Hello everyone, I’m exploring the idea of building some simple tools for small restaurants, cafes, food trucks, and similar businesses, and I’d love to get feedback from people actually running these operations.

I’m not here to sell anything. I don’t have a product yet. I’m just trying to understand what problems are real before I spend time building.

One idea I’m considering is a lightweight digital menu and ordering tool.

The rough idea is:

Customers scan a QR code, view the menu, place an order from their phone, and the restaurant sees incoming orders on a simple live dashboard.

It would not be a full POS, kitchen display system, inventory system, or anything complicated. Just a basic way to manage a digital menu, receive live orders, and see simple analytics like popular items, busy hours, order volume, etc.

I’d love feedback on a few things:

1. What tools are you currently using for digital menus, QR menus, online ordering, or order management?
2. What do you like about them?
3. What do you dislike about them?
4. What are your biggest pain points with your current ordering/menu setup?
5. What features would you actually want to see in a tool like this that could solve those pain points?
6. Would a simple QR ordering dashboard be useful, or would it just create another screen for staff to manage?
7. For food trucks, cafes, or small QSRs, would this help during busy periods or queues?
8. Are there other restaurant tools you wish existed but haven’t found yet?

Any and all feedback is welcome. Blunt opinions are honestly the most useful. If you’d rather not comment publicly, feel free to DM me. I’d also be happy to chat with anyone who has strong opinions on this space.

Thanks in advance.

Edit: If this comes across as promotional, that’s not my intention. I’m genuinely trying to learn before building anything. If you downvote, no worries, but I’d appreciate a comment saying why so I can understand what I got wrong.

Hello fellow bloggers, I recently started deep diving into the world of learning and managing finances. While doing so, I came across an idea of creating a blog that would have personal finance tips and relevant tools around it. And hence, I thought maybe I can create a website around it.

But, I’m not sure if even after putting a lot of effort into this, I would realistically be able to get some traction on this given that I don’t have a finance background so no authority in that way.

Could you folks suggest something based on your experiences? It would really help, thanks.

Hey everyone, today I posted my 4th video on my channel and it has been 3 hrs but I haven’t gotten a single impression.

Is this normal?

Hi everyone, I’m fairly new to YouTube and recently started a cooking channel. So far, I’ve only been posting Shorts.

I genuinely enjoy cooking, but creating content is much more time-consuming than I expected. Between planning recipes, recording from multiple angles, editing, writing scripts, and recording voiceovers, a single video can take a lot of effort.

Before I invest more time into it, I wanted to hear from people who have experience in this space:

1. Does cooking content still have good growth potential in India?
2. Is it realistic to earn a decent income from a cooking channel today? Could you please share some rough numbers?
3. How long did it take you (or someone you know) to start seeing meaningful results?
4. Are Shorts enough, or is long-form content necessary?
5. Would a faceless or even voiceless cooking channel work better from a monetization perspective?

I’m not expecting overnight success, but I’d like to understand whether the opportunity is still there before committing hundreds of hours to it.

I’d love to hear your experiences and honest opinions. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I’m a NewTuber and I have started a cooking channel recently. I wanted to know what do you all use to do research before creating videos?

Asking this because I recently read somewhere that finding the right video that people wanna watch is the most important thing

Hello folks, I started my youtube journey about a few months ago. I work in cooking niche I made some youtube shorts and started getting good retention.

But, now given that I have a full time job, editing and doing voiceovers for these videos gets difficult at times. Hence, I wanted to start a new youtube channel just for long format sort of asmr cooking videos. I feel like it’s gonna be considerably less effort for me

But I’m not sure if I should start this with a new ID or just add this as a second channel with the current ID. My other major goal is also to reach global audience as my youtube shorts are in my regional language and I’m limited by the language barrier.

Please suggest what should I do
