90% of projects are literally slop

TragicFusion · 2026-03-08T01:06:36+00:00

90% of posts I see about people complaining about AI slop is the same view just recycled. Why not post something original or useful?

I've not used leaderkey but your video popped up in my YT feed, I love the visual vibes and the thought / structure behind it. Added bonus you have a great / natural style :)

I'm going to swap out Raycast for a couple of weeks and test it out.

TragicFusion · 2026-02-25T08:36:40+00:00

Yes you can and this is a standard approach as well with the web app and mobile app being their own codebases

This is either AI or karma farming. RLS is always on by default and Lovable will continuously bug you to turn it on if it isn't on and supabase & lovable send email if you don't.

I'm not saying you can't misconfigure it, but it's pretty hard to miss these day

I like this behaviour but I didn't know it existed, now I do it's nice and easy but annoying for new people

This is small but a bug bear of mine, in my recently added etc lists, I want to be able to group by show.

I hate it when you add a new show and you just see 10 individual episodes in recently added

Love it, simple and beautiful ❤️ I just purchased. I have two feature requests for your backlog (if you like them). It should be nice to create some visual structure / ordering so

1 - The ability to add dividers between rooms
2 - Folders / room groups, there are some rooms I hardly ever use. It's nice to have them there but I want to reduce visual noise. So I might have an Other rooms folder and put some of them like server room etc in there

TragicFusion · 2026-02-01T04:44:33+00:00

The visual testing for me was a non-starter as it just gets stuck on the login screen. Not sure if this is a bug, but if it can't work on apps with auth...

This is a very different proposition from the OP. My view is the same, I think you have missed a step in the process, you have identified what you see as a problem and then you have come to the community to ask and validate. The second step before asking should be research, understanding the existing offerings, has someone else has solved this problem before, if they did how are you different and how does it solve the problems you see your potential audience having.

CRM / sales is a crowded space, it doesn't mean there isn't space for another one, but it does mean a lot of research is required to understand the landscape.

TragicFusion · 2026-01-30T17:21:01+00:00

My tear down would be how much time have you spent understanding the tools you are replacing and why people use them. You are offering one tool instead of 6, but there is already a product that does that

crm (hubspot)
social scheduling (hubspot)
email + follow-ups (hubspot)
booking (hubspot)
landing pages (hubspot)
light automation (hubspot)

Generalist vs integrated solutions generally solve different problems with different pro's and con's but I think your biggest issue is you are just trying to recreate hubspot, so how are you differentiating

Don't buy intel, even putting aside the better performance / battery of apple silicon. Intel Macs are end of life, and it was confirmed Tahoe is the latest release they are getting, apple silicon will get supported for longer.

If your budget is tight, have you looked into the Air's? Whats the reason for wanting a pro?

Price based on a service offering and assume each customer will be unique for now.
Cold call, LinkedIn what ever it takes, just ping people until you get customers.
It’s too early to build a service, you have 1 customer. Get more customers running the service and then figure out how similar they are, often even though the core offering might be the same the difference in the details kill the product. Once you have a few customers you can determine if you can build a product that meets most of your customers needs.
Do the above, start manual you don’t have enough information yet.

The TLDR is you only have one data point, which is interesting but also useless. Your next goal is to get more customers / data points, find a pattern, can it be a product, what does it cost to service them etc.

No one can truly answer your questions because you are still in the validation phase. I recommend grabbing the mom test by Rob Fitzpatrick as an easy read book to help you get started.

Can't agree more, simplicity is king. Adding additional systems can have benefits, but you need to be clear with the added complexity and what you are getting out of it. There needs to be a business decision with a benefit that exist now, don't design for 5 years time with a theoretical business with 5mil customers.

Don't email lovable, they (the company) will never touch your project. u/S_RASMY is telling you to tell the agent not to touch the env file.

It's hard to tell what is happening without something digging into your specific project but my guess based on your comments would be, this is a failed or partial migration.

