I’ll start the conversation and hope its useful to some other dev, I hate that there aren’t any sites where I can just paste a link of a paid service like Veo and get a free alternative

Does anyone have any idea why, I thought it was also quite liked by the community, no need to open up the extreamly slow web browser just to post one image or pdf

Nah its not even always about profit, sometimes its just pure sloppy showoff like a page where I am supposed to sign up should not be promoting the company, if Ive already got onto that page why do I need to scroll all the way down to the join/sign up button!

What are u saying bro, itz still my go to option for transparency saves!, I don’t exactly know the details of the update but I am happy they are showing it some love

Yeah, that wouldn’t really do anything, google just announced it for gemini and I don’t really see a push back against it, meta wants to compromise the copy right of all creators on its platform and it too was allowed, sadly right now in the name of AI advancement every kind of privacy will be compromised

Yeah I am and I was too bothered by how hidden and how it was so spent like 2 hours and built it myself, for my own use, right now all I am trying to do is explore marketing for bigger projects

Your objective may have been different (the commits adds to your portfolio) or you may just have been a hobbyist but other than that, why would one be willing to sink hours!

BTW if anyone is interested in the WiFi app: https://muhammadj.gumroad.com/l/wifipassfinder

Yeah I have heard of bitwarden, but whats this eu mess, and if I am not in eu how do i get it

Yeah, I do know about that but there is also this phenomenon, I think its called observers bias, and I think it applies here, sure there have been great security breaches in microsoft but they are only known so well cuz u dont check chinese news!, or for that matter you may not even see small company’s security breaches on the general page of an english news site, microsoft is ubiquitous, no matter where you live or weather you follow the news or not, if there is a security breach at microsoft you will know it

Yeah, i get it, not a good company an evil empire but would you rather a company that you have never even heard of, who probably has a cybersec department that is funded the amount microsoft can afford for it’s cafeteria?!

So what you are saying is that unless you have a million dollar idea it is unlikely that indie software dev to be sustainable

Nice, uhmm I understand its quite a lot I am asking for, but would you be kind enough to tell me who I should be looking for in particular, for my product (on the post), its a new technique, and I am not even sure if the product I have currently uploaded even has the potential for a B2B

Any advice on how to contact them, just search for companies who could like my product and just mail them?

Yeah that is one route I meed to explore, product hint is a little competitive there are way too many new uploads each day and your product drowns in the crowd very quickly, but less popular alternatives would be a good option

That is actually a very good suggestion, in fact I have also tried this, if any others are viewing this here are the two main drawbacks with such plans: firstly its a very good idea and companies have bots who just spam these creators so youtube has a policy where you can only view a limited number of creator emails in a day, secondly again cuz of the spam your mail might not get seen by these creators or ignored

Anyways I appreciate the suggestion, thx

Hey can anyone give any context!, authenticator, atleast I thought was a loved app, what are we to do without it, I mean microsoft was a trusted company to whom I could rely on for my security, and its also microsoft whose killing the software, not google!, why has this even happened in the first place
