EmilBruckner··on How to Build SaaS as Quick as Possible
I always spend soo much time choosing a tech stack when starting a new project, that I wondered whether there could be a completely different approach to building (web) apps. How can one use pre-existing code in order to save as much time as possible?

Always glad to hear your comments and how you go about this task of deciding how to build apps.

If you match the pricing almost 1:1 / don't really make a profit, why don't you open-source it? Or do you actually make quite some profit by people who pay but don't really use their credits?

Just being curious about your plans

Thanks :) Glad to help
EmilBruckner··on Show HN: Votre (Beta) – A diary to manage your friends and family
Interesting question, thanks for seeking discussion

You're right, writing helps memory

The thing I tried to accomplish with Votre is a tool that allows you to keep your data in whichever form you want. If it were just about keeping birthdates, use some sort of database like your contacts.

You can also treat Votre like a personal knowledge base without thinking in terms of a diary.

I just wanted something that doesn't feel like a database, where I could just start writing to add information, instead of adding a field to some entry. The diary aspect also helps with building a habit in my opinion.

Building a habit of adding information is probably the most important part of having some external brain / knowledge base, as that is the only way to ensure you can trust your system.

Thanks for signing up!

Keep in mind that you don't have to write every day and that you can write whatever you want. Don't like sentences? Don't write any …

I'll send you an email once Votre launches ;-)

Here's a bit more text:

Votre is a people-oriented diary or journal. You can write an entry a day and mention people in your text. Votre then organizes your writing and lets you retrieve information about any person. It's like a CRM, but for keeping people, not numbers. Text is the only input and output. No social sharing.
