I am trying to do something a little bonkers - I want to build an app when I am a bit of a technophobe! I am a product designer - so it's not entirely crazy but social media, online forums is all really alien to me. I'm looking to put the feelers out there to understand the demand for the idea - any tips or tricks? The vague idea - without giving the game away.... People are incredible at tracking workouts, steps, sleep, macros
but somehow still stare at a single mug in the sink like it s a moral dilemma.
I m exploring an idea around why everyday maintenance tasks feel heavier than they are, and how the same psychology that keeps people hooked on fitness tracking might work for real-world chores.
Every feed today claims to be better curated or more relevant. But most of them still measure success by how long you stay.
I ve caught myself opening Twitter or YouTube to check one specific thing, then resurfacing 30 45 minutes later,
wondering where the time went.
Curious how this plays out for others here. When you open a feed for a quick check, how long do you actually stay? And does it usually feel worth it after?
Hello everyone, I'm Christian van Gils, Co-founder of PulseBoard.
For my entire career, I've been a dedicated entrepreneur. I successfully built and ran a media agency for 12.5 years, followed by a software company that I recently and successfully exited after 22 years.
Now, I'm redirecting all of that experience, knowledge, and entrepreneurial drive toward a single mission: making 2026 a healthier year by focusing on people.
Guys, over the past 3.5 months, we encountered one significant problem at ProblemHunt:
Many contributors who shared problems aren't very motivated to provide feedback to developers for various reasons. Even among those willing to give feedback, not everyone agrees to work with more than 3 5 different developers (for context: currently, one contributor receives messages from 7 15 people on average). And without quality feedback, it s difficult to clarify all the details and build a great product.
To solve this problem, we talked to some of the contributors and found out: they are willing to provide feedback much more actively if they can receive 1% equity in the future startup. According to them, this would give them strong motivation to help with advice and actively participate in testing.
Therefore, we decided to run an experiment over the next few months. Now, in the problem submission form, contributors can optionally indicate that they want to receive 1% equity in the future startup. And we will mention this in the publication for you.
By the way, if you currently have a problem and also want to get 1% equity in a future startup, you can seize this opportunity right now on ProblemHunt!
Still feels surreal. 5 years ago I didn't know what a startup was. Two weeks ago, we stood at @Stripe, sharing what we ve built... and the numbers are crazy:
10,000+ users in under 3 months (now nearly 18,000)
220M+ tokens processed in 90 days (that's ~93k tokens/hour)
Built in a space most people call just a wrapper . we went all-in on a single problem.
179,000 views in 7 days (I guess it s not just us who are geeky about AI tokens )
Here s what we shared at Stripe: milestones, mistakes, learnings, and our honest journey. No here s how you do X , only here s what we ve learned and what worked for us.

I put together a digest of the last few months building Ting - the good, the meh, and the lessons I can imagine me wanting to tell future founders so they can dodge the bruises and get to the good stuff quicker...
The good: - Nearly 1,000 users - ~50% MoM growth with no ads. - Added Outlook, Teams, Zoom + multi-calendar. - Launched Memories, micro product moments when the AI remembers small details + you feel seen. - Team is now 2 founders, 2 engineers, AI QA + day-one consultant. Oh, and a baby was born yesterday! - Inbound pilots from a top 10 tech company, top 3 ad network, top 3 bank. - Great investor convos at Web Summit + SF.
