Ask HN: Has your startup failed?
If yes then send me an email. Based on my recent post and a lot of research in the couple of days I decided to make the startup fail project.
If you want to share your failed startup story and get feedback from people in the industry that really know what they are talking about then send me an email.
An open Ask HN community consultation from 2013 where @mythriel convened hundreds of developers and bootstrappers to share real experiences, hard numbers, and tactics.
Core Principles for Independent Builders:
Participants share raw revenue figures, churn rates, and stack decisions that corporate PR never publishes.
Recurring answers reveal that distribution, not coding skill, is almost universally the rate-limiting step in developer businesses.
Practical recommendations on bookkeeping, payment gateways (Stripe vs Paddle), and freelance-to-product transitions.
Community Debate Themes:
Hundreds of active indie hackers contributed case studies, pricing heuristics, and pitfalls to avoid when moonlighting on side projects.
