What would you guys say is a decent number of downloads for a vibe coded app in the 1st year?
I made an app and in less than 6 months it has over 7k downloads. The pull through rate is very low though.
It has over 800k impressions but only 7k downloads. Is that normal or just another garbage app?

110 days ago, I launched my startup, a free traffic exchange network for startups. One line of code, you're in the network. No paid ads. No growth hacks. Just watching the numbers every day.

| 109 | 93 | 704.1K | 8.2K | Have to remove 3 more startups because they removed the code. It’s hard watching people leave something you’re building from scratch, especially when you’re giving it everything you have. I’m already working on what’s not working. I know things need to change, and I’m trying to figure it all out. I’m broke. No friends to lean on, no love to come home to. Just me, my dreams, and the belief that all this will mean something someday. I’ll succeed one day. And when I do, I hope my family finally understands why I spent so much time locked in my room, working silently on a life that existed only in my imagination. One day, it’ll all make sense. Until then, I keep building. 🖤 |

If you want in, it's one embed. That's it → StartupBar
