How do you solve the catch-22 of getting feedback without having an audience?

I keep running into this problem as an indie hacker:

I need an audience to get feedback.

I need feedback to grow an audience.

Classic catch-22.

User feedback "From 12hrs to 30mins"

73% of engineering teams waste 12+ hours weekly creating status reports nobody reads.

Here's the uncomfortable truth:

Your stakeholders don't care about your commit velocity.

Do founders make good teachers? [The App Mafia case]

Over the past year, I ve noticed more founders stepping into the course creator role. Some are sharing genuine frameworks, while others lean heavily on personal branding and hype.

A recent example is App Mafia: a group of young founders (Zach Yadegari, Blake Anderson, Alex Slater, Connor McLaren) who claim to have built mobile apps valued at over $100M. They just launched a $997 marketing course, and the reaction online has been mixed.

๐ŸŽ‚ Built a 500โ€‘customer B2B SaaS before I turned 18 โ€“ AMA

At 15 I trained my first machine learning model and landed an internship at a U.S. company.
At 16 I launched my first startup and promptly ran it into the ground.
I learned more from that failure.

At 17 I launched Pleep, an AI sales rep that lets any business owner integrate AI into their sales workflow in under five minutes. Four months later I quit my job to work on it full time.

Why bother? I kept asking myself: Why isn t there an AI sales monopoly yet? My take: because most competitors deliver AI consultants that talk like robots and kill revenue.
We focused on building a real rep that:

  • Doesn t ask you to prompt or pick an LLM you just tell us about your business and we do the rest.

  • Talks like your top salesperson, not a bot.

  • Books meetings and pushes data back into your CRM.

When should you submit your product on Product Hunt?

A question almost every founder asks before launch:

When do I need to submit my product if I want to launch on a specific day?

Big news from Albato! Major feature update ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Stop retyping teammate reminders meet Slashit App Snippets ๐Ÿš€

One of the most frustrating parts of managing projects? Constantly reminding teammates about pending input. It s repetitive, distracting, and eats into focus time.

We built Slashit App Snippets to solve exactly that.

Here s how it works:

  • Save your go-to reminder once (like pending input )

  • Assign it a shortcut (/pendinginput)

  • Use it instantly in Slack, Email, Notion anywhere you work

Update: GitLab Integration + Smarter AI for Your Code in ExplainGitHub

We shipped a major update to ExplainGitHub and it s all about making repo exploration faster, smarter, and more useful for real work.

What s live now

  • GitLab support (public & private): sign in with GitLab and chat with any repo just like GitHub.

  • Saved chats & History view: your conversations persist jump back into repos and continue where you left off.

  • Smarter context: ask in natural language the AI automatically finds the right files and uses them for more accurate answers (no manual file selection).

  • GitDiagram visualizations: get an instant architecture map to understand structure and relationships at a glance.

  • Browser extension: open chat directly from any repo page or swap github.com explaingithub.com.
