Q:A serverless API platform that serves Nepali jokes with enterprise-grade infrastructure—complete with authentication, CI/CD pipelines, analytics, and ...
The Roast
"You've built a enterprise-grade AWS infrastructure blueprint to deliver jokes that are free on 47 other platforms—congrats, you've engineered a $500/month hobby that will never break even. The tech stack is impressive; the business model is a participation trophy."

đź’€ Why This Fails
- • Jokes are pure commodity content—zero switching costs, infinite free alternatives
- • Monetization path unclear: ads pay pennies, subscriptions flop for free content
- • You'll spend 6 months on DevOps/SEO/marketing earning $0 before abandoning it
âś… The Pivot
Flip this into **'Nepali Cultural Explainer' video essays or meme templates tailored for diaspora communities**—use your infra skills to build a creator toolkit instead. Sell templates, courses, or sponsorships to travel/language brands targeting the Nepali audience (underserved, high intent). Keep the jokes as a free funnel.
