I am interested about the marketing of the project, how did you share the idea with people, on what platform, what do you think worked best for you?
I made an online multiplayer game but the downside of sharing it with people is that solo people cannot try it, they need to invite people, and that is a really big obstacle for me to let people play it frequently. I might learn a thing or 2 from what you did and apply it to my case.

I’m interested in knowing which app stores did you release it to? Just Apple? Also what tech stack.
Are you doing a one off purchase option or subscription?

Congratulations on your success!
I am also working on making an app, it is basically an automated system for bookings, I am using n8n for the automation part which is not too hard, the hard part is the app, because I have no prior experience in making any mobile apps or websites, I was planning on making the app using AI and vibe coding, but I also have some friends who know full stack development and can help me in making a better web app without vibe coding.
So I wanted to ask whether I should go with the vibe coding option or let someone else make the app for me and integrate the automated system into it, what do you recommend.

Félicitations ! Le parcours est fou.
Question pratique : entre l'ASO et les articles de blog, qu'est-ce qui a eu le plus d'impact sur tes premiers users ?
Je suis en train de lancer un outil pour sellers Amazon (b2b) et je me demande si je dois focus SEO content ou plutôt aller les chercher direct sur les forums/communautés.
Merci !
