I came to exactly the same conclusion that real startup ideas often come from simple and boring problems.

Now I ve just started solving a simple problem for home appliance repair technicians and immediately got my first paying users on a very rough MVP.
This is something I ll find out in just a short while, one week from now (Jan 28), as I m about to re-launch a digital detox app. If you want, follow, maybe you will be on watch of my steps and activities
