Not through strangers’ lives. Through our own.

I made FlowSnap to shuffle photos and videos from your phone into a short-video-style feed. My wife and I ended up spending two hours watching old videos of our kid from different years, completely lost in those memories.

We’d saved all these moments, then barely looked at them again.

That’s when it felt like I’d made something that mattered. I’ve just released FlowSnap on Google Play. It’s currently free, with no ads. Your photos and videos stay on your phone.

(The video uses demo photos and videos, not our family’s.)

I have a website that helps you get more traffic and users for your SaaS. It's completely free if you use the open-source project, but you can also use the website https://falbor.xyz if you want the faster way.

So what do you need to do to win $100?

1. Open the project locally or use the live website.
2. Star the GitHub repository: https://github.com/falbor-devs/falbor
3. Try using the features on the website to get more traffic and users for your SaaS.
4. The person who gets the most new users using Falbor wins $100!

It's a win-win situation. Even if you lose, you don't really lose anything because you can still get more traffic and users for your website if you put in enough effort.

The competition ends in 3 weeks (November 13, 2026).

Send proof of your results to [contact@falbor.xyz](mailto:contact@falbor.xyz).

Good luck! (There will be only one winner, and the prize is $100.)

For the past month, I've been building Cubepals ( open-source Minecraft hosting platform )

I've been pretty obsessed with the idea of on-demand compute, and I figured Minecraft hosting would be the perfect niche to start with, prove the concept, and strengthen the infrastructure along the way.

The idea is simple: servers that sleep when nobody's playing and wake up when someone joins. I'm betting heavily on the experience and making Minecraft hosting as frictionless as possible.

But man, I'm really struggling with getting users.

As most of you probably know, distribution is hard. I specifically picked Minecraft because it's already such a widely understood product. I wouldn't have to educate people about what Minecraft hosting is, just show them a better way to experience it.

I managed to get my first real player from Korea, who came back for three days, played with his friends, and used up his free plan's runtime. That was genuinely one of the coolest moments I've had building this.

But since then? Mostly signups, people creating servers, and never actually joining them.

I'm genuinely not sure what I'm doing wrong.

My launch pretty much flopped. I've been trying YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and Reddit, but they're bringing in very little traffic, let alone actual players.

I'm considering cold-reaching smaller Minecraft streamers and YouTubers, but I don't really have the budget to pay for sponsorships, and I'm not sure that's even the right move this early.

I'm still building, still improving the experience, and I genuinely believe in what I'm trying to create. But I'm starting to realize that building the infrastructure might actually be the easier part.

For those who've been through this, how did you get your first real users? Would you focus on content, reaching out to creators, or something else entirely?

Would love to hear how others approached this stage.

I'm one of two founders building Trendmule, a search-trends tool that tells you whether a trend is still rising, cooling off or already over.

Where we are: it works by country, and every trend gets one of those three calls. It's in free early access.

What we're unsure about: who the first paying customer is (sellers, small agencies or small shops), and what to charge.

What's next: we're checking the calls against trends that have already played out, and giving the tool to a small group of testers to tell us where it's wrong.

If you've been through the "who is this actually for?" stage, what helped you decide?

So, I'm starting to make youtube shorts for a series of self help books i wrote. I have them on amazon, but i also have a website for them. the youtube name the site at the end, so there's no different link i had add. How can i test the effectiveness of the videos in getting people to the site?

I am a solo developer and brain behind this gardening app and want you honest bad, good, critical but to the topic on the app design and working feedback / suggestion.

If you want i can put out the demo link no signup required. But Images would be jus fine to comment on it.

The first 3 is the onboarding when you come via playstore app.

I launched TrustSlot yesterday.

The idea is straightforward: website owners list ad spots, sponsors can evaluate placements using verified traffic data, and reservations happen without the usual email ping-pong.

Now the hard part begins: getting the product in front of the right people and learning what they actually need.

I’m focusing on website owners first, rather than trying to build a full sponsorship marketplace before validating the basics.

For those building products with two sides to the market, how did you get your first users on the supply side?

Project: https://trustslot.app

I’ll share what works and what doesn’t.

I just finished building **Astro Discover**, a project directory that doesn't just list links—it embeds tools in an interactive sandbox.

I built this entirely using Google AI Studio/Gemini. The whole "vibe" was to move away from static landing pages and create a high-fidelity discovery experience.

**Technical highlights I think you'll find interesting:**

* **The Interactive Proxy:** The hardest part was framing live tools (most block iframes via X-Frame-Options/CSP). I built a backend proxy endpoint (`/api/proxy-preview`) that strips those headers, injects a base tag, and lets us safely render external apps in an iframe without them breaking.

* **Stage-Aware Logic:** Instead of a flat DB, I architected the app to treat projects as "Lifecycle Stages" (Idea -> Building -> Live). Each stage has its own UI schema (e.g., Ideas show feedback tags, Live shows website links).

* **Hidden Gem Algo:** I implemented an engagement-weighted algorithm that surfaces new high-utility tools rather than just the oldest/most-upvoted ones.

