Update: It did bring some people, unfortunately no conversions yet.
I'm bringing down the price from 7β¬ to 5β¬ as last resort, but this idea is close to being discarded.
After a bit of research in @ahrefs I realized I can't compete for the "ynab alternative" keywords in english results, just too crowded with very popular sites.
What I'm trying now is localized results, for spanish and german to see if I rank better there.
@IAmJerdog@speakerhouseio@alexddonate Still didn't write about it, too much work in the other projects π
Send me a DM and we can chat. I can't DM you...
@GergelyOrosz In Spain you get an spanish IBAN and a lot of services like credit card and investment.
I had it also in Switzerland but there it had not a lot of products and no own account for Swiss francsβ¦

@dexcompiler@davidfowl Yes, thats why I said like enum, to avoid that much of complexity π
Union types seem not trivial (in discussion since 2017β¦)
Btw, serverless for small projects it's a trap and 99% of the times don't need it.
VPS + Cloudflare is the way to go. π
(or https://t.co/XqfxHt709d if it's a docker deployment and your don't want to handle a VPS)
Indie Hackers: Don't fall for the free-tier pricing of the big cloud/serverless providers!
Usually it's ok if you have one little project, but as soon as you used your free allowence, it gets expensive πΈπΈ
Little π§΅

https://t.co/XqfxHt709d and https://t.co/hBSBNIiHbN are hosted that way for very little money (β¬19 but I'm actually over provisioned).
That allows me to stop working on a project for a while but it's still there, I don't have to shut it down or be concerned about costs
@TweetsOfSumit How do this things work in the US?
I assume they have similar laws but the culture is just differentβ¦
Is it so or they are just culturally more flexible?
@GergelyOrosz Iβm building stuff (fast) with .net for free but Iβm seriously considering using RoR in my next project, just to learn itβ¦
There are lots of remote, well paid positions in europe for RoR, but for .net there are far fewer.
@astrodotbuild@docusaurus Btw, I tried integrating Starlight to an existing Astro project and there was no way to make it work...
Still version 0.22 anyway π€·ββοΈ
Migrated the docs of https://t.co/XqfxHt709d to it's own site with Starlight (from @astrodotbuild).
For Your Numbers I used @docusaurus which is also ok, but doesn't have an integrated search π
Let's see how they endure the pass of time π
