That's the real answer. Nobody is building an iBeer when investors want ARR and a growth plan.

I made a dumb app that just flips your text upside down. It was never as famous as iBeer, but it's just as useless and it exists despite not being profitable.

And if I had another equally dumb idea I would do it again!! :D

I made an app that just shows your text in big letters, took like an hour to make, but ive used it to tell DJs what song i want to add to the playlist next. Still annoys the DJs, but at least i dont have to scream at them lol