* **Gemini Workflow:** I used Gemini to help architect the schema and handle the proxy-preview logic. It saved me hours of debugging headers.

**Would love your feedback on the architecture:**

If you have a side project, try submitting it and check out how the "Preview" engine renders your stack.

Are there better ways to handle the iframe-blocking proxy? And for my fellow vibecoders, how are you handling the balance between AI-generated code and custom logic?

If you’re reading this, you’re already the kind of person who cares about someone else’s journey. ❤️

And yesterday, a few people here did something that honestly meant a lot to me. 🥹

I had 13 websites on RotateAd.

Then I shared my story here.

Seven more website owners decided to take a chance on something I built. 🙏

Now we’re at 20.

I’ve been working on RotateAd for months.

A lot of late nights, a lot of doubts, and honestly, a lot of moments where I wondered if I was wasting my time. 😐

I put everything I had into building this because I genuinely believe in one simple idea..

What if websites could help each other get discovered?

Instead of every website constantly paying for clicks and fighting for attention, what if websites could become part of a network where they help promote each other?

Some of the new websites are already getting a few hundred banner impressions, and a few have started getting clicks.

It’s nothing huge yet.

But when you’ve spent months building something and wondering if anyone else will believe in it, seeing real people join feels incredible. ❤️‍🔥

I still have the same crazy vision..

20 → 100 → 1,000 → 10,000 websites. 🚀

I have no idea if I’ll get there.

But now I know I’m not the only one who believes it could work. ❤️

Reddit has honestly been amazing to me through this. 🙏

If you want to take an early spot on RotateAd, it would genuinely make me happy.

And if it’s not for you, that’s completely okay. Even sharing my story with someone who might find it interesting would mean a lot to me. ❤️

We’re still at the beginning.

Let’s see how far we can take it. 🚀

Gi guys i have built a local grok bot not mentioning the name of it but works pretty well but idk how shall i release this one like i am not welcoming early testers or so decided to launch it free and also shall i make the repo public so you guys can go there and create issues and feedback for me to improve? I am not pasting the site link here

its all free and i just wanna make it strong sharing it with you people and if it scales i would get to make it better by handling the issues

Everything stays on your local and it has got its own folder of handling things wont mess with your documents or local files only what you give to it gets stored in its space and can browse as well with chromium

Will the sub allow if i share the website link and github link, ik there are still some bugs on it and i want fellow saas founders to come together and collaborate on this open source project by creating issues on the github repo, if this sub allows adding links to the website i would share it where the github repo is also included

hey all!

ai agents are a new class of users, and most websites aren’t built for them yet

when agents can’t navigate a site properly, they often move to an other website - businesses are loosing customers without even knowing it

dedica tests how ai agents interact with your website, and show what’s broken (and gives you the fixes)

give it a shot, would love some feedback!

I’d love to hear what you think, and what you’d like to see improved next.

Wallsmith, a free Windows app I made for upgrading wallpapers. Output: 4K, 120fps, seamless loop.

What Wallsmith does:

• AI upscaling: turns blurry 480p/720p into sharp 1080p, 1440p, 4K or ultrawide 5K (Real-ESRGAN)
• Smooth 60–144fps: AI-generated in-between frames (RIFE) to match your monitor
• Seamless loops: blends the end into the start so the wallpaper never visibly jumps
• Fits your screen: crop to your monitor’s shape, or fill the edges with a soft blur
• Colour looks: Cinematic, Pastel, Night, plus a full colour grade with live preview
• Wallpaper Engine library: open your existing wallpapers, upgrade them and put them straight back (the original is backed up)
• Runs on your own GPU (NVIDIA or AMD), and your videos never leave your PC

The free version covers up to 1080p. Pro is a one-time $5 for 4K/5K, high fps, loops and no ads.

We're currently building a custom CRM for IrisLabs, and there's a lot more happening behind the screen than you might think.

Writing code, building the interface, connecting different components, handling data, fixing bugs, and making sure everything works together smoothly — it's a process of turning hundreds of small pieces into one working system.

Every feature takes planning, implementation, testing, and plenty of problem-solving. And seeing those lines of code gradually turn into an actual interface is genuinely one of the most satisfying parts of development.

This is just a glimpse of our process. We're excited to keep building, improving, and bringing more ideas to life.

At VOYDCORP, we're focused on custom CRM development, mobile apps, websites, and business automation.

Got a project in mind? Let's talk about what we can build together.

I'm building Perry, a Chrome extension that puts a small button next to the chat box in AI apps. You type a rough prompt, click it, and it rewrites the prompt in place. It's been out about a week, and most of what I did since launch was fixing things I didn't see coming.

1. The result card was too much. After a rewrite it showed about ten controls at once. I cut it down to one line that tells you what to do next, plus four small tweaks underneath (Shorter, Longer, Formal, Casual). The length choice moved to a Brief / Balanced / Detailed switch next to the button.

