A freelancer that works hard to become an indie developer

My name is Vladimir Kelin, I build iOS apps. Just search me on the App Store and you'll find 3 of them. However, it's been 10 years since I left working on a company and become and entrepreneur. Plans where big! And today... I have only 3 apps, and 3 more in development, some of them since 2017! What's my problem? Well, mostly it's a budget: I don't have enough revenue from the apps, so I have to provide freelance services. Good way to get rich experience, actually. But not the shortest way to accomplish my goal. What would you recommend?

If Reddit required face scans to prove you’re human… would you still use it?

With AI bots getting harder to detect, there s been growing discussion around platforms using biometric verification (like face scans) to confirm real users.

Cool in theory... Reddit is full of bots, fake accounts and garbage engagement. But let s be real

Reddit without anonymity isn t Reddit.

How do you decide what features should be free and what should be paid?

Let me start from the creator s perspective:
I personally don t have a product (apart from hiring people for creative work or offering personal consultations).

But as a creator, I constantly share content, insights, and information, value that helps me build trust (for free). Based on that perceived expertise, people eventually decide to work with me (a paid service).
