minus-square@Showroom7561@lemmy.calinkfedilink5•4 days ago I think it’s because marketing is expensive Perhaps I should clarify what I mean by “marketing”. I’m not talking about spending tens of thousands of Facebook ads, or any ads, really. A few screenshots on a product page would be more than enough for some projects. Highlight some key features. Generate interest. It’s really low effort stuff that makes a huge difference.
