Best Alternative to Stripe

I'll start by saying this isn't a promo post. I'm not affiliated with this startup in any way.

There comes a time in the life of a founder when they must charge users. The staple service used for this is Stripe.

But what happens when Stripe isn't supported in your region? You look for alternatives!

I spent the better part of the last four weeks, checking out Stripe alternatives, some of which were great, and some, not so much.

After much deliberation, I've come to announce the best ever Stripe alternative (IMO); Dodo Payments.

It's easy to use, has great UI/UX, and you can set it up in less than 3 days, with zero to minimum hassles.

It's honestly been a breeze.

IDE Recommendations???

Hi,

I just got accepted into an accelerator where I have to build a mobile app in 45 days for a school project.

Recommend any app, webapp, IDE that I can use to get a crazy good MVP in a very short period of time (I also plan to put in not less than 20 hrs a week into this project).

So, lay your recs in the comments, thank youuuuuuuu.

Vulnerability as a service???

From the image below, it seems vibe coders have a long way to go before they can actually make safe and secure products.

"Even products from top devs get hacked too," yes, but they usually do know how to go around it.

The best way to prevent getting hacked include:

1. Familiarising yourself with the workings of your framework, programming language, libraries, etc.

2. Always use HTTPS everywhere!

3. Always hash passwords!

4. Use env. variables for api keys, passwords, client IDs.

5. Make sure you run your logs, so you can use them for forensic investigations if a security breach happens.

6. Use prompts such as 'Undertake a full review of any risks associated with exposing personal identifiable information to a malicious actor. Investigate, explain, resolve.' while vibe coding.

Please feel free to add any other pieces of advice.

Need Advice

So, I'm building a Saas to help content creators and developers create content with AI, and I'm searching for text-to-image ai generators I can integrate into the site as a thumbnail generator.

I need a text-to-image genAI api that has a free tier, is affordable, and is great at generating pictures. Any suggestions?

Also, I've been trying to add a product, but when I try to upload I get an error message. Help!
