Do you ever feel lonely building your startup?

I'm about to launch something and wanted to ask the community first.

Quick question: How often do you feel isolated as a founder?

I've been building for years now, and the loneliness hit me harder than I expected. Not the "I need more friends" kind - but that specific founder loneliness where:

  • You can't really talk about your struggles with non-founders (they don't get it)

  • X feels like everyone's winning except you

  • You'd love a random conversation with someone who actually understands

I built a simple tool to fix this for myself - basically Omegle but only for founders. One click, random video match, real conversation.

Before I launch it here, I'm curious:

  1. Is this something you'd actually use?

  2. What would make you trust a random video call with a stranger?

  3. Any features that would be must-haves vs nice-to-haves?

Would love honest feedback. Not looking for validation - just trying to understand if this resonates or if I'm solving my own weird problem.

Thanks 🙏
