🎢 Showesome Screen Recorder: Growing in Just 2 Days

I wanted to share a small but exciting milestone for Showesome Screen Recorder!

Over the last 2 days, the number of users grew from 19 to 59. Not huge by some standards, but for a solo project that’s still pretty encouraging.

Here’s what I learned:

• Constantly iterating and pushing updates seems to keep things interesting for early users.

• Sharing the tool in communities like IndieHackers, Reddit, Product Hunt, and X really drives early traction.

• Clear messaging around privacy, simplicity, and “no signup walls” makes a difference — users notice and trust the extension more.

It’s a small milestone, but it feels motivating. Every new user is someone trying the tool and giving feedback, and that’s invaluable as I continue to iterate.

Would love to hear how other solo devs approach early user growth for extensions or micro-tools!
