Made 240 USD in December.
About 9k visitors and 27k page views tracked through plausible.
Spent maybe 5 hours working on the codebase in 2023, which makes a solid ((240 * 12) / 10) = 288 USD / hour.
All of the money are from the watermark removal sales (10 USD). A lot of people say I could be making much more with some subscription model, but so far I'm resisting. (And the codebase is a mess :D )
- chocoboaus2 3y agoPersonally I think you are making the right call avoiding subscriptions in a side hustle project like this. Once subscriptions get involved you have to deal with a lot more complexity, churn metrics, refunds (more so than now because of people 'forgetting' to unsub), the stuff around do you pro-rata at subscription cancel or leave it running until date is reached, stripe makes that a little easier but its still a thing. so yeah, good move imo.
- koolba 3y agoThis thing is awesome. I’m going to be using this near daily. For bandwidth cost reasons I’m guessing you don’t support live linking right?
- kebsup 3y agoI think it would be quite cheap. The only reason is that I was using Gfycat which shut down. The reason I did not implement my own was that Gfycat was integrated with reddit, so that posting the link would automatically show the gif.
- jasondigitized 3y agoOk, I'm gonna need you to break down the motion tracking for me. Are you using MediaPipe?
- kebsup 3y agoNo external libraries are used. I just greedy search the image from a grid of starting points to find the best match. The similarity function is a sum of squared differences of the pixel values.
