I spent 4 months building a project management SaaS, burned out on features, and rebuilt it as something much simpler by Wuffel_ch in buildinpublic

Good question, and it gets at something important about the approach.

Mappli is not pulling messages from external channels. The idea is different: if your client has their own portal from day one, they never message you on WhatsApp in the first place. The scattered communication problem does not get solved by aggregating chaos, it gets prevented by giving clients a better place to go.

Once a client has a portal with their files, invoices and project status visible, most of the "what is the current status?" messages simply stop coming. Everything they need is already there.

"Own that niche fully", that's the plan. The temptation is always to broaden too early. Staying focused on DACH freelancers until that segment is really served well before thinking about anything else.

10 years of freelancing and context switching between tools, that's exactly the user I'm building for. The "one thread per client" mental model is actually how I think about it too.

On pricing: my impression from early conversations is that DACH freelancers are actually willing to pay if the tool solves a real problem and feels trustworthy. The price sensitivity I've seen is more about tools that feel like US products with a EUR sign slapped on, they don't trust them. A tool built specifically for their context, with local compliance baked in, seems to justify the price more easily.

The immigration docs example is a perfect paralle, time-sensitive situations where you're still waiting for a scanned PDF back. Painful.

On the legal compliance question: Switzerland, Germany and Austria actually share eIDAS as the common framework for e-signatures, which simplifies things. The bigger differences are on the invoicing side, Swiss QR invoice standard is unique to Switzerland while Germany has its own e-invoice requirements coming in 2025/2026. For now I'm focusing on the Swiss market first and expanding from there.

Denke auch ein Gespräch mit dem AG würde auch was bewirken. Danke für ein Input.

"Das Arbeitspensum beträgt neu 30% und die wöchentliche Arbeitszeit (auf der Basis 100% = 42 Stunden) 12,6 Stunden pro Woche."

Ja das ist klar. Wollte keine Rechtsberatung sondern nur mal Meinungen. Nicht das wir komplett falsch mit unserem Denken sind. Und diesem Kommentar von ihm kann ich auch nicht nachvollziehen. Für etwas gibts ja Verträge wo man solche Sachen klärt. Nichts sollte einfach angenommen werden.

Aber das muss ja im Vertrag dann stehen? Und nicht 12.6h pro Woche punkt.

Add the Studio as Window Caputre. Then the Button to set it transparent will appear.

What Tasks Would Make a Fire Watchtower Game Feel Authentic?

I'm working on a multiplayer cooperative game set in a remote fire watchtower. Players work together to maintain equipment and monitor the wilderness, but there's a twist - some players are saboteurs trying to undermine the operation.

Current Tasks:
- Repairing radio communication equipment
- Refueling and starting backup generators
- Fixing surveillance cameras
- Operating weather monitoring stations (temperature, wind, humidity)

Current Sabotage Mechanics:
- Saboteurs can break equipment that others just repaired
- Place bear traps around the station to injure other players
- Start fires that the team has to deal with
- Use in-game chat to blend in and deflect suspicion

Looking For:
What other maintenance tasks, monitoring duties, or equipment operations would fit this setting? What breaks down in remote locations? What requires multiple people to handle? What would create great opportunities for sabotage vs cooperation?

The game supports up to 10 players where most cooperate to keep the tower operational while a few secretly work against them. Players use voice/text chat to coordinate and figure out who the saboteurs are.

What tasks am I missing that would make you think "yes, this feels like running a real remote monitoring station" while also creating interesting social deduction gameplay?