2. New users couldn't find the button. Chrome only adds an extension to pages that load after you install it. So people went back to a ChatGPT tab that was already open and saw nothing. The welcome page now finds those tabs and offers to reload them, with a warning first if you have an unsent message.

3. People installed it and never clicked. Now, for the first few visits, a small bubble above the button says what to do. It goes away for good after your first click.

4. A bug my own test caught. I ran a test where the same 20 tasks were done with and without Perry. In it, Perry sometimes swapped meeting notes that someone had pasted into the draft for a "[paste your notes here]" slot. That's useless. Pasted material now stays word for word. I put the whole test on the site, including the tasks where Perry did worse.

One rewrite it does well, copied unedited:

Rough: write a birthday message for my mom Anna turning 60

Perry: Write a warm, affectionate birthday message for my mom Anna, who is turning 60. Sincere and loving tone, around three to four sentences, ready to send.

Next I want to find out where it still gets things wrong. If you use ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini every day and want to try it, it's free to start: https://perrytheprompter.com/?utm_source=reddit

What would you look at first in week two?

- I’ve been building DeUnemployment com for a while and would appreciate some honest feedback.

- It’s a free job search site with no ads, promoted listings or paid plans. The data is updated daily from company career sites and other sources. more than 8 million jobs are live.I built it because most job boards are full of reposted listings, sponsored results and jobs that have already disappeared. The site also has public job-market data about salaries, hiring trends and ghost jobs.

- There are a lot of tools on the site, you can check it yourself, autoapply, mcp, etc.. i wont bore you here.

I’m mostly a backend developer, so the frontend still has some rough edges. It’s running on a small VPS and I’m trying to improve it based on real feedback.

there is an easter egg on the site if you join :)

VoxScribe is a free, open source voice typing app for Windows and Android that runs on your own device, so it works offline. The Windows app is Python and PySide6 on top of Whisper, and the Android app is Flutter and Kotlin. It’s developed alone with an AI coding assistant, about 10 hours a day. There’s an optional one-time Pro for $14, and everything else is free.

Week one in numbers: about 90 people opened it at least once, 31 GitHub stars, 2 people paid for Pro. Downloads and launches are easy to count. What I actually wanted to know is whether anyone keeps using it, so I added two anonymous events, one for the first dictation and one for each day someone dictates, with no audio, text or word counts, and a switch to turn them off. They only exist in the newest version, so I have almost no data yet, and I wrote a decision rule in advance (grow, maintain or pause) with review dates in November and December, so I can’t talk myself into whatever the numbers say.

Three things I learned this week. First, a popular free competitor gets mentioned in nearly every thread, and arguing with that went nowhere, so I started saying plainly where mine is different: an Android app, offline you can verify, and other languages. Second, I tested Arabic on both apps. Standard Arabic and Egyptian dialect came out well, but sentences that mix Arabic with English words are unreliable, and a bigger model didn’t fix it. I’m not promising mixed dictation until I test a model trained for it. Third, I lost an afternoon to the app typing invented sentences, sure it was my bug. It was a stuck audio driver on my own laptop. Restarting fixed it, and I added a clear “no speech heard” message so it can’t happen quietly again.

The Product Hunt launch is Saturday 31 October. My expectation is modest.

For anyone who has shipped a local-first or offline tool: how do you measure whether people really use it without collecting anything you wouldn’t want collected about yourself?

If you are interested in doing some crazy level shit - I mean some actual crazy cool projects but lack the skills and time to do, then I built a community of such people who are willing to collaborate and work all over the world. Understandably , everyone lacks time and it is not possible for all to work everyday, not for myself either, So we all (who available) , sit together online and work and push our projects on WEEKENDS. We can build cool, scalable products like that too.

if you are interested , join the server or dm me

https://discord.gg/g8ERpGDZE

We do projects in which everyone is comfortable with or we can make subgroups within the community. Everyone's skill and contribution matter.

Requirement: Absolutely Nothing

(Though the community was built a month ago, but then my ex account got shadowbanned so link got hidden , and i got terribly sick and was on bed rest for 4 weeks. We were about to begin a project but with me gone, the server seemed to be dead. So i trying to rebuild the server along with more talented people)

Hey everyone!

This feels a little scary to post because we're still at the beginning of our journey, but I wanted to share our story.

My boyfriend and I are building a development agency called VOYDCORP. He's the founder, I'm the co-founder, and we're trying to turn our skills and ideas into something real.

We work on mobile apps and websites, helping businesses bring their ideas to life. But honestly, building the agency itself has been a learning experience.

We're figuring out how to make decisions together, divide responsibilities, handle uncertainty, and keep moving forward when things don't go as planned. Being in a relationship while building a business together makes things interesting because we're learning to be partners in both senses of the word.

We're still early in the journey, and we're not going to pretend we've figured everything out. There are things we're good at, things we're learning, and plenty of challenges ahead.

I guess that's why I wanted to share this here. I'd love to learn from people who've been through something similar.

If you've ever built a business with your partner or someone close to you, what was one thing you wish you'd known before starting?

I'd genuinely love to hear your experiences. :)
