Exactly. I'm making 25k month with a SaaS that was built on boring ASP.NET+SQL Server+Angular 1 because that's what I knew.
I host it on Windows because I know how to make it fast and secure.
I'm happy I focused all my time on building the features that clients were asking for, instead of learning the latest frameworks or fighting an OS I'm not familiar with.

built on boring [...] Angular 1
This is a little-known fact, but Angular 1 was actually released on the same year as FORTRAN II.
As per Wikipedia FORTRAN II appeared in 1958 [1]. Don't remember Javascript being around at that time. Am I missing something?
I was just joking, but I appreciate how carefully-worded your reply was :)
Ah, silly me :) I'm not that familiar with the history of Fortran so I thought maybe some cool Fortran reincarnation (hence II) was released a few years ago.
You're missing the joke.
Just the joke :)

At the time I started the project, there seemed to be a new article on top of HN every week telling me how Angular is bad and why I should learn React. Since I had been using Angular for a while on my day job, yes, Angular was the boring choice.

Yes - I'm doing about 33K per month on a SaaS that is just Rails/Postgres/Heroku - the only javascript is some basic JQuery.
Amateur. I make about 35k/month using only bash via CGI and some plain text files as database.

Pft. I make 42k/month using only butterflies like a real programmer.
Actually, I wonder if the creator of WWWBoard/FormMail/etc achieved that. It certainly would've been well earned. His stuff was everywhere (I used them a lot too).

Serious? or joking? :) If the former, would love to know more.

What's your product? Have you written about it?
Yeah, just to second this idea, I would like to read about it, also, though I am totally unfamiliar with the technology being used.
Is that 25k USD? :)

Doesn't it make sense to be specific with the currency you are talking about on an international forum? I realise the US is the worlds most powerful country with a very important currency, but it doesn't follow that we should always just assume that any currency spoken about is USD.
It does make sense to be specific, but I find the only people who aren't specific are usually Americans so we can assume these figures are USD.
While this forum does have people from all over the world (I'm living in London), it also is a forum headquarted by a seed accelerator based in the US.
