Do people really care about indiehackers? Only emails I receive from them are very rock-bottom bad websites created with codecanyon scripts. They are possibly paying indiehackers to expose those sites via email blast and their blogs. Not even one project from there looked good so far.
Last 30 days is kind of a bad metric for growth, especially for B2B apps where Q4 can be kind of brutal. Would be cool if they did "all time" or something more encompassing (and had other sources aside from IH).<p>FWIW I run browserless, which is on IH, and has been growing pretty steadily: <a href="https://www.indiehackers.com/product/browserless/revenue" rel="nofollow">https://www.indiehackers.com/product/browserless/revenue</a><p>EDIT: Might also be cool to see growth in terms of customer growth vs MRR
I think Indie Hackers is great but the best content you can get is the content you never got because you were too busy shipping.<p>Therefore I think that ranking and tracking what other people are shipping does nothing remotely useful. Maybe good for an entertainment, though.
This is cool but quite easy to game - all I need is a spare couple of thousand and I can jump to the top of the leaderboard by buying my own products. Of course I'll have to pay stripe's fees but it's probably quite a good ROI if my product's target market are people that read indiehackers.
Fun fact: In a round-about way you can estimate how much revenue these products are generating for Stripe if you measure the transaction fees against the reported numbers.
