@itsryanlenk The door to door part is brutal but honestly still works better than most paid ads right now.

You add a loading spinner to hide how fast something actually loads, because instant results made people think it was broken.

You get a five star review and immediately go check if it's from someone you know, because you refuse to believe a stranger meant it.

@JRDescendant yep, simple is easier to get adoption for sure

[sk builds @skpnky]

[Alex Ang @alexcosminang]

@JRDescendant I usually blame Claude and take the credit myself 😂

[Monk. @monkmodeceo]

@JRDescendant tell me you're unemployed without telling me

[J.R.’s Descendant @JRDescendant]

You open your analytics, see one visitor, realize it's you in incognito mode, and still feel briefly happy before remembering that.

[J.R.’s Descendant @JRDescendant]

ou explain your product to a friend, watch their eyes glaze over halfway through, and just say "anyway, it's complicated" instead of finishing.

You add a console.log to debug something, it works, and you leave the console.log in production forever out of fear of touching it again.

You refresh your Stripe dashboard even though you would have gotten an email notification if anything actually happened.

[Daniel Walton @danieldwalton]

@JRDescendant another proof of how simplicity dominates

[Daniel Walton @danieldwalton]

@JRDescendant Those small tweaks are what make a huge difference

[Lau Baró @Lautaro_Baro]

@JRDescendant hahahaha been there

[TeslaBiTS @TeslaBiTSreal]

@JRDescendant KISS in the works! It's always a red flag if you're overly optimistic about your own product, those you don't think will work are then the ones that could succeed the most. Difficult to find what to develop this way 😭

[Kris McGe @krismcge]

@JRDescendant Been there as well my friend

[VibeCoder @VibeDevCoder]

@JRDescendant i am waiting for that day

[Unfiltered Thoughts @Unfiltered_TX]

@JRDescendant The calmest founder posts often have the most chaotic browser history.

[LastBench @LastBench_AI]

@JRDescendant Insanely true, don't overcomplicate things. Just build what matters!

[Rob Cooks @ItsNotHockey]

@JRDescendant I spent so much time working on one thing and it was a weekend project that is getting attention and sales. Whatever though, I’m all in on it.
