And self-congratulation of indiehacker networks. Those making $10k-$20k moving to twitter though, tweets like guru now. Those making $40k+ becomes business guys who talk un-related stuff for those who are finding good content and product.

As someone who's struggling on market research right now, the current situation of these site is pretty bad, hard to get real insight.

I stopped reading IndieHackers the moment it was acquired by Stripe. It's nothing more than a marketing tool now, and the quality of the content has shifted accordingly.
