I don't know what to do on indie hackers anymore.

About a year ago, I was creating HTML templates for buildfaster.co.

Long story short, I learned a lot - despite it being a failed side-project.

I've even announced that I would take a break from indiehackers for a bit. Doing so I learned a lot about React, NextJS, and Firebase. (All are total lifesavers!!)

However after quite a prolonged hiatus, I've come back to the indiehackers.com homepage being lost. I want to create a SaaS that can bring some revenue on the side while fulfilling some tech dreams, however I have not stumbled upon an idea that is profitable and one that I have true passion for.

Now now now... don't give up on me just yet ;)

Over the past month or so I've been building other projects and growing my skills. Now I am planning to build a website hub for this sketch comedy show: Studio C (a little bit more info here: here)

Studio C is pretty much a clean version of SNL.

If you have heard of Studio C, I want to let you know that I'm only a fan of the older cast haha)


So sometime in the future I might come back to the indie hacker lifestyle, but I'd say that right now isn't the right time to do so.


But anyways, I hope all of you are making great progress on whatever you are working on right now. You've all supported me from the start and I can't wait to see what else you'll make.

Here's to what the future may hold for all of us :)

    Since you've already pinched the hornets nest, I'd like to add:

    Wtf is indie hackers anymore besides shameless self promo in every post and comment?

    It's been like a month since I've seen somewhat valuable advice on here.

      That’s true. I’ve been struggling with this too.

      Like, hey, I don’t care that much about this product you posted randomly. I’ve never heard of it before. Why bother posting and spamming?

      Also, 1/10 the product is actually useful.. 🙄

    Best of luck Brayden! You were one of the first few people who reviewed my product, and I will always be grateful for that.

    Hope you find what you are looking for man!

    What you seek, is seeking you.
