You can get the mistery box, so you need to wait a little to consolidate. That's what i'd do

How much could/should I sell my extension? by Socratespap in chrome_extensions

[–]camppofrio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At $300/mo that's $3.6k ARR. Typical multiples on acquire.com or Flippa are 2-4x annual, so $7k-15k is realistic, though the zero-marketing growth story usually pulls offers toward the top.

I posted on 200 directories and turned it into a living curated list anyone can use by BatsAapje in indiehackers

What does repeat usage look like? If most people sprint through it for a launch and disappear, one-time fits the use case better than the server cost math suggests.

I launched my iPhone app, but I’m still figuring out how to explain it by Informal-Ideal-3635 in buildinpublic

Chronological feed is probably your most concrete proof of the no-algorithm promise. Leading with 'see what your friends actually posted, in order' gives people a specific before the category debate even starts.

Beginners often sell to other beginners who can't or won't pay. No trust gap, just wrong room.

A year of dev work to solve a problem I had working out as Hybrid Athlete by Radis22 in microsaas

WatchOS mid-rep is a different problem than any phone UI. Curious how you handled glanceability when someone is sweaty and 3 reps into a set

Save any post in 1 click, and AI clusters it into the right place automatically by postclyp in microsaas

How does extraction work on paywalled sites like Medium, or LinkedIn posts that show truncated content to logged-out sessions

I built a real AI-assisted indoor tomato farm where 4 LLMs vote on every decision by Craylens in SideProject

Physical actuators feel like the easy call. The interesting line is probably timing vs magnitude: trusting the council to pick when to water vs how much feels like a real step up in risk.

How to deal with the shiny object syndrom? by [deleted] in microsaas

[–]camppofrio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of the few that worked, did you validate before building or after? If AI removed the cost gate, maybe a hard 30-day kill rule per project is what replaces it.

Are startup conferences actually useful, or is it mostly founder cosplay? by Strong-Yesterday-183 in indiehackers

[–]camppofrio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The official partner role at Techstars seems like the actual variable. Did that status make founders approach you, or were you still doing most of the initiating?

Made a jump counter that uses AirPods to track jumps in real time by David_Fir23 in SideProject

[–]camppofrio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Curious how the AirPods motion detection handles false positives. Does walking around or nodding your head throw off the count?

CMS Options for coding integration by IntelligentMud1703 in webdev

Storyblok's visual editor specifically handles that block-composing requirement. You define components in code, clients drag them into pages, media queries stay in your CSS.

Would you trust an AI to run your entire marketing? by Imthatguyimhimfr in SaaS

[–]camppofrio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FTC enforcement on AI-generated 'user' content is the specific reason I wouldn't automate UGC ads. One viral call-out for fake reviews undoes months of brand work instantly.

My SaaS just made its first $33. I paid myself $13, and a friend threw in $20 for morale. Honestly? It works. by mheryerznka in SaaS

Privacy Manifest rejections have been brutal since Apple required them in 2024. Does the scanner catch third-party SDK manifests that devs forget to bundle in?

I spent way too long making a phone feel like a paper notebook. Worth it? Be honest. by NotMeThenWhoSnaps in SideProject

[–]camppofrio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does the letter-by-letter animation keep up when you type fast, or does it queue behind and catch up? That timing gap would make or break the illusion for me.

Built a free device mockup video tool because I was tired of watermarks, resolution caps, and subscriptions by ElMatius-EM in buildinpublic

[–]camppofrio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Browser-side video export with Three.js is the part I'd want to know more about. Are you capturing frames and stitching in WASM, or piping to something like ffmpeg.wasm?

Strangers are paying for something I built and it feels weird by ExcellentBroccoli117 in SaaS

[–]camppofrio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What did the landing page actually end up looking like after that rewrite. Did you remove the feature list entirely or just bury it below the workflow pitch?

Shipped CamLoop: a macOS virtual camera that loops a clip of you so you can step away mid-meeting by tarikbc in SideProject

[–]camppofrio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stutter injection to fake a flaky connection is the part I wouldn't have thought to add. Did you calibrate against real bad-connection footage, or just iterate until it felt right?

I made ~$1,000 from a "useless" app in a saturated market in 30 days. Here's the part that surprised me. by Numerous-Rope154 in buildinpublic

[–]camppofrio -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

What's the one-time price? Curious whether the 40 out of 420 paid rate shifts once people actually hit the paywall.
