Is Indie Hackers a real community?
- iggyblueeyes 5y agoThis is not intended to be disparaging of Indie Hackers at all. I'm trying to figure out if I want to get involved with the Indie Hackers community. It looks really cool; lots of people building in public and working hard to reach their goals.
- rozenmd 5y agoIt's a real community - there's just significantly less new stuff getting posted than before COVID. Seems to me like most folks eventually either outgrow the community or give up on side projects in general.
- iggyblueeyes 5y agoI wouldn't have thought engagement there would decline from covid.
- iggyblueeyes 5y agoOh I see.
- rozenmd 5y agoI didn't mean to imply covid caused the drop, but yeah last time I remember checking indiehackers daily was before the pandemic started.
- iggyblueeyes 5y agoAlthough bad economic times might put stress on solopreneurs in general. Current solopreneurs look for jobs for more security. Employees double down to preserve their jobs.
