More people NEED this sentiment.

I kid you not, the last time I accidentally visited Product Hunt there was literally an app on the front page intended for the sole purpose of "mapping where you've cried". This type of Indie Hackers (as much as it saddens me to say) hype noise is nothing but counter-productive to "helping" side project hackers or aspiring founders.

Maybe this app currently doing very well on the iOS App Store will cheer you up? ;-) https://apps.apple.com/us/app/poop-map-pin-and-track/id13032...
