You fucking nailed it.
Articles like this where proper due diligence verifying the authenticity of the poster isn't in place raises strong questions about how reliable and factual IndieHacker is.
I really feel like they fucked up by posting this article. The other article seemed alright but now I ask the same questions.
- fictioncircle 10y agoI agree completely unfortunately. It seems like they saw the original trendy tweet where he mentioned it and didn't verify anything. https://twitter.com/Sebyddd/status/821005789930389504 https://twitter.com/Sebyddd/status/821005789930389504
- jwmoraes 10y agoI had been asking myself this since I started following IndieHackers a couple of months ago. And now this article has brought up that issue more intensely. Point is, how can we really trust any article from the website if no minimal check is happening on the interviews ?
- csallen 10y agoI recommend treating the interviews like you would treat a tweet or a comment on Hacker News, just more detailed. If you plan on making a critical life decision based on the veracity of a specific claim, do some research first, and perhaps contact the interviewee.
