Great insights so far. I'd also love to dig deeper into the early days: What did your first 3-6 months look like? Especially curious about strategies beyond referrals - how did you directly find and land your first clients before having a strong portfolio?
Hey, appreciate the detailed feedback! But honestly, this was just a silly little page I put together in a few hours for fun. Wasn't trying to solve any problems - just wanted to make some people laugh with dumb jokes and memes on Valentine's Day And you're right - I was trying so hard to be universally relatable but it might have become generic.
Cool ideas about what it could be! But you know how sometimes you just want to make something goofy without a deeper meaning? That's all this was.
And yeah fair point about the location stuff - definitely could've handled that better with Cloudflare!
Now this is getting slightly frustrating.. I have been tried to explain my original intention in the other replies, so I don't know why people are still bringing this up. Please refer: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43049817#43050394
Ahh, right! I could've used IP geolocation to get all the info I needed, without that intrusive location request. It would've been a much better experience and a lot simpler to implement for me as well. Thanks for pointing this out - definitely a learning moment for me! :-)
