a thing I like about bootstrap builders is I always feel like I'm talking to a person

with some vc-backed founders I feel like I'm talking to a carefully crafted narrative

often the 4th wall breaks when you tell them something and they say "oh that really resonates, I should start pitching this more like..." - like dude I'm trying to have a conversation with *you*, is there anyone actually there?

I broke my back lifting moloch to heaven. ntik.me

Is there a channel for bootstrap builders (i.e. indiehackers equivalent) here?
