~2 years ago, when I worked at @codesandbox, I donated around $2000 (sometimes 4k) each month to people in need. Currently, my only income is around $7-800 (mainly donations), and I live off my savings. Life is a journey. 🎢 I want to return to that stage where I can donate

🌶️ Look, Mom, we implemented PHP in 2023, but with a twist. It is complicated if you are not building a simple to-do app.

I don't usually brag, but some milestones deserve a spotlight. This month, I hit $10k MRR with my free, open-source software, @coolifyio. 🤯

💵 Coolify is highly profitable—at least in my opinion. In February: 💰Gross income: $15,700 (Cloud ~$10.5k + donations ~$5.2k) 💸 Expenses: $2,800 🤑Net income (before tax): $12,900 (For comparison, my last 9-5 job paid $1,700/m) I never took money out from the business,

Replying to @JanuarioPinto_ and @heyandras
A bit offtopic but I still think the pricing page and overall the financial side of this could have a little bit of love and perhaps more publicity, I really want this project to succeed and be profitable in the long run.

Holy sh*t, I bought a house (without a mortgage) from my free and open-source project! 🤯 And it's all thanks to you folks, everyone who is helping, believing, and using Coolify. 💜 I never thought this could be possible when I started Coolify as a side-project. The internet
