It would be cool if you can provide insight into how they're making their money, how they got their start, etc. Kinda like https://boringcashcow.com/
Great idea, I plan on building a more detailed view with this kind of info, without all the clutter.
I really like the HN/Twitter/Indie Hacker posts about solo founders building a boring, simple product. It inspires me to look for an unsexy problem and come up with a simple solution. I've seen some other similar sites but wanted to make my own because I don't like annoying popups and I just want to see a list. There are no ads, no "feed algorithms", no tracking, and no AI. Just a simple list (not even paginated!). Take a look around and I'd be appreciative of your feedback!

(most are solo-founder, minimal marketing, boring solution spaces, profitable. although some have grown significantly since their humble beginnings)

Nice website, but there are quite a few businesses in there that I wouldn't categorise as boring or simple to execute/replicate.
How do people market something like this?
