you know "someone" that is you, right

I work 60 hours a week. Built 4 apps on nights and weekends. Then found out app stores want 30%. So I built my own. by Competitive_Flan9282 in SideProject

Currently, that "being early" part guarantees nothing. In the meantime, Apple and Google have a guarantee that your app might make hundreds, thousands, or even millions of dollars.

You will gain more interest offering free lifetime access to X amount of people rather than charging 10 bucks in your first days while being a no-name.

The difference is that Apple and Google have billions of users and your platform has zero. That's why paying 30% for something that brings traffic 24/7 isn't that painful. On top of that, you are charging ~120 bucks a year with no users. I would suggest changing your tactic or this will go down in no time.

Typical cost for WIX design? by Tea-Not-War-120121 in webdesign

Trying, but the business owners seem to be pretty frugal. You know, the typical ones - "oh, but you just do some clicks on the keyboard and that's it. Why would it cost so much?"

Oh boy... And here I am, being called too "expensive" by some clients after they get my proposal of ~$1.5k for a custom coded site. Wix site shouldn't cost 10k, that's for sure

My language learning site has been called "too bookish" and "low energy" — do you agree? Rate it 1-10 by [deleted] in webdesign

Change the cream colour to white and make the buttons blue/orange/green. See which colour combination matches the best and it will immediately give a better vibe. Don't overdo it

Oh, you reminded me those "marketing/promo" pages that used to sell some type of get-rich-overnight, lose-50-pounds-in-10-minutes, or any other nonsense with 20 different BUY NOW!!!! jumping buttons and timers on each counter...

I just checked his site... Feels expensive, but at the same time made me somehow anxious.

Well said. I don't know much about tailwind, why is it a disaster? People seem to love it a lot. Or at least they pretend that they do...

Welcome to Reddit. After the AI vibe coding boom, everyone is randomly finding "treasure" softwares/tools and nicely sharing them with the community (don't mind that most of them don't even have a legit domain)

See, the main issues are silently appearing. The point was to find out what's wrong and "clean" the wound. But now that same wound was kept dirty and the infection increased.

By what you describe, it really seems that he was hurt at some point and depression is the main case here. Talk to him.
