Feature Request: A micro jobs section on Indie Hackers

Hi,

I was wondering if it is possible to have a "micro jobs" section on Indie Hackers? By micro jobs I mean short and quick gigs that can be completed in less than a day. It would be a great opportunity for indie hackers to make quick $50-100 bucks a day while helping fellow hackers with their projects.

What do you guys think?

    The only reason i like this site is because it DOESNT a job section, isn't it the purpose of Indiehackers?

      Well, if people can share links to their products in order to get customers, why not post gigs too?

    Hmm. We have enough of those sites. + my dev time ain’t worth $150 for the day.

    That's a great idea.

    Hi, this inspired me to build this lightweight marketplace for freelance gigs for makers. What do you think? www.indietask.com

      Why limit to Telegram only?

        My assumption is here that it is a clean way to distribute and receive requests. If a freelancer is interested he/she can follow the link in the description to find out more about the gig incl contact details.

    I am inclined to say keep it minimistic, but I am new here.

    what's wrong with fiverr.com? Or it's competitors?

    What skills do you have? or are you looking for?

      Fiverr is the low hanging fruit.

      I provide data mining, web dev and SEO services but not interested in offering them for $5 :)
