    It's my strategy too. I made $5k/month from my previous 9-5 job in 2019, and Proxyman only made less than 1k/month at that time Instead of giving up or leaving my fulltime job, I keep grinding it at night/weekends, until it hit $10k a year later. It's twice my salary and finally

    so, I decided to build my own Diff app: - ✅ Dead simple Mac app, just drop&drag - Diff like Github (Syntax Highlighting, Side-by-side or Inline mode) - and it's FREE 😆

    ~10,000 developers are now using my app every day! 📈 Let's say, my app saves 5 minutes per dev, it means ~833 hours are saved each day 🤯

    If you sell iOS apps, try to add a Lifetime Deal (x3 annual price). It's accounted for 35% of revenue from my iOS app. Lesson learned: People prefer LTD over annual deal even though it's much more expensive 😁

    It took me 16+ months to get from $0 to $5k MRR, 8 months to get $10k, 4 months to get $14k, and 1 month to get $21k MRR 🎉 My advice to indie-devs: Persistently build your product & audience. Hard work pays off 🚀
