Episodes
We talked about Marc Lou's being hacked and why it is not that bad.
Also a little about why VC-backed founders are actually poor even if they seem super successful.
The biggest part of the episode is John lecturing (again 😪) about how to make viral content on 𝕏 and Reddit. Pretty insightful, especially for makers who struggle to get attention with their content.
Enjoy!!!

This episode's biggest drama is coursebois vs makers 🤓 It is my favourite topic because I want to make a course, but I do not want to lose my reputation as a "real" maker.
And do not miss the "how to make viral tweets" part. 𝕏 is now accessible to anyone. You can build huge audience within a couple of years of constant tweeting. Check out how John did it to get from 0 to 40k in just 1.5 years or so. It is a gem.
Have fun!!!

Enjoy the special episode of The Indie Startup Podcast. We met in person and I asked https://x.com/johnrushx about his ways to generate startup ideas.
The first part is more practical. Tools, exact steps to find startup ideas.
But at 46' we jumped to the boring fundamentals 😁. E.g. how to plan your journey for 10 years ahead, how to keep being motivated for a long time etc.

I'm starting a new show with John Rush!
We discuss the latest trends in the SaaS world from the indie makers' perspective.
In the first episode, you will enjoy 3 topics:
1) Acquisition of @jrfarr's @lmsqueezy by @stripe . It is good or bad?
2) SaaS boilerplates and the @marc_louvion one in particular. Should you use it and should you create a new one?
3) Will Europe become the indie hackers' cradle?
PLEASE ENJOY! 🤓
