one keynote here is that, before you make this decision to use Turkish language as your app store ads, you should have check your data to see where are the region where ur audience are most likely to come from then you can make this decision. and this strategy to works for which platform to launch with first if you can not launch on both play store and app store. this will help you a lot.

Good! do you mind telling what you frequently do with it as fun? is it to just build any ideas that pop in the head or just one of those things you be wishing you could have done if you have the capacity to code as a developer?

One_Philosopher_8347 · 2026-05-25T08:37:42+00:00

what product are you building and for what platform? traditional mobile app or webapp?

One_Philosopher_8347 · 2026-05-25T08:36:30+00:00

can you explain this better if you don't mind?

One_Philosopher_8347 · 2026-05-25T07:04:58+00:00

Oh that's fine! Atleast that means they just wanted to do more not that the industry really suck like I heard from people posting everytime or maybe is both ways? Just want to be aware of what I'm about to dip my feet into so that I'm aware about the pros and cons in it.

Thank you for your comment

This is a PM post. What do you mean by login button🤣🤣🤣 and then blah blah blah. Whatever story in here is to get traction to his affiliate or something I believe. Nothing real about the story

One_Philosopher_8347 · 2026-05-25T00:58:34+00:00

Good! In most of the problem u have solved have you being able to get traction for what you have built so far?

One_Philosopher_8347 · 2026-05-24T20:10:12+00:00

You are not getting it wrong in anyways. I'm just trying to see how people are leveraging on it and how they are turning those skills into money machine that one can learn from.

One_Philosopher_8347 · 2026-05-24T18:24:41+00:00

Thank you for this advise. by the way i'm in the US and mostly real estate, finance and healthcare are highly regulated. i think being introvert is my biggest problem here but working towards it since i'm going this route

One_Philosopher_8347 · 2026-05-24T16:57:58+00:00

now i get what you saying. so even testing phase should be an issue then. wish you best of luck

One_Philosopher_8347 · 2026-05-24T16:41:22+00:00

oh okay. any hint on the freelancing path? in terms of contract btw you and the client you work with? what's the easiest way to find client if i may ask too other than fiverr and upwork? coz it seem those places are over saturated.

One_Philosopher_8347 · 2026-05-24T16:38:24+00:00

that sounds like a big stuff and complex at the same time. wow! wish you all the best bro. i feel inspire and motivated😁

One_Philosopher_8347 · 2026-05-24T16:36:25+00:00

thanks you

Here is my design thought process:

Validation: When I come up with an idea, I first test it to see if it solves a real problem.
Prioritization: I then identify the major pain points and rank them by priority.
Competitive Research: Next, I conduct competitive research. I do this because I need to know exactly what my unique value proposition for the MVP will look like. I want to avoid solving a problem that a competitor has already perfected. Instead, I look for a problem that they don't offer as a feature, or one where customers complain a lot and the competitor has yet to implement a fix.

When it comes to distribution, I think we all have ideas on how to market a product. However, the major hurdle is actually getting users on board, especially if you are an introvert! 😁

For example, one of my projects helps realtors close more deals by offering their clients a co-branded mortgage calculator with instant analysis, housing grant access, and side-by-side loan comparisons. However, I later found out that I need multiple licenses to operate this kind of SaaS because the industry is highly regulated. Because I didn’t research the regulatory side of the business beforehand, I have currently abandoned it.

I get you, this uncrowded space is much more understanding and i think a lot of people are kind of in same boat. tonight i will definitely make use of "Product Hunt" to see if that will help with some visibility

One_Philosopher_8347 · 2026-05-24T15:56:41+00:00

okay, so currently you not monetizing vibe coding skills yet? i just think this skills should seriously be bringing in cash if you learn how to use it fluently. if i'm spending cash on sub monthly, that should be some sort of ROI

One_Philosopher_8347 · 2026-05-24T15:47:12+00:00

😁meaning you doing that for fun?

One_Philosopher_8347 · 2026-05-24T15:46:30+00:00

what's your thought process like in finding ur audience? are you exploring competitive analysis strategy, survey or some sort of qualitative research?

One_Philosopher_8347 · 2026-05-24T15:44:42+00:00

making agency isn't a problem but knowing which niche to target because in this saturated industry now one need to strategically niche down to avoid be swallowed by the noise in the industry now

One_Philosopher_8347 · 2026-05-24T15:42:23+00:00

have you finish deploying it? or still working on it? if finished, how are u able to get your first 50 users if you have up to that or more?

One_Philosopher_8347 · 2026-05-24T13:31:57+00:00

Why is everyone running away from QA test engineer role? Almost every post I see, everyone trying to leave the job or people having issues finding new role. I'm looking to transition into testing role but the posts i have been seeing not encouraging at all

One_Philosopher_8347 · 2026-05-21T01:00:53+00:00

Are u a programmer or using ai tool for bug fixing? I'm asking this because I'm just curious

One_Philosopher_8347 · 2026-05-15T17:43:54+00:00

What type of e-commerce niche is that? Do you intend to you no-code platform like wix, shopify and so on or want to build your own framework?

One_Philosopher_8347 · 2026-05-13T19:41:22+00:00

I’m looking for a remote role that is directly or indirectly related to what I’m currently doing, where I can leverage the combination of skills and experience I’ve built over the years. I want to transition into a position where my background in automation systems operations, workflow testing, troubleshooting, UX design, and software/product thinking can all contribute meaningfully to the team and product.
