Getting your first users is harder than building the product

I thought building the product would be the hard part.

Spent months working on it, fixing things, adding features...

then finally launched and realized:

“wait, how do I actually get people to try this?” 😭

Getting the first few users feels completely different from building.

Curious how other makers here got their first 10 users.

Did they come from Product Hunt, friends, Reddit, X, cold outreach, or somewhere completely random?
