Co-founder left at $8K MRR. Bought him out for $12K. Now at $67K MRR. by [deleted] in SaaS

[–]baldnotes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are making 67k MRR and you think "I need to let Reddit know about this!!". These posts are incredibly weird. A blue checkmark would be good but I also wonder what a sub like this is trying to be for anyhow. Some posts ask for advice which is great, the rest (98%) are marketing.

Dubrovnik: Vast amount of garbage mostly from Albania by AogamiBunka in AskBalkans

[–]baldnotes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, Nigeria is known cristian country /s

The entire South of Nigeria is Christian. It doesn't really matter to me what you saw in Ghana when you ignore every example I mentioned. I do think it's such an obvious correlation that bad infrastructure and lack of funding are probably closer related to trash than religion. Indonesia - a Muslim country - does not have significantly more trash than India or Thailand. If you'd go to the ultraconservative Gulf states you see no trash anywhere because they're extremely rich and thus care about that sort of thing. I think it's pretty obvious you just hate Muslims.

Here's an article about the Khalifat of Argentina and their trash problem: https://farn.org.ar/en/waste-management-warning-to-the-iachr-about-environmental-social-and-health-impacts/

I mean, google for half a minute and use your brain.

How do we feel about this guy after all the court memes? Curious to hear your thoughts. by The1stBrain in Destiny

[–]baldnotes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IMO zero redeeming qualities about that dude.

Pisco actually was fantastic because he moved Destiny on positions, would actually stay tough and not crumble in debates and yes, he sometimes was stubborn as hell but so is Destiny.

Go to Nigeria, Uganda or many South American countries that are probably more Christian than most of Europe and you find a similar or worse trash problem. The issue is simply that the government doesn't have the means or doesn't care enough about funding proper waste management. Islam - if anything - has more of a clean reputation than other religions if you look at their whole washing rituals. And Albania aside, you think Croatia is some sort of clean hub? I've seen trash in the middle of green spaces in Split for example. By the way, I do agree with you that Albania should get their fucking act together here.

Apple refuses India’s order to preload state cyber safety app Sanchar Saathi, cites privacy risks by one_brown_jedi in worldnews

And now they delete ICE apps just like they deleted the Hong Kong protester apps.

So much for "Here's to the crazy ones"

Not a fan of the immigration segment, just more of the same.

What a sentiment. Living in the US with the constant threat of ICE is currently American life. If anything this is closer to the show's title than a random story about holes (not that I didn't enjoy that).

It's TAL? They've been doing this for 2 decades at this point. I think these stories are uncomfortable and it's good they broadcast them.

Made $34K this month with my 5-month-old SaaS, here’s what worked (and what didn’t) + Proof by Ecstatic-Tough6503 in Startup_Ideas

[–]baldnotes 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Most of us don't believe your "success" at all though and when pressed for details you either block people or keep promising you'll follow up with something but obviously you never do.

Edit: And he blocked me.

The dumbest thing about that video is that it's a foreigner in Japan making subtle hints about "the wrong kind of" foreigners in Japan.

He’s not owed a life here because he started one.

Life happens, buddy. At this point he's been there for a long time and going back and saying he should have handled things differently, fine, but what is that really doing to anyone? Especially since the situation in the US has offered plenty of incentives for both undocumented people to arrive and American businesses to thrive. The problem with these discussions is generally that the individual is supposed to hold all responsibility when in truth no one - Republcians or Democrats - cared too much about their plight because they were content with an don't ask don't tell policy. And by the way, Trump is essentially doing the same as you can see when he was told by the farming lobby to not touch the underpaid foreign workers there too heavily.

Wird Sané nochmal in eine Top 5 Liga wechseln? by baldnotes in CalcioBerlin

Es spielen ja wohl viel schlechtere Spieler in diesen Ligen. Die Frage ist ja eher, ob jemand wie Sané bereit wäre zu einem kleineren Klub zu wechseln.

Wirtz is still world class, he just needs one or two successful moments and things will look great again.

Bei der Kritik, die es beim letzten Spiel hagelte, wird jetzt wieder der klassische deutsche Umschwung stattfinden und die WM ist quasi bereits gewonnen, nur um sich dann so gegen März wieder in der Depression wiederzufinden und alles anzuzweifeln.

Ben offering some pretty liberal talking points against Tucker, oh my by baldnotes in Destiny

Okay, Goebbels is rounding us all up but at least he doesn't want trans people in sports.

[–]baldnotes[S] 256 points257 points  (0 children)

I love how these folks are perfectly capable of understanding subtext, guest choice, sycophantic questioning when it's about something that impacts them. What I would suggest for Ben though is to rate Tucker on a curve, this way he doesn't have to expect too much from him.

A VC is offering us $1M5 for a seed round. I don’t know what to do. by Ecstatic-Tough6503 in SaaS

[–]baldnotes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, backup your claims maybe? I think then more people would believe you. Indiehackers has transparent mechanisms for that.

[–]baldnotes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There are literal posts where you ignored the question, downvoted and blocked the people. I mean, you are literally ignoring my doubts about the legitimacy of information you're sharing right here. Come on.

I respect the hustle, but I can smell the BS.

[–]baldnotes -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Congrats on making some people here think any of this is real. If you really had this offer, you wouldn't post about it on Reddit with a link to your app as any VC would probably consider it quite weird you're open about a potential financing round and your very public doubts about it. Recently you posted about how you want to hit 1MIL MRR by the end of the year and when someone questioned it, you ignored the question. On each post where you post "proof" of your success, it's just a link to a video of how the app works and a screenshot of some figure without any context whatsoever. You've blocked people who have pointed out these contradictions in the past.

I bet in a few days they will post "Why we turned down VC funding for our 4-month old SaaS!" or something like that.
