Original Reddit post

So I’ve been building a desktop app for the past few months and I’m at the point where it basically works. Cool. Now what? Everyone says “talk to users” and “get feedback” but like… how?? I posted it on a few places, got some likes, zero actual feedback. Asked friends and family, they said “looks nice” which tells me nothing. i tried diffrent subreddits but post got removed becouse they said it was “promoting” even thout i didnt even mentioned my app just tried to get users to tell me what the pain points they have and if they whuld use an app like this I feel like there’s this huge gap between “I built a thing” and “I know if anyone actually wants this thing.” All the testing tools out there are made for big companies with budgets. How do you deal with this? do you feel the same way? Genuinely curious because I’m stuck. submitted by /u/Affectionate-Drag473
