Indie developer gefei55 shared an experiment: during China's National Day holiday he ran an online building session with his community. His brand-new site, live for only 6 days, has already earned $3,666 with zero traffic costs, with revenue publicly verifiable.
He also complains that the "success screenshot" format has been so overused by WeChat resellers that audiences are now cynical, even though his community members genuinely keep posting real results.
