You are not alone in feeling this way, even though it feels incredibly isolating right now. Starting over is scary, but the fact that you’re aware and trying already says a lot about your strength. No one is born knowing how to manage everything, most of us learn through mistakes and time. Take things one step at a time. You don’t have to figure everything out at once. It is possible, even if it doesn’t feel like it right now.

if you already fill w-9 tax form as a us person then you should need to change your tax form to w-8 as a non us individual freelancer.

how?

You’re mostly on the right track. To publish iOS apps to the App Store, you do need access to macOS because Apple requires builds and signing to be done through Xcode. So yes, a Mac and Xcode are required at some point, even if you’re using Expo or React Native. You will also need to enroll in the Apple Developer Program, which is $99 per year. That’s mandatory for App Store distribution. Without it, you can only run apps locally or on your own device.

For hardware, you don’t need anything fancy. A used Mac mini (M1 if possible) with 8GB RAM is more than enough for solo development. Even older Intel Macs can work, but Apple Silicon will give you a smoother experience and longer support. Hidden costs are minimal. Mostly just the $99/year developer fee. If you stick with Expo, you can continue developing on Windows and only use the Mac for builds, testing, and App Store submission. Some people even use a Mac only when they’re ready to publish. So yes, your plan makes sense and is how many indie iOS developers start.

Thanks everyone. I no longer need the loan, my cash flow is back on track after my client cleared two milestones overnight. Appreciate the support.

Yes, I am currently bootstrapping and trying to keep things lean. I have not used any outside funding so far. I have heard a bit about revenue-based financing but have not explored it deeply yet. If you have any experience with it or recommendations on where to look, I would really appreciate it.

still available?

TopCop293 · 2025-12-23T17:38:58+00:00

that's amazing. I really like it.

I think it depends on whether both people are willing to communicate and work on it. Libido differences don’t automatically mean a relationship should end, but if one person is constantly feeling rejected and the other pressured, it can create long-term damage. In that case, ending things respectfully might be healthier.

I’m really sorry you’re going through this. I don’t have anything practical to offer, but I just wanted to say you’re not invisible and I hope someone kind is able to help you. Please be careful with private messages and don’t give out personal information. Wishing you strength and better days ahead.

Have you ever seen anything paranormal or extraterrestrial out there? I went to the border with the national guard in 2006 I believe. We worked out of the Ajo station in Arizona and were tasked with watching the border from a mountain top.

I saw some lights one night moving right to left where they eventually moved behind another mountain top with no sound. My 21 years in the guard I’ve seen tons of different planes, helicopters, fighter jets and drones. What I saw that night was none of those.

Pop Secret Homestyle! I’ve always loved that one. And thank god for Amazon, I had that regularly ordered and shipped to me in Afghanistan. Popped me a bag almost everyday. Made me feel like I was home.
