In plain words

Really Simple Support is a helpdesk platform designed for indie hackers who need customer support functionality without complexity. Launched in 2022, it provides basic ticketing and support management tools tailored for small teams and solo developers. The platform streamlines customer inquiries and responses, offering a straightforward alternative to more elaborate support systems that may include unnecessary features for independent builders.

From the sources

Really simple support is "really simple" support / Helpdesk tool aimed squarely at the Indie Hacker, Bootstrapper and Maker community. I built this because over the past year I tried all the big names, and they either sucked, or were comedically expensive.

There's also been many new launch platforms coming up, but all of them make you compete for upvotes. Ugh. So I have been working on something different: https://saascurate.com/ It's a community-driven platform where indie hackers and SaaS founders help each other grow their products. The idea is simple - list your product, engage with other founders, gain exposure and social proof. No upvote system. It's hard and…
