THA video claims indie hacking is a scam because only 2% of people on ShipFast make $10k/mo, so they argue selling courses is the better path. But that stat is based on opt-in, self-reported data, which means it's heavily affected by selection bias. It also completely ignores how long people have been working on their projects.
To get a real picture, you'd need to track cohorts over time, not just look at a single snapshot. Indie hacking is genuinely hard work. The key is focusing on your monthly progress rather than comparing yourself to others.
The real question you should be asking: is your bottleneck in product development or marketing?
