For marketplace founders: how small did you go before expanding?

I m building a two-sided local services marketplace, and one of the questions I keep coming back to is how small the initial market should be.

At first, Houston felt like the obvious starting point. But the more we build, the more I think city-level thinking may be too broad for an early marketplace.

Not enough News Apps!

I have long struggled with trying to consume news on my phone. I think news is still too high volume, uncontextualised and not built for learning. Do you guys have any good examples or ideas of News Aggregration app that can be built for people who are not news enthusiasts but would like to know whats happening in the world?

Does anyone have a strong opinion on where the IRL economy is going?

I'm guessing many of you have seen it already.

Pretty much every consumer company that markets itself as some version of "helping you spend time with friends in the real world" is becoming an event discovery app. I thought event discovery was a tarpit idea and we can't just have 13 different places to discover things to do.

Reddit Marketing via VAs (Virtual Assistants) or otherwise. Can you share what has worked for you?

Yesterday, someone posted on how they have nailed work through VAs on Reddit, and I've been curious ever since. Reddit is one channel I've spent hours on every day but never efficiently marketed. Check @nathan_may1's comment here: https://www.producthunt.com/disc...

Does building something to fight loneliness make you lonelier as a founder?

There is a strange irony I have been sitting with lately.

I am building an app specifically to help young people feel less alone. And yet, some of the loneliest moments I have experienced have been in the past year, building it.

Angel Investors. They re the early believers who back you not because of revenue or traction, but because of your idea, grit, and energy, even when the odds are stacked 99% against you.

I want to coin a similar term: Angel Users.

I Built a Simple SEO Pipeline for My SaaS Instead of Manually Writing Blog Posts

I've been working on Invocly, a text-to-speech SaaS that turns PDF, DOCX, and TXT documents into audio.

Like many indie developers, I reached the point where I knew I needed to invest more in SEO.

The problem?

I didn't want my workflow to be:

The early signal I trust more than sign-ups

After a launch, sign-ups are an easy number to watch.

But early on, I m finding a different signal more useful: whether someone can clearly describe the problem they hoped the product would solve.

Which CSS approach should we default to for new web projects? Discussion

Hi!

I wanted to gather some opinions from different people as to which styling approach we should use primarily while developing web applications for long-term maintainability.

For me, it is Vanilla CSS (or SCSS) because it forces you to understand core CSS principles and keep your HTML clean. If your team understands standard CSS architecture, they can easily maintain the codebase without learning a framework's specific syntax.
