You don't even have a domain and are already charging $19 for "unlimited" notes? I like the app, it's not a bad idea, but the business model is not great.
Just storing notes isn't a great feature, there are thousands of note-taking apps out there. On Telegram itself you can just send messages to yourself and they will be stored, editable and deletable.
- jajoosam 9y agoHmmm... What would you recommend instead?
- ReverseCold 9y agoFOSS with donations. I'm not sure if people would want to pay to use this, but if it looked nice and was FOSS then people would probably donate.
- lifencoder 9y agoagree because paying 19$ for this product is not worthy. as telegram already provides telegra.ph which is free of cost. FOSS with donations is a perfect monetisation strategy.
- always_good 9y ago> FOSS with donations is a perfect monetisation strategy. Only if your monetization goal is less than a few bucks per month. That's some serious Shit HN Says. Thanks for the chuckle.
- ReverseCold 9y ago> Only if your monetization goal is less than a few bucks per month. It's a service that exists solely through a platform that already provides a competing service for free. A few bucks per month is as good as it's going to get.
