reasons i'm making moves to live in (Bangkok) Thailand
my last 3 weeks have been a movie, and reminder what life could be like in SEA
> unmatched lifestyle
> top tier food
> vibrant digital nomad / builder community
> (relatively) cheap
> the weather
> everyone is super nice
really excited about founder communities in 2026.
finding a community as a founder is underrated, especially for indie hackers and solo builders.
there’s a lot to gain. founder communities are diverse, some focusing on an industry and others on a founder type, all aiming to support their members.
as a founder, what would make you choose one community over another?
i love the rejuvenated energy around vibe coding
i think its everything
but some ya'll mfers on here larping
if you're really building and that, respect
The biggest reason people crash out of vibe coding is because they never learn to debug.
This is what you gotta do:
> Read logs: console, edge, errors (pls do this)
> Ask in the vibe coding tool’s chat
> Check API/integration docs
> Paste errors into an AI and talk it through
if you’re an indie hacker, digital nomad, or founder on the go
you need to download nomadtable
it’s not my app, it’s actually just a great app and i wanted to share
i’ve been using it while i’m in Thailand
and i’ve been able to meet so many cool people and builders, check out different events, and explore a lot more
i'm actually jealous of the way nomadtable’s users talk about NomadTable to people who aren’t on it yet
if you’re building something, how NomadTable users talk about NomadTable is how you want your users to be talking about your app
You probably can't escape all the vibe coding posts.
Don't fight it. Embrace it.
If you want to be a builder in 2026, do this:
1. Come up with an idea
2. Vibe code the MVP
3. Build in public
3. Distribute. Distribute. Distribute.
The upgrade after: becoming a founder.
