@byalexai Definitely! However, it's quite complex for people who work full-time while building their app since they can't advertise publicly. Which is my case... But hey, positive vibes!

I connect with my network, share updates on social media, and offer early access or special perks to those who show interest. Personal touches can make a big difference in getting support.
