    Nice, Dribble scrape with 5%RR is pretty decent! Wow $5k - that's for what exactly? Try Google Ads - might be cheaper, dunno - @Andy Black has tons of content on this ... Curious how your reddit spiel plays out! I can imagine the "web/UX/UI designs" topics are pretty competitive these days...

    Interesting idea - I like the "self-service" aspect of it. Will you support annotations? Have you tried indiehackers.com? That's a place for devs to share their newest creations ... You might find designers, too How are you marketing it atm? What's your "battle plan" to get it to the first 100...

    IDEA 
    Thanks for sharing - I think it's a good idea, however, I see potential issues with monetizing (unless your idea is non-profit or you just want to code it as something useful to you = you don't mind investing your time into this one). I don't see buyers paying for this, because I think, by now...

    If there's a need, but people don't know it, does it still count as demand?

    Have you read the book "The Mom's test?" I think that would be the way to go to test if there is demand, going from Un-awareness > Demonstration (awareness) > ?Demand?

    Hey, when I had 9-5, I used to do 5am-7.30am morning focus, including the morning routine described in the Miracle Morning book. I did everything on empty stomach, so kinda combining the short intermittent fasting as well. Worked like a charm. Then, just to experiment, I also tried the evening...

    Hey - it depends if you are already technical - e.g. in electrical engineering or so - then it might be easier for you. If you are non-technical and your affinity towards coding is not great then I'd suggest you go to find the developers to build you an MVP so you can test the ideas with the...

    Hesitant to execute until I feel there's a market - feedback needed

    Hey there, few tips 1. Conventions - build awareness and network - as many/often as possible - not artistic conventions, but rather role plays, dress ups, 80s, even 80s music concerts ... basically, where the buyers go ... you don't want to sell to other artists, that's not profitable ...

    EXECUTION 
    Great that you are trying to find a structure. Personally, I wouldn't go for exact times, because it may demotivate you if you miss it. Rather define 3 main tasks with any subtasks that you need to finish every day, the night before together with the assessment of what you did on that day - what...
