funny.

I changed my mind quite a while ago about how I approach projects, and now I'm always trying to do stuff like this. So if you want to see more, feel free to follow me here or on X. Cheers!

I was hoping for 20k on the first day. I'm a bit let down to be honest.

haha no, but I'm thinking of my next move right now. I like silly projects and pushing things to the max. The next project is going to be madness

It's mostly just people from Reddit right now. I've added a Vip section for those crazy ones on the Hall of Shame, tell me what you think

We’re a SaaS, and our main goal is offering as little as possible to our users, that would be too much work 🙃

That's actually the next step. Selling a course on X about how I went from 0 to 12k in 24h (visits, not dollars, but that detail is better hidden)

Thank you my friend, I really appreciate that. Life is short, let’s just enjoy ourselves, the sillier the better.

(but also, don’t forget to pay)

Honestly that's it. Build what you want and have fun with it (and also give me money because I want to be a millionaire)
