Time to share what I’m learning. SaaS founders are foucused heavily on X. Reddit is still massively underutilized for distribution. Less noise. More intent. Here is a list of 30 subreddits worth joining for distribution, feedback, and growth 👇 r/saas r/startups r/entrepreneur r/indiehackers r/microsaas r/sideproject r/buildinpublic r/startup_ideas r/launchmystartup r/mvplaunch r/roastmystartup r/indiebiz r/thefounders r/growmybusiness r/growthhacking r/askmarketing r/marketing r/seo r/webdev r/programming r/chrome_extensions r/productivityapps r/selfhosted r/internetisbeautiful r/testmyapp r/producthunt r/macapps r/androidapps r/iOSProgramming r/digitalnomad Reddit is not about posting your product. It’s about earning attention first.

The indie iOS dev journey (no particular order): - Ship a small utility app - Add "Indie iOS Dev" to bio - Screenshot App Store Connect revenue - Get frustrated watching competitors get featured - Post on r/iOSProgramming, get roasted, go back to lurking - Build an app template collection - Write a guide on shipping apps - Sell SwiftUI templates - Launch a course on ASO - Sell one of my apps for a few thousand - Put "acquired" in bio - Start writing weekly dev updates - Launch a podcast about building in public - Try lifetime pricing to boost downloads - Call total revenue "MRR" even though it's not recurring repeat until the exits get bigger then: Buy other indie apps and build a mini portfolio disclaimer: I've done most of these (still doing some). No SaaS yet since I'm focused on native iOS. Easy to look at someone's first $1k month as small, but we all started there if we made it further. I catch myself doing this too

My app got 2k installs on release, purely from 20 organic Reddit posts with 300k impressions. Here how to find subreddits to promote your app. All of them allow self promo, but some have additional conditions. Platform related subreddits. Usually allow self promo on certain day of the week, for active participants(make 5 unrelated posts within a week). r/iOSApps r/macapps r/MacOS r/apple r/iOSProgramming r/appledevelopers r/windowsapps r/WebApps r/WebApps r/genAIApps r/apps indie hacker, builder related apps. They usually do not exactly allow promotion. But they tolerate link to your app as long as it is related to content of post. Make about your relevant experience mentioning your app in the process. r/indiehackers r/SideProject r/scaleinpublic r/buildinpublic r/GrowthHacking r/AppStoreOptimization r/AppBusiness r/SaaS r/MobileAppDevelopers r/iOSAppsMarketing Niche subreddits. This one is unique for every single app. Finding a subreddit, specifically related to your product is like finding a gold mine. Even if they don't allow self promo, you can ask users there if they would like app with your functionality without mentioning app itself. It might give you some validation. They are usually especially enthusiastic about beta tests(for some reason open beta invites are not viewed as ads ). Paid ads are also can be extremely efficient there. For me the following subreddits worked: r/StableDiffusion r/GenAIApps r/AIArt

I suggest going to r/iOSProgramming subreddit and see how many individual developers with no relation to sideloading with apps on AppStore got terminated.. Apple went crazy in wrong directions as well

If y'all wanna feel bad about yourself, just post your mobile app on r/iosProgramming 😭 (might be a skill issue on my part)
