Shakespeare works as good if not better than Lovable, Replit, etc​ except it's open source and made by one guy, versus​ billion dollar companies with hundreds of employees. It requires no infrastructure because it works entirely on your device, so it scales infinitely for free.​ It does not seem like it should be possible. It's gotten basically no mainstream attention, and people are biased against it, believing it cannot be better than the crapware Big AI bubble software. But I'm here to tell you that it's not that hard.​

gas ⛽️ him up 😂 😂 while the marketing team is the reason he’s complaining about not hitting mainstream yet.
there's always room for improvement, but our marketing team is doing amazing work. i wouldn't blame them for this, it's more so the state of all of tech. if you don't have a VC's ass in your face, you're ignored for the most part.
then we should stop trying to go mainstream and be content with the few users we attract to maintain our integrity instead of competing with others funded by VCs and doing much of the ass kissing you speak of. When i publish my app on zapstore and it gets 10 downloads I’m happy.
When i have more frens on nostr i ll get more downloads. Cus when i post about the apps I’m building on IG and TikTok my frens from the past think I’ve come up 😂 i don’t how making an app = finally rich. Especially in today’s world where making apps practically only costs you Time.
