A blogger with 33k indie hacking/SaaS followers is selling her X pinned slot: $1,000 gets your app pinned for a full month, one slot only. She admits fear of copycats keeps her from promoting her own apps. The quoter mocks the offer as paying to get your app copied — a window into indie dev monetization and the publicity-vs-plagiarism dilemma.
