What is the problem that most irritates and consumes your time on a daily basis?

Curiosity for those who are building projects (or trying to build):

What is the most annoying or repetitive problem you face in your daily life as a builder?

(It may be something small, but it bothers you every day.)


Currently what gives me the most work is marketing.

I'm trying to better understand the behind-the-scenes of the builder's journey.

If you can share, I’d love to hear!

My biggest problem today is validating ideas organically
before investing in paid traffic. I have a notebook full of ideas that *seem* promising, but I'm stuck trying to confirm whether there's an audience willing to pay for them. I know who I want to reach, but I don't know how to reach them without spending on ads — I want organic validation first (real feedback, not just guesswork).

You are right. Trust your gut and don't pay for traffic.
Create value first. Do you have a YouTube channel ? I have been generating traffic through it, while I build in public:

For example, I made this quick tutorial to help people save money by using OpenRouter to access Gemini 2.5 pro: https://youtu.be/l7l4qO0-xU8

this has helped bring traffic to my other products

like this pSEO website, which is actually a language learning game : https://youtu.be/F1qsQIMbpMQ

To reach out to them try going on Reddit and search for the keywords one by one.
At this point, you also need to cultivate Reddit klout (points), before people start trusting you

Very interesting, I was recently thinking about going with this idea of creating content that adds value and generating traffic to my products through them.
