UK founders: how do you keep track of Companies House deadlines and company changes?

Curious how other UK founders and small business owners manage Companies House admin once there’s more than one thing to keep track of.

What do you currently use for things like:

  • accounts filing deadlines
  • confirmation statements
  • director or PSC changes
  • registered office changes
  • Companies House notices or alerts

Do you mainly rely on:

  • Companies House email alerts
  • your accountant
  • spreadsheets or calendars
  • practice/company management software
  • manual checks
  • something else?

Also interested in whether this becomes more difficult if you’re involved in multiple companies.

What works well for you, and what part of the process is still annoying or easy to miss?

UK accountants: how do you monitor Companies House across your client portfolio?

Curious how accounting firms are actually handling this in practice.

If you're responsible for multiple limited companies, what do you currently use to keep track of Companies House activity and deadlines?

For example:

  • Companies House email alerts / Follow
  • Spreadsheets
  • Practice management software
  • Inform Direct or similar software
  • Calendar/task reminders
  • Manual Companies House checks
  • Something else

Also interested in roughly how many companies you're monitoring and whether your current setup works well at that scale.

What works well for you, and what gets frustrating as the portfolio grows?

Seeking Payment Gateway Alternatives in Nepal with Low/No Setup Fees

I am currently integrating online payments for my e-commerce site in Nepal. After researching major gateways like Esewa, Khalti, and Fonepay, I found that they all require a significant one-time setup fee (ranging from NPR 20,000 to 35,000) in addition to transaction commissions (1%-3%).

While I am willing to pay the transaction commissions, the upfront setup cost is currently prohibitive for my business model.

My questions are:

  1. Does ConnectIPS charge a similar upfront setup fee, or do they operate on a different pricing model?
  2. Are there any other payment gateway providers or aggregation services in Nepal that offer zero or low setup fees for small-to-medium businesses?

Built a new food review platform for Nepal called Mithocha! Would love your feedback.

I just launched a project I've been working on calledMithocha.

Basically, it's a review platform for our local food scene. The idea is to have a single place to review everything—from that random, unnamed chatpate stall in your neighborhood to high-end fine dining restaurants.

>

Here is what you can do on it right now:

For Foodies & Reviewers

  • Drop honest reviews and ratings.
  • Make your own collections (like "Best Momos in KTM" or "Weekend Wishlist"). You can keep these private or make them public.
  • Follow other users to see their food adventures.
  • Instantly clone someone else's collection if you like their taste!
  • Modify copied collection.

For Business Owners

  • Manage your team/users.
  • Reply directly to customer reviews.
  • Analytics are currently a Work-In-Progress (WIP)!

Since this is a super fresh launch, I really want you guys to play around with it. Sign up, drop a review for your go-to spot and tell me what you think. I am actively looking for feedback—whether it's bugs, UI/UX tweaks, or things that just feel clunky. Also do list your business if you are owner.

If people actually use this and enjoy it, I have a bunch of cool future features planned out to expand it!

Check it out here:Mithocha.com

Let me know your thoughts in the comments.

Backend is built on gogin and frontend is on nextjs. My gogin starter boilerplate can be found here: https://github.com/bantawa04/gin-skeleton

Subscription management platform recommendations for a local Nepali SaaS?

I'm currently in the research phase of building a SaaS product specifically for the Nepali market.

I am looking for a subscription management platform so that future customers can easily pay, cancel, and renew their plans automatically. I want to avoid having to reach out to users manually via email or phone to collect payments.

Given the limitations with international gateways like Stripe here, what are my best options? Are there any local gateways (like Khalti, eSewa, or Fonepay) that reliably support automated recurring billing/auto-debit for SaaS, or will I have to build a custom reminder/manual approval system?

Please suggest any platforms or workarounds you have used!

Thoughts on SU-25

For me it's a flying brick.

- No speed

- No turn rate

- Weak missiles

- Free fire ability good only for 1 lucky kill if you get enemy in your range

Changing career paths after seeing the decline of the software engineering sector

I’ve recently made the decision to change my career path and start a small business because, from my perspective, the future of the software engineering sector looks bleak.

Compared to a few years ago, the number of job openings has plummeted drastically. It feels like companies are struggling to secure new projects because clients are realizing they can just build products themselves using AI. Instead of hiring a development team or outsourcing to a tech company, clients are subscribing to premium tiers of tools like Claude or Codex, and using them to handle the heavy lifting. AI is rapidly getting better at writing its own code, making traditional development cycles feel incredibly inefficient and expensive for businesses.

Because of this shift, I decided to step away and focus on building a small business instead.

I’m curious to hear from others in the community: What is your POV on the current market? Are you seeing the same trend with clients pulling back, or do you think this is just a temporary rough patch for tech?

Hostinger is holding my data hostage 2 weeks before my plan expires (Disabled SSH, DB, and Dokploy + Support is a broken AI loop)

I need to vent and warn anyone considering using Hostinger for their VPS needs. My KVM 4 plan isn’t even expired yet—the expiration date is June 18, 2026 (about two weeks away)—and I have decided not to renew.

As soon as they realized I wasn't renewing, it feels like they completely cut me off from my own server to force my hand. Suddenly:

  • My external SSH connection (Port 22) is completely blocked/disabled from the outside.
  • My PostgreSQL database connection (Port 5432) is dead.
  • The URL to my Dokploy panel is completely unreachable.

My application and data are literally sitting on a running server that I paid for, but they have completely locked down outside access, making it incredibly difficult for me to migrate my data out cleanly before the final cutoff.

To make matters worse, their customer support is an absolute joke. It is completely walled off by an aggressive AI assistant ("Kodee") that refuses to route to an actual person. Every single time I urgently demand to speak to a human, the bot just puts me in a fake infinite queue and gives me the exact same copy-pasted response:

>

No one ever joins. I am stuck in a loop with a bricked server that I still legally own for the next two weeks, and an AI support bot that acts like a brick wall.

If you care about having actual root control over your server and need reliable support when things go wrong, stay far away from Hostinger VPS. They will lock you out the moment you decide to leave.

Is Antigravity paid mode worth it compared to Claude/Codex?

Has anyone used Antigravity in paid mode? I've used Codex. The problem with Codex is that it sucks at frontend design, but it's really good for backend tasks.

The GPT model has "card syndrome"—it constantly puts cards inside cards. Claude is great at both frontend and backend, but it burns tokens too fast; it's only viable if you go for the $100 or $200 plan.

I sometimes use Antigravity's free mode mainly to fix designs made by Codex. Is the paid tier worth it?

Currently job market for developer sucks

I’m currently working as a Full Stack Developer for a Europe-based company (remote), but I was just handed a layoff notice due to company downsizing.

According to management, the company is struggling to land new projects because clients are starting to use AI to build things internally. On top of that, several clients who paid us for ongoing maintenance are discontinuing services because they’ve adopted AI tools to handle it themselves.

I’ve been hunting for a new remote role, but the Western job market is brutally competitive right now, and I haven't found anything suitable.

Because of this, I’m considering looking back into the local market. I worked for a Nepali tech company early in my career, but my experience back then wasn't great—delayed salaries and the classic "hired for one role, forced to do five others" routine. Recently, I've interviewed with a few local companies, but the salary offers just weren't competitive. Additionally they prefer on-site.

For those currently working locally:

  1. How is the job market in Nepal right now for mid/senior Full Stack devs? Are companies actively hiring, or is it slow here too?
  2. Has the culture improved? Do established Nepali tech companies (or outsourced agencies based in KTM) still struggle with late salaries and extreme scope creep, or are there better, more professional workplaces now?
