Those aren't serious users anyway, business users who are focusing on their business don't have the time to clone and maintain their own software. People who claim to successfully clone and replace SaaS are never good customers anyway, they will either churn after free trial has ended, or post on reddit searching for free alternative

Yep, I got affected by this issue, OS should never run automatic update (security update included), this security update caused 4 hours of downtime to my SaaS : https://github.com/phusion/passenger/issues/2662

> Travelers going between cities/countries carry items for people who need to send stuff.

What the hell, why would anyone perform such high risk activity

You can copy a product, but you can't make people pay for it as easily

Are you using a newly issued card to pay for the servers? (or a prepaid card). Reddit has several threads like this, and a common issue is using a newly issued card to pay, which DigitalOcean might classify it as a fraudulent card.

Customers want a hole in the wall, not drill , drill is just one of the tool that can make the hole happen (a manual hammer works too but too time consuming and less accuracy)

Software is just one of the ways for users to achieve their desired outcome (eg: keeping track of business expenses / flow etc) , excel can do it, but some other software might make it easier than excel, with better UI etc.

If you want to succeed in making software, study the users workflow rigorously. "Users don't love software, users tolerate software to achieve the outcome they want"

You are progressing backwards, and I can tell you from 10 miles away this is not something people want and need and not useful.

"I'd use this" is easy to click, giving email is easy. The hard part is giving credit card details and commit to "yes I would buy this"

This article sounds like "I can't make a profitable SaaS, hence others can't too, and those who can, are using absurd amount of money or prior reputation to do so"

I advice to grow up and do some proper research on what problem to solve, and how to build trust with audience before pushing your products.

I dont have much money or prior reputation when starting out, I blogged weekly, then slowly launched technical ebooks, one time utility app, and finally SaaS , took me about 6 years of showing up every day to have a job-replacing income.

Your other post mentioned you gave up and declared failure after 3 weeks of launching your SaaS, I think the timeframe expectation you had might be unrealistic.

Bingo, the OP is selling AI, and wrote multiple blog posts to promote his tool, this is just fear induced sales pitch.

Good tool, but I am sure there will be a lot of bounty beggar who will use this tool to automate scanning for vulnerable small blogs / website for iFrame / clickjacking , and then send email to the website owner saying they have discovered "high impact security issue" and begging for bounty.

I am really interested to read articles about "people best at having business impact by making software" , so far I only discovered resources like kalzumeus (patio11), indiehackers, microconf, business of software forum (very old).

The company I am currently in never had standup, everything is communicated in Slack and Jira and everyone works well together for many years already. This article feels more like a promotional piece for their own SaaS lol
