Hey r/founder,

I've been solo-building Nexsap for 3 months — a social commerce platform where people post and share products like they would on social media, but focused on selling.

Think of it like a social feed, but every post is a marketing opportunity.

Sellers share their products naturally, buyers discover them while scrolling.

It's completely free for everyone.

My question to you:

What would actually push you to try a new platform like this as a seller or buyer?

What do current platforms get wrong?

Would love brutal honest feedback from fellow founders

Salut tout le monde

J'ai 14 ans et je construis actuellement

https://nexsap.com

Au lieu de payer 100 $ ou plus pour des pub, tu postes

ton produit, service ou projet gratuitement

et les gens le découvrent de manière organique.

Soyons honnêtes — la plupart des pubs payantes sont nulles

et ne fonctionnent même pas la moitié du temps.

J'en suis à 300 visiteurs en ce moment, j'essaie de

atteindre 1000.

Pourquoi ne pas essayer quelque chose de gratuit ? Laisse ton

projet sur nexsap.com et voyons

Hey! I'm 14 and built NexSap - a social commerce platform where you can buy and discover products through community posts.

Stats:

• 300+ users
• next,js/Firebase
• Live on nexsap.com + Google Play
• Solo dev - (I built this with help from online resources, AI tools, and the developer community. Not everything is 100% original code, but I understand every line and made it all work together.)

I need help with:

• User acquisition strategies
• Marketing channels that work
• How to grow from 300 to 3,000+ users

Any advice? What would make YOU actually use a platform like this?

hey everyone

im 14 and self taught in flutter and firebase. spent months building nexsap.com which is basically a social platform for product discovery

the coding part went fine but now im completely lost on the marketing and growth side

getting some traffic but 0% retention and i have no idea how to fix that. feels like i know how to build everything but not how to make people actually use it

for other self taught devs here - how did you learn the non-coding parts of building a product? like marketing user retention analytics etc

or should i just focus on getting better at coding first and worry about that stuff later?

any advice would help. coding is fun but feels like its only half of what i need to know

thanks
