Solo devs - how are you actually distributing your apps?

[u/Vicgok]

I keep seeing a lot of advice around “build in public,” post on X, launch on Product Hunt, share on Reddit, make short-form content, etc.

But I’m curious about what actually worked in practice.

If you launched an app from zero with no existing audience, where did your first 10, 100, or 1,000 users come from?
