Solodev here, I launched my very first Mac app recently and it works!Over the last 2 weeks it has been downloaded 30 times for 17% of conversion.

I would like to ask for the help of more experienced devs, what should I do now? how can I increase the traffic and get it more downloaded?

Looking for early testers for SubCrush, a tool that tells you where you can safely promote on Reddit

SubCrush takes your project and tells you which subreddits you can actually post in without getting removed. Paste a link or two sentences, it reads the self-promo rules of ~1,000 subs, scores the fit, and flags the ones that'll ban you. It's free, no signup, and still an experimental stage, so I'm mostly after real usage and honest reactions.

What I'd love testers to check: run your own project through it and tell me if the matches make sense, whether the fit score feels trustworthy, and where it's obviously wrong. It hedges when a sub has no clear rule instead of faking a green light, so I especially want to know if that reads as useful or as a cop-out. Link: https://subcrush.fberrez.co

Roast my tool that tells you where to promote on Reddit (it ranked this sub as its own #1 match)

SubCrush takes your project and tells you which subreddits you can actually post in without getting removed. Paste a link or two sentences, it reads the self-promo rules of ~1,000 subs, scores the fit, and flags the ones that'll ban you. When I ran my own project through it, r/roastmystartup came back as the top match at 85/100. So here I am, doing what the machine told me.

Go for the throat: the name, the landing page, the fact that it's ultimately an LLM guessing at mod rules, the idea itself. It's free, no signup, and still an experimental stage, so nothing is sacred. Tear it apart: https://subcrush.fberrez.co

With the recent heat wave we got, what are your plans? Are you going to change anything in your way of living (job, housing...)?

My plan is to leave Paris for the countryside where at least I could enjoy an outdoor. I also want to change the field I'm working in to be in a greener one.

Do you have any plans?

Quel livre sur l’écologie et positif ?

J’ai lu du Pablo Servigne, du Diamond et consorts. Du changement climatique, à l’effondrement des sociétés, aux low tech

Quel livre sur le sujet conseillerez-vous ? point bonus si il est positif (ça me ferait du bien)

2 settings to really improve your Reddit feed (aka remove the trash)

Just go in Settings > Preferences and deactivate:

- Autoplay media

- Show recommendations in home feed

This has completely changed the way I use Reddit, I spend much less time on it.

I’m also developing a browser extension to deactivate the Popular and Video feeds that are just click baits and not interesting at all.

Le métier de dev en ce moment me plaît bien

C’est pas souvent que ça arrive mais en ce moment, je me sens bien dans mon métier. Je trouve qu’il se passe pas mal de choses intéressantes.

En fait, je crois que ce qui m’épanouie vraiment cest de faire des projets persos et essayer de toujours m’améliorer. L’IA est cool pour ça. Je note tout, tout ce qui se passe pendant le développement de mes projets persos et je demande à l’IA d’en faire des compte-rendus pour m’aider à m'améliorer, aussi bien sûr la texhnique, que sur le marketing ou la gestion de projets

J’ai aussi compris que je ne suis pas fait pour passer plus de 2 ans dans la même boîte. J’ai fait le deuil de trouver la boîte parfaite et le changement m’intéresse et me fait vivre des choses vraiment cool.

Je crois que j’ai aussi compris que je ne changerais pas le monde positivement avec mon métier. Je le fais autrement en donnant du temps et de l’argent à des assos et en aidant mon entourage.

Je ne sais pas trop où va ce post mais je trouve qu’en ce moment, mon métier me plaît et fonctionne bien dans ma vie.

Before marketing on Reddit, what would you have liked to know?

I have been marketing products on reddit for weeks and recently I noticed that posting videos work more and more.

I didn’t always got the results I would have expected. It is still very hard to know in advance what would work.

How do you use Reddit to market?

A remote job board for tech people that only lists roles you can take from the EU

I'm building a job board that would list all 100% remote jobs for European tech people (ex: software engineers) because I'm looking for a 9-5 like this

Might help other people in my case. Don't hesitate to give feedback

I finished the day #6 and the results were not what I've expected

When we try to promote our project to get visitors, we post on product hunt. While that might be a requirement to have a good ranking by the end of the day so we're sure our project is validated by the community, we're not sure about what it could bring us.

Like for example, I finished #6 on Saturday with https://usefoyer.app. I chose Saturday because it is an app more for indie hackers than big corps. I thought it was a pretty good ranking honestly. But by at the end I got only 100+ visitors on the landing page and ~10 downloads from the Mac App Store.

I think it confirms what I already thought. Product hunt is a kind of circle jerks where we all try to sell shovels for people who are not here to buy anything. We are all there to say that our shovel is the best one.

In comparison, on Reddit, last month, I published about https://quietdash.com. Completely a different product. That is one factor. But also it did #20 on PH on a Saturday. But the number of visits and people who subscribed to the waiting list was astonishing! More than 1k views on the landing page in 24hours and around 100 people in the waiting list.

This post might be opening doors that are already opened. But it is a great experiment of what PH is.

What are your favorite AI workflows? I’m trying to explore new things

My main AI workflow would be with Claude code that runs routine to discover what my competitors just launched in terms of features, evaluate if it makes sense with my products/audiences and would list things to do. It does that every Monday

Im trying to build something for marketing but not good at it I guess.

what are yours?

I use ambient music everyday when I'm working (as a software engineer). I'm now building a tool that would allow me to build my own spatial audio rooms

Disclaimer: this is not a promotion, I'm just sharing a personal project of mine

I made a small Mac app that mixes ambient sound in space instead of with volume sliders. You drag each sound around a circle, so you can put rain behind you, a fire up close in front, wind off to one side, and it actually pans where you place it

I mostly built it for myself to work and fall asleep to
