It’s sad, because this new tech offers the chance to target niches or micro-niches that, in the past, were either impossible to reach or too costly relative to the effort required.

Now that dev costs have dropped to practically nothing, it’s the perfect time to focus on new markets.

But instead... as you pointed out we spend our time copying one another, driving prices down toward zero.

People haven’t realized that our window of opportunity to make money is limited, it’s only going to get harder from here.

And imo bigtech will soon enough target thoses niches once the entire foundation of services has been established by them

Anyway GL and be different no matter what, it will pay off

Indie Hackers on X

= race to the bottom.

Datafast is already so cheap compared to Hyros or others in the market.

Coming after Datafast for a $10/mo discount is absolutely insane.

What's the next step?

Every indie hacker copies the tool they are using and makes it cheaper?

Then shits on the previous tool for marketing purpose?

Makes me sick to see that.

Just vibe code your tool in peace. Don't launch something that already exists like a hero just to save $10/mo.

Instead, use your brain to build something actually useful. Solve a real problem that hasn't been solved yet.

Anyway.

Next week I’ll launch Datafast for $18/month though. I need to eat.

Exactly, and if we add on top of that security aspect

now that security is at risk for most systems

You are asking people with cheaper price to trust you

Not saying cheaper means less risk management, but definitely people will trust builders that are around here for years and have good practice in general than you just for the sake for saving couple bucks

The risk of losing more is higher if the environment was isolated/sandboxed

Human psychology always works the same way

you hate it either because you failed to grasp a paradigm shift (your ego is at play) or because you’re "bag biased" heavily invested in .ai and you refuse to accept the loss of what you thought was an empire

let's see how .si evolves, but looks promisiing

[Dasher @dasherpro]

@Aladey Still early on .si

More potential overtime, we usually are months ahead the world on X, others will catch at some point too

A very interesting article, but I have a genuine question about this!!

You can’t constantly share high quality, informative content or insights based on your own experience multiple times a day.

So, do you think the frequency of posts will evolve over time and obviously reduce?

Or should these so called "experts" sharing their own opinions will have to keep "shitposting" on daily basis just to keep feeding the algorithm, while saving their "bangers" for when a truly great idea + their unique approach comes along?

But Tibo, i'm sorry but blogs really are DEAD 😆

- Discoverable by AI mode & LLMs
- Evergreen traffic machines
- Authority & backlink magnets
- Domain owned assets that compound

[Tibo @tibo_maker]

people think blogs are dead ...

but blogs are still the easiest way to build backlinks, swap links, build competitor-alternative pages, publish listicles and eventually get mentioned by AIs

free blog hosting on Outrank is actually being tested for a few days ..

and i feel this is gonna be big

[Dasher @dasherpro]

@s_chiriac I agree now is the time to build your moat and make it truely unique

Or pivot to something else

Sad but reality is adapt or die

[Dasher @dasherpro]

@s_chiriac haha fr

i don't know where we're going from now, 2027 will be exciting & weird at the same time 😂

@s_chiriac listmysaas about to rebrand to listmyoutbid 😂

[Dasher @dasherpro]

@marclou You can use FCFS method here

The first one to reach the daily limit you’ve set keeps its spot.

To make it fun and less predictable (you change the cap every single day)

So one day it might be $100, other times $250, sometimes just $40.. and so on

great idea btw !
