This is actually the first use case where I agree with the poster. really interesting, especially for technical people using ai. why would you spend time setting up and installing an mcp server when u can give it one man page
I used it twice. It's good. You can also just take payments under your own name if it's a small project but otherwise stripe atlas is good. Only pay the delaware llc fee every year and that's it.
I made a vscode extension which I charge money for. I mainly relied on reddit + seo to gain users. Eg: I made interesting reddit posts, and made a pretty website. Then users find it organically
For me it was the developer experience and credibility. I run a small project (~4k arr) and I don't mind paying fees since it was so easy to set up. Also, the investment required to learn these things. I don't want to spend a lot of time configuring everything, I just want a simple page and that's it.
Work in a job where you talk to people (eg: supermarket) and you'll pick up listening skills. Also listen to family, friends, etc. I mean half of the battle is literally being open minded and just genuinely be interested in someone. If not, then why else are you listening to them?
