Side project I haven't talked about yet: MacDualSpace. Run your personal Claude and your work Claude on the same Mac, side by side. Same for Slack, Chrome, Cursor, Codex. No logging out. No second macOS user. Each copy keeps its own logins. Which app would you clone first?

Gemini 4 Carbon dropped today. Be honest, which model are you actually coding with right now? Claude GPT Gemini something local And what would it take to make you switch? Be honest, which model are you actually coding with right now? Claude GPT Gemini something local you switch?

If you could make one song about your startup, what would the chorus be?

Things that got cheap in 2026: - writing code - a landing page - a logo - a demo video Things that didn't: - attention - trust - a customer who remembers your name Build for the second list. What would you add to either one?

Almost every country on this map is still empty. SaaSWorldMap: a 3D globe where you list your SaaS, extension, app or MCP in any country for free. Listing is free everywhere, only ranking costs. Which country should your product show up in first? saasworldmap.com

Your first 10 users won't come from a Product Hunt launch. They'll come from a reply, a DM, a Reddit comment, a friend of a friend. Small, boring, one at a time. Where did your first 10 users actually come from?

Your App Store screenshots shouldn't take longer to make than the feature they show. So I built App Mockup Generator AI: upload raw screens, it writes the headline, pulls colors from your icon, frames every screen and exports at the exact iPhone, iPad and Play Store sizes. 3 free mockups, no card. What's the most annoying part of shipping to the App Store for you?

Most websites don't need a rebuild. They need a second opinion. So I built Redesignr: paste your URL and it redesigns your site in fresh directions using your own content. Editorial, Bento, Retro 70s, Swiss Grid... Don't like any? Hit generate again. Which style would you pick for your site?

You can only keep 3 apps on your Mac for the next year. Everything else gets deleted. Which 3 are you keeping?

Drop a free tool you use every week that nobody talks about. I'll start: tldraw. I sketch every UI flow there before writing a single line of code, and it saves me from building the wrong screen twice. Your turn. Best replies go in a bookmark thread.

Devs on a Mac running out of disk space, check these before you pay for more storage: 1. ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData 2. Old iOS simulators (xcrun simctl delete unavailable) 3. node_modules in projects you haven't opened in months 4. Docker images you pulled once 5. ~/Library/Caches Which one was the biggest for you?

Side project: InfographicAI. Drop in a topic, a PDF, or a messy spreadsheet and it turns it into a finished infographic. Instagram carousels, LinkedIn posts, slides. No design skills, no blank canvas, no 2 hours fighting alignment in a design tool. What would you turn into an infographic first?

Side project: GiftSiteAI. Instead of another gift card, you write what you feel and it builds a personal website for that person. Photos, memories, little notes. You can even set a countdown so it only opens on their birthday, or lock it behind a question only they know. Who would you make one for first?

The hardest part of building isn't the code anymore. AI writes the code. Templates handle the design. Stripe handles payments. The hard part is getting 10 strangers to care. What got you your first 10 users?

Got tired of copy-pasting the same post into 7 different apps. So I built PostMCP: write one idea, it adapts it for X, LinkedIn, Instagram, Threads, Bluesky, Facebook and YouTube, then schedules everything at once. Free for 20 posts/month. How many platforms do you post on?

Things 20+ side projects taught me the hard way: 1. Nobody cares about your tech stack 2. The first 10 users come from DMs, not launches 3. The boring project makes the money 4. A pricing page teaches you more than a landing page 5. Ship weekly > ship perfect What would you add?

Unpopular opinion: the best side projects have an audience of one. No market research. No TAM slide. Just "this annoys me every day, I'm fixing it tonight." Half the apps I actually use daily started that way. What's something you built just for yourself?

Most AI site builders hand you one design and call it done. That's why so many sites look the same now. redesignr.ai works the other way: paste your URL and get a set of fresh directions built from your own content. Minimal, editorial, neo-brutal, luxe. Not feeling any? Hit generate again. If you redesigned your site today, which style would you pick?

Developers, confession time: What's the worst bug you ever shipped to production? No judgement. Every one of us has a story that still makes us check twice before hitting deploy. Best story gets a follow.
