Hey everyone!

I love the concept of "vibecoding", getting into the flow, using AI to build fast, and focusing purely on the product. But for a lot of developers (especially in emerging markets like Indonesia), that vibe instantly dies when it's time to deploy.

Suddenly, you are dealing with complex server setups, fighting DevOps configurations, or getting blocked because you don't have an international credit card to spin up a basic server.

Deployment shouldn't ruin the vibe. It should be just as seamless as writing the code.

I'll start.

Supabase. Found it here three years ago. Thought it was just another backend. Now I can't imagine building without it.

Here's what it does for us at Rankfender:

Auth that doesn't make you crazy. We have users across 120+ countries. Supabase handles sign-ups, logins, password resets, magic links, OAuth with Google and GitHub. It just works. We didn't have to build any of it.

I have made a list of platforms where you can create your community and share your knowledge in a closed circle (and in some cases sell memberships).

The list is according to my preferences, so the platforms I use the most are at the top.

Where do you regularly post product updates, company news, announcements, etc. Or do you typically publish those through your blog or website or even chat like Slack? I'm using a mix of a few and am curious which one will be the most active. What has your experience been like? Which platforms have you tried/want to try?

We're having some internal discussions about what users would prefer - a wide range of niche products (maybe in more of an app-like ecosystem) - or an all in one platform.
Interested in learning what the community things - primarily folks who use creator tools and publish / sell / create content!

I just started solo dev last year and have been trying to keep all early prototype projects low budget. I personally build in a serverless way on @AWS and pay only for what I use (<$1 per month). I'm curious what do you all use for low-budget development? Maybe I can find even cheaper build stack from you guys lol :)