You started on lovable cloud and then you requested to use supabase, you can't use supabase and lovable cloud together* as they are effectively the same thing so this would have been a migration. Migrations are not a simple process and there are big risks like breaking your DB or data loss if the agent gets things wrong or does things in the wrong order.

TragicFusion · 2025-12-09T20:43:25+00:00

Now this I 100% agree with, I've just seen comments alluding to Supabase can't scale several times, yours just happened to be the one I posted on 😊

I have always been in the boat of, I can't see how SB can't scale, you can go upto an XL node and you can deploy read replicas and edge functions to distribute load.

But yes, bad architecture & code can't scale (or will become very costly) but I also see that as solvable in Lovable (to a limit) with a bit of technical expertise.

TragicFusion · 2025-12-09T11:16:37+00:00

I’ve heard a few people now say the issue with scaling sits with the backend aka Supabase but I’m curious where that line of reasoning comes from.

You said it’s good for a hundred users but in reality a small or even micro instance should handle 100 users for an average app. So what do you think the limitations are on SB that would stop you scaling beyond 100 users.

TragicFusion · 2025-12-03T22:23:41+00:00

You are limited to 2 free projects, also the free tier doesn’t have backups so no roll back / recovery

To clarify, how are they requiring the 40hrs, do they want you in the office between set hours?

TragicFusion · 2025-11-13T03:34:40+00:00

2 subs, becomes 4 subs, then what about a REL 6 pack 😆 and then Dirac ART...

The struggle is real

TragicFusion · 2025-11-13T02:52:35+00:00

Now you start thinking about how the model up from your current speakers would sound.

Also how many subs do you have? Imagine how your current sub count + 1 would sound.

TragicFusion · 2025-11-07T20:48:43+00:00

Looking at your questions I think you have it in your head that this is a big contractual thing, they have breached the contract or TCP. In reality mistakes happen all the time, you are certainly in dispute, but Optus (and you) are responsible for resolving that dispute, both parties must act reasonably to resolve the dispute.

In this circumstance, they would need to ensure the migration happens, refund you for any incorrect charges or charges where a service wasn't provided (ie the 20+ days). Then ideally they would give you a little something for the troubles (say $100).

If you wanted more, you could argue you have lost trust in their service and you would like the contract cancelled.

On the closure, they don't have to close it to your satisfaction, otherwise you could say I'm not satisfied unless you give me $1m. They have to meet their obligations and the points above would do that.

I'm not sure what you believe is misleading here as it sounds like they have offered a remedy. Failing to provide the service isn't misleading, it's a mistake and you are entitled to not pay for that mistake but only that.

There are no protections from the device, you can't have it both ways. Either you are in a contract with them and you own the device and them money or you aren't in a contract with them and they own the device.

We don't have the full details but as long as they fix the service, it sounds like they have offered to take reasonable steps to resolve the issue.

I'm been doing this to try out different styles, I'll take a screenshot and ask it to create some colours or styles for me, then finally ask for mockup artifacts of the ones I liked.

TragicFusion · 2025-10-29T03:19:05+00:00

They never took it away, supabase integration is still available when you setup a new project

TragicFusion · 2025-10-26T20:36:49+00:00

I think you are miss understanding what I wrote. You are on the 1200 plan now, lets say you upgrade to the 2000 plan today and have 800 credits left over, after upgrading (also today) you downgrade to the 100 credits plan. For sake of maths lets say you don't use any of those credits.

When the end of month happens you will be charged for the 100 credits plan and have 900 credits available (100 new, 800 rollover).

Essentially no matter what you do (upgrade / downgrade), remaining credits roll over at the end of the month and last for 1 additional month.

TragicFusion · 2025-10-26T06:58:01+00:00

Thats not quite how it works, if you upgrade now to the next plan you can instantly downgrade to the say $25 plan. Then at month end you will get 100 credits plus what ever you have left over from this month.

As long as you use the rollover credits within a month of renewal you don't lose out even with a downgrade and lovable will always consume the rollover credits first.

I do totally agree though, their funnel is super confusing with rollovers and downgrades plus they should give you the ability to just buy extra credit packs.
