Found a simple bug on the "What will subscribers pay to access your Discord?" input. Even if you select £ it stays as $ in the input. Nice job with the new launch ♥

[@lesedi44]

I'm calling it. Jacob is moving to San Francisco!!

[@tysoncodes]

Wouldn't it make more sense to move to LA? More influencers there ... his customer base right?

[@shreyas0924]

YC24? maybe

[@brianruizy]

congrats on the launch! Love how transparent you've been about the whole process ‼

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Thanks bro! Appreciate it

[@brianruizy]

@@JacobSucksAtCode a nice detail would be to see how many members the server has already 🤔

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

@@brianruizy on the way for sure! Just had to get this MVP launched 😂

[@brianruizy]

@@JacobSucksAtCode way ahead of me haha!!

Jacob, congratz with launch! It's pleasure to see the result of 4-5 weeks of building❤

[@praveenkumarsuthar9673]

Congrats Jacob on the launch!! It was a very amazing journey for you and also for me to follow. Lot's of learnings. BTW just a minor thing I noticed on the page is that when u put a price of 0 the value it shows is $NaN/month. Congrats again Jacob!

[@SaaSLTDDeals]

Wow, the journey from Discord launch to MVP is truly inspiring! Focusing on building a community of like-minded creators is key. Excited to see your growth!

[@LukeMadeIt]

huge congrats on the launch man! the hard work will pay of 10 fold 💥

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Thanks dude!!

[@tejasangadi9]

Hey Hi Jacob, I just checked your website. I love the dark theme UI and the animations. Looking from your coding journey as a self taught you have come a long way. Keep up the good work and these videos motivate me to build my own startup one day ❤

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Yooo thanks!!

[@viaosmosis2]

Congrats Jacob! Landing page looks sick

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Appreciate it!

[@vikscn]

Congratulations, buddy! Keep up the great work! btw, what's that place of your work? Thanks

Noooo, now I gotta watch from day one to fully grasp the process. Congrats on the launch !!!

[@starigeri]

This was such a sick journey to live with you! Can't wait to see how you will develop and upgrade subb🙌🎉

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Thanks dude! Really appreciate it!

[@abdullahnaim10]

Interested to see where this goes. Subbed!

CONGRATS ON THE LAUNCH JACOB!!!!! 🚀🚀🚀

crazy what you have been building there.

[@toddmason1195]

Lets goooooo!!!! Congrats on your startup launch 🚀

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Appreciate it!!

[@joshr96]

Congrats! No sure yet if I will launch a community but will grab a slug for now 👍 One tiny thing I noticed right away is the community page still shows up / has the "setup" payment banner for anyone viewing it. I'm guessing the payment flow will just not work if someone tried using. Might be worth just showing a "coming soon" button / message until its configured.

[@iradufashaBikri]

That product is awesome, good job Jacob!

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Thanks!

[@sametozkale]

Congrats Jacob 🚀

[@brandon6490]

Publishing my React Native app complete with an API inside Laravel next week. Been following you for a few weeks now, it's been a ride. Good to see you releasing too!

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Yoooooo let’s go!

[@ckubes3389]

Yeah...love your work bro....keep up the good work....Hope you become extremely successful and maybe we meet someday...

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Maybe one day!

[@sushicommander]

Congrats on the launch. What's the workflow for your deployment? ... that would be super interesting to know. I'm always curious about the deployment side of things. I'm no good with that lol.

[@jakeoverflow]

The pill animation on the landing page is gorgeous!

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Ayo thanks!

[@AugustoKalahary]

Yooooo congrats on the launch! I'm now a member of Jacob's Dev Club haha

Let’s gooooooooo dude!!

[@paulaganbi5236]

Hey Jacob, big fan of your content here. Congrats on the launch by the way . I have a request: apart from your dev skills, your content creating skills are actually sick as well 👌🏾 would you mind doing a class on how to create content too? Seriously lol. I actually admire how you know how to work the camera.

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Thanks for the idea!

[@daniellaerachannel]

To the Moooon 🚀 bro!

[@Ismael-hs]

Cool haircut dude , keep going i love you content even i’m not into developing stuff

[@yagooliveira5584]

Hey Jacob you're my favorite co-worker. I always watch your videos while coding!

[@upr4k]

congrats! would you be more specific about scaling your backend? are you using clustering? do you have any recommendations for nest.js scaling to handle good amount of requests?

[@blackflash27]

Lets go Jacob! I have plans to start a paid community later down the line so I just went ahead and claimed my subbb username!

[@MattKage0x]

That's how every product's launch is supposed to be. Messy and filled with unexpected surprises. Happy production day! 🎉

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Haha thanks!

[@CraigJeo-mh4bt]

Takes a while to load up, possibly need to wrap fetch in suspense on the homepage.

[@jkrnz]

Congrats on the launch Jacob! 🎉 Also when you said environment change the first place that came to my mind is San Francisco 👀

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Yoooo thanks!

[@juicefw1051]

try entering a really large number in the "at a price of" field. It will get out of box, then it will show infinity and then it will show NaN.

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Yep that's an MVP for you hahah

Jacob eu penso que vais ficar Milionário 🚀👏🏾👏🏾 os meus parabéns ❤

[@benjaminmilian1992]

Jacob, do you recommend any ways to learn how to dev and launch a product? I've been deving for 4 years but have never done the full production only backend development.

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Links in the description!

[@russoangelo]

Congrats Jacob, I would like to ask you why there is no payment with paypal

[@DellmantHD]

Can You describe in the next video where you host everything and what you're using for analitics etc?

LET'S GOOOOOOO 🔥🔥🔥

[@loubloom337]

Yoooo sick!

[@pulpml]

I thought u were launching Repobear lol , Congrats!

[@iFastee]

Jacob I have a question that I think is pertinent: - Besides the app stuff, how do you deal (or do you even have to deal with that?) with the legal part of the project, meaning what's the user protection like? So, for example let's say I access and pay for a creator's discord, he just blatantly scams me and doesn't provide what he initially.proposed? Is that something that you also have to think about (legal surroundings of the project)?

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Honestly haven’t figured that thing out yet. But tbh I’d just make it right with the customer and do the best I can ❤️

[@tmakombe]

Sillicon Valley Jacob here we gooo!!!!

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Hahahaha

[@TheRealMxnny]

where this workplace so cool!

[@Simone-uu8ne]

Hi Jacob! One quick thing I noticed and that could save the whole project and company: make sure to add the "Accept cookie" and "Personalise the saved cookie" (if any) banner on your platform. This is to make subbb GDPR compliant, which is pretty much mandatory if you ever plan to have customers in the EU/EEC or you use technologies that are hosted in the EU/EEC.

[@Simone-uu8ne]

You can learn more about it online. Just make sure to be GDPR compliant since it can be a pain the in back if anyone has issues with that sort of things. :))

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Got it! Appreciate that

Faster to setup, fully themeable, cheaper and not a crypto marketplace haha
