Great site, considering sharing some of my projects.
> Learn how developers are writing their own paychecks.
Would love to see a forum dedicated solely to "indie hacking" for developers. ie. threads related to all the ins-and-outs of independent product development, idea validation, market research, dealing with customers, marketing strategies, founder Q&A, etc.
- seibelj 10y agoWhile there are certainly nuances and specifics to marketing independent software, the truth is that market research, market validation, business plans, customer service, etc. are skills that are independent and not tightly coupled with software. Reading entrepreneur / business / marketing books can be very useful. You can take lessons learned from one business and apply it to your software business. But yes, I've been looking for a a place where sharp solo tech entrepreneurs can talk, and even created a failed slack channel once, but I have yet to find it.
- csallen 10y agoI'd love to add something like that to the site. If you're on the mailing list then in a few days you'll get an email asking for site ideas, so I'd love to hear more from you!
- quicksilver03 10y agoThe http://discuss.bootstrapped.fm/ http://discuss.bootstrapped.fm/ forum should be fairly close to what you're looking for.
- vram22 10y agodiscuss.bootstrapped.fm and barnacl.es are similar to what you say. Somewhat low volume of posts and comments. First has been around a few years, second started somewhat recently, IIRC.
