Im working on a launching a webapp. Im super close to launching with a show hn but im super nervous about first impressions. This is the first time ive actually spoken about it online, and tbh I dont think im gonna drop the URL just yet..

If anyone has any SOTA show hn tips i'd really appreciate it.

Having just tested my app with very niche online groups, friends and cold messaging some people who I thought might have wanted what I'm building, and getting almost no response - my advice would be to burst that bubble early. As a general rule, no one cares what you're building anymore - just look at this thread.

You're right. Thanks for the kick

roleready.me if anyone does care :)

So you haven’t launched but you have 4 testimonials?

I dont think its odd to have placeholder testimonials as im developing the testimonial components. I have some real ones from IRL people and my friends and family whove used it ready to be put into the site if it matters.

But there should be some indiciation im not launched so I added a banner thanks for the nudge

No stress just was curious about the approach, I hope the launch goes well it looks like a great product

I don’t usually do testimonials personally I don’t think people actually read them, plus it’s not like you’d ever show bad ones haha
