Show HN: I built FoundersWall where builders pin chaos instead of chasing likes

https://founderswall.com
2•harvansh•8mo ago
I used to be just a blogger.

Now I build internet products, still without code, using AI, design, and taste.

I was building in public on X for last 2 months.

And honestly, I got tired of how it became performative and started to feel fake.

I shipped 2 products. Both failed to get any real traction.

I kept sneaking into popular builders’ profiles, hoping to learn how they do it.

One thing I kept seeing everywhere, product launch directories. I thought here is the scope. So I started building one. Same UI like the rest. Nothing special.

Suddenly one day when it was half built, I realized builders like me were just dropping launch links in comment sections like

> “Drop your link, what you're working on below” People would say cool or awesome idea and disappear. It felt hollow.

That’s when I knew I had to make something different. Something for all of us shouting into the void, hoping someone actually sees what we’re building. So I built FoundersWall.com a weird raw space where indie hackers pin what they’re actually building.

So I built FoundersWall.com - a weird, raw public wall for indie hackers.

Each underdog builder gets their own timeline to pin whatever they’re working on feature drops, rewrites, rants, even dead projects. No feed. No likes. No algorithm. Just you, showing up.

The design leans into chaos sticky notes, scribbles, colors, because real shipping isn’t clean, and that’s the point.

Today, I added 'Launch Alliance' You pin your upcoming launch and get support from others. In return, you support someone else when they launch. No hype loops. Just mutual visibility between builders.

It’s slowly gaining traction among early builders. Would love to hear what you think, especially if you've felt the same frustration with build-in-public culture.

Hey HN I’m not a dev. I came from writing, picked up AI tools, and just kept building things until I landed here.

FoundersWall came from a simple feeling, I was tired of pretending to build for attention. I wanted to build for real, with others, in public without putting on a show.

So I built the kind of space I needed. One that feels raw, loud, imperfect like how real indie building actually is.

If you’re building and feel like nobody sees you. I hope this makes you feel seen.

Would love your feedback. On the idea, the vibe, or even just how it made you feel.

That’s such a cool concept! Love the idea of celebrating the messy, behind-the-scenes journey instead of the polished highlight reel. Builders need more spaces like this. Very good job Harvansh!

Thanks man, appreciate the motivation. If u are a builder would love to see u on the wall.
