Micro SaaS products - Any Tips for finding opportunities to build apps?

Finding Niche is a common advice I recieve, but once you do that,

- how do we spot the needs or find pain points for a specific usecase?

- What are various possible ways to do some research around it?

I've been indie hacking for a while and have built one or two products that haven’t gained much traction yet. I'm currently figuring out how to attract my first users, though sometimes I wonder if I’ve created products that no one needs.

Is anyone else on a similar journey?

I’m in a similar position! I’ve also been building small apps hoping to gain traction but I haven’t had much luck.I’m considering using acquire.com to just purchase an existing app that already has traction.Curious if anyone has advice here!

I know... it is frustrating at times, but it certainly is an interesting journey. I often wonder how all those successful indie hackers managed to pull it off!I'll definitely share more if I come across anything useful. Thanks for sharing your experience, and I hope your apps gain the traction they deserve.
