I'm Anthony, CTO of a small e-commerce company well known to international shopping enthusiasts: qwintry.com. I'm a big fan of small lifestyle SaaS products and the recurring subscription model. Since getting into indie hacking (which started towards the end of 2019), I've gained experience in building and scaling two successful SaaS products to thousands of customers, all by myself, without a team. I'm currently focusing on two projects: scrapeninja.net and oakpdf.com, and writing about my adventures and thoughts on my blog at pixeljets.com. I believe that now is a great time when a one-man team or a small group of 2-3 people can create something great. You don't have to aim to launch a rocket to Mars (i.e. raise venture capital, build a team of hundreds and aim for an IPO) to support yourself and enjoy life.

I'm a tech guy. And here's my opinion - indie hacking as a phenomenon is an amazing middle ground between working in a big company, where you often feel like a commodity, a "cog in the machine", and pursuing technical hobby projects "in a drawer". Being paid by your customers for a product you have personally created is an unforgettable feeling. An indie hacker is a machine, balancing development, customer support and finding his niche. Not everyone makes it, but if you do, it's hard to trade it for anything else.

In this chat I'd like to meet like-minded, active and interesting people who are working on their products and are focused on business and personal growth.
