SaaS founders pile on features, users get lost.
It's not feature overload, it's the home screen.
Bad dashboards force you to think. Great dashboards think for you.
Show 4 metrics. Highlight 1 insight. Offer 1 next step.
That's the magic formula.
What do you think will actually make money in 2026?
- iOS apps: Users pay, less crowded
- B2B SaaS: Boring, steady cash
- B2C SaaS: Tough to scale, tough to die
- Mobile games: Pure gamble
- X creators: Quiet goldmine
What's your bet?
Getting early adopters is one thing.
Keeping them is war.
Reach out personally after the hype. Ask for brutal feedback.
Show up, fix things, share improvements.
Turning early users into fans is your secret weapon.
Obsessed with traffic numbers?
Vanity metrics are a trap.
The real measure: users who log in, use your tool, and come back.
Start small. Interview your first 10 users.
Ask: "Why did you sign up? Why would you leave?"
Building your first SaaS?
Don't start by building features.
Start by figuring out exactly who you're building for.
Find a specific problem, talk to real people, listen.
Niche down, being for "everyone" means being for nobody.
@Guronnimo From what I understand about your business, it's all about timing. You need to attract people who are at this specific phase (the need to laucnh) or keep them warm until they got there; What do you think
@lex_nullX I have a way to drastically reduce tech debt. I have wrote 12 standards that I put on adversarial review with claude code for exemple one on ddd, one on yagni, one on naming, testing, observability, security etc..
Shipping fast feels great until you drown in bugs.
As a beginner, pick one core feature and make it rock solid.
Cut the fluff.
Beta test with a few users and fix every issue they find.
Quality earns trust, don't rush it.
