Neat thing. Question: Why not have it publically open and free, but pay to post? Or at least have some of it open, like a limit number of post visible or something like that - for free. Because right now, as a visitor, I'm far from sure I want to use this at all, I know too little about what it's like to actually use it.

Same here. I just spend 3 minutes trying to figure out how to opt out, but couldn't find it in the walls of texts and links down the rabbit hole. Closed the tab.

Hi! Very interesting read and congratulations on the success. How you every had a higher price tag, or have you thought about raising it? It feels like a very low price, but I don't know what the average your customers are ending up paying - I guess they most often have several users per account?

Hi, thank you! Hope it goes well :) Well, not 100% full time. I'm also working on another product together with my dev partner, which requires a little bit more work than RemoteHacker for now, so I'm basically balancing between those two projects and client work.

Thank you! Yes, I'm trying to make that happen. There is definitely a higher quality than quantity on the site right now, which I like, and people who use it seem happy, so that's nice :) Spreading the word without spending a fortune is my biggest problem to solve it seems.

Hey everyone!

My name is Eric, I’m a programmer from Sweden. I built this thing pretty much out of frustration of not finding the right people to work with, in a time when we can collaborate across borders and time zones. I don’t mean finding a job, or fixing someones email template. I mean as in being part of an actual project.

Hope you like it :)
