@karthikponna19 What alternative do you recommend? Google Maps has saved my life a lot of times. I've tried multiple FOSS alternatives and none comes EVEN close to Google Maps
@asaio87 "I'll die on this hill, but people have always paid for convenience.

Exactly this, very well said. It's the exact point those who mindlessly repeat "SaaS is dead" are completely missing.
SaaS is dead.
Why pay $45/month when Claude Code can build you anything for $200/month?
Except there's an issue.....
Most people don’t want to spend their evenings or work ours prompting AI, debugging edge cases, and figuring out why the payment process is broken again.
I'll die on this hill, but people have always paid for convenience.
They want to open an app and have it work.
The best apps look simple.
The backend is anything but.
That gap — between what users see and what actually runs underneath — is where all the work lives.
SaaS is dead. Of course, for those who want to engage in bait.
@isumitallup I really mean this: thanks a LOT for posting this. I'm a noob in this and I'm sooo intimidated when I see many people on X being great, meanwhile I'm... just getting started 🤣. Thanks a lot, this helped me feel better and realize I'm not that garbage... 🥹
X is the worst place to judge how far ahead you are.
You're comparing yourself to the top 1% of the top 1%.
People who:
• Live online
• Post daily without fail
• And have been doing this for years
Step outside.
Go talk to your neighbor about AI.
About building a personal brand.
About making money online.
Dude will look at you like you just explained cold fusion.
You're not behind.
You're surrounded by overachievers and somehow convinced yourself you're the slow one.
