Looks like an exact copy of shipfa.st

Hi Sohails,

Have you actually read the copy and learned about how the product works? Apart from the funnel like website layout the two products share little to nothing. Not even the tech stack.

If you have any questions regarding the product you can ask them here or get a hold of me on twitter (username: @fasternode_).

Shipfast is a next.js boilerplate, mine is a Node.js/express boilerplate. If you compare the tech stack and the way the two products are built you'll realise they couldn't be more different.
Are you using two accounts? What's yours in this context? This was posted by rahimrezgui, or are you the same user? (which is frowned upon here)

Hi, I use one account from my phone and one from my laptop. Didn't know it was frowned upon. I don't upvote my own post if that's what you were implying!

Why not make it open source if it bothers you?

Obviously I won't at least not for now. As for you showing me an older post I'd just ask if you ever tried to cheat some algorithm before?
No, I don't need to cheat algorithms to sell my stuff. Not sure why would you do that unless you're selling a scam.
Why would anyone choose to sell a node.js boilerplate as a scam? Sounds kinda twisted to me, as if you had to find a fault of some sort. I tried to follow advice from people who i thought successful on HN or so they claimed, I'm still trying my way around on the platform I'm just wondering if you are going to encourage me or just try to take me down?
Okay, I understand. What do you mean by business partners? Did I mis something?
Not saying that your thing is a scam. I meant that I don't see a reason to do it unless you're selling a scam.

What "successful" people told you to astroturf? Don't believe that bullshit. It's an instant red flag on any platform. How can I trust you as a business partner if you're okay with doing that?
