- Indie hacking, SaaS solopreneurship, however you call it: very fun and very difficult. I slightly miscalculated my own abitlites and had now 4 days of runway left. But got 2 months more of runway now.
Videofyles will launch on ProductHunt some day (first ever launch lol):

Piano sale is like sign from the matrix that you are going in the right direction
Hahaha best way to see this!!
great content! its funny how runway extensions always come in at the last moment. I have a running joke that I have had 6 months of runway for the past 24 months. It's gotten to the point where I feel like I shouldn't even think about it, because something always happens (but thats a dangerous thought xD).
From experience, i think you should only make it free, if its fits into a very tangible customer pipeline. And it would be much better to have something free if it is was a small part of a bigger product, and you knew your customer so well that you could draw a line on the features or usage, that you know they would cross into paid because of it (i know easier said than done).
i've been working on an open source product for a long time now and still struggle to monetize the paid version
Thanks Hakim and yes it's ridiculous lol but i agree, optimism can be such a good driver!
And yes good take on the free vs paid, that's really helpful input. And I agree, sometimes it also comes down to the product i feel though. There are just some product types where people are more accustomed to them being free and others not so much...
What's the open source tool you've been working on?
THE PIANO SALE 🔥 OMFG you got the installer working. you're a BEAST
Lol what would i do without it.. Yeass after setting up everything again from scratch but now working quite well. The biggest problem were paths and that my frontend source files weren't in the same folder as the electron ones...
the piano sale came in clutch fr!!!
ye crazy right...
Hi Ludwig! Just wanted to ask you what platform did you use to build the landing pages for Videofyles and flow tapes. They look really good!
It's built with NuxtJS+TailwindCSS but that doesn't really bring a certain design.. I guess I just ripped the design together from whenever I found things that I liked ;)
isn't videofyles the opposite of GUI...instead of commands we gotta write verbose text. Instead of asking again and again wasting time doing things that need just a click, one can do it by learning, say, from 30min tutorial of some basic video editor like clipchamp.
