Yep, I'm there, been going for a year, it's amazing how quickly time passes by. Getting ready to ship, for realsies this time. Maybe I'm imagining, but due to the unimaginable number of apps and SaaS out there today, it's not as easy to put out something you're embarrassed about. The only way to do that is to have something extremely small and polished, in which case it's almost certainly been done already multiple times. I'm sure there are some niches still to be filled, but it sure was easier back in, say, 2012.

- krallja 4y ago> it sure was easier back in, say, 2012 I was on HN in 2012. It was not any easier. People said the same thing back then. “Oh, if only I had gotten started in 2005, with DHTML, when things were easier.” “I wish I was paying attention when iPhone app store came out.” Just because you missed one boat doesn’t mean you’ll miss the next one. Keep an eye out for it. «History merely repeats itself. It has all been done before. Nothing under the sun is truly new.»

Felix the Cat was going then, [and] other things, and I just said, it’s too late. I should have been in the business six years before.” — Walt Disney
