i wanted to reach US audience for my app everyone said i need a proxy or a US sim card
i tried just a paid VPN
best video so far - 88.8% of viewers from the US. 0.3% from belarus where i'm actually sitting
if you're outside the US and need to reach US audience - try the simple setup first
don't pay for proxies until you actually need them
is it just me or does claude code start hanging for like 10 min once a session gets long enough?
zero tokens moving, just frozen. happens almost always in chats with a lot of context
created a new TikTok account
half a day of warm up. posted first video - 868 views, 50 likes, 10 saves
people say you need a 3 day warm up but nobody's actually proven that
if your fyp is tuned to your niche and your first video has a strong hook - it’s already fine
what's your tiktok warm up routine? curious if anyone else has skipped it
this is sick, but the missing piece is human feel
right now content splits into two paths that actually work, imo:
1. full ai with cartoon characters or something like that
2. raw human content that doesn't smell like ai at all
stuff that tries to be both, ai pretending to be human, just doesn't work, from what i've tested
honestly people don't put enough attention on marketing
market first, product second. otherwise you build something nobody asked for and wonder why nobody downloads
shipping is the easy part now, ai writes the code, ui templates everywhere, ship in a weekend
marketing is still the hard part
@Tech_Circuits@Tobby_scraper yo this is cool, college search/visits feels like a really underrated niche tbh
how are you finding your first users? organic on tiktok/reddit or something else?
apple's review process is genuinely the worst part of building ios apps
been waiting a week for apple to review an update.
no rejection. no "in review". just sitting in waiting for review since may 3
is this normal now? feels like review times got way worse this year
@pcshipp don't be afraid to try.
push the first app hard, different angles, different platforms, different hooks. if after real effort it's still not moving, then move on and build something new
@KCodes7777 been seeing more and more of these demo-style ads lately
product on screen in 2 seconds, no fluff. probably gonna try this format for my own app
@santoshstack "consistency matters more when nobody is watching" - this hits.
the hardest part of solo isn't the work, it's showing up day 47 when nothing's moving and you have no proof it'll matter
