I missed the follow-up question when it was originally asked, but answering for future reference:

You can absolutely buy valuable domains for below $1,800. I've bought domains for hundreds of dollars and sold them for thousands. It comes down to patience, observing trends ( namebio.com is helpful to determine sale prices of different categories of domains), and a bit of luck.

If I had $1,800 to spend on domains I'd focus on .co's as they are still relatively affordable, but also popular with startups. You can also spend some money on backordering domains, but that requires a lot of patience and you wouldn't spend the money until the backorder actually goes through.

Accidental Tech Podcast (aka APT) – A weekly podcast about Apple and tech, by three developers. Besides being interested in the topics they discuss, I enjoy the hosts' personalities. It might take a while to get into because of the in-jokes, but eventually that just makes it all the more fun.

The Art of Product – A weekly catch up call of two experienced developers building their bootstrapped products. It doesn't feel like they are putting on a show, but rather you get to listen in on two people going through the ups and downs of building their companies.

The Catch Up Call – Similar to The Art of Product, this podcast is really just a catch-up call (as the name implies) of of two friends talking about what's going on in their (work) lives. What I like about this particular podcast is the hosts have quite diverse interests and experiences. They have build physical products (e.g. the Peel iPhone case), been in real state, and are always experimenting with new things.

Back to Work – I've always been a fan of Merlin Man's work. I think he has a very healthy perspective on productivity that goes further than some quick tips and hacks. Over the years they started talking more about other stuff that doesn't interest me as much such as comics, Marvel movies so I haven't been listening as consistently as I used to.

Planet Money – Another podcast I don't necessarily listen to all-the-time, but when I have 20-40 minutes to spare (often before I go to sleep) I might listen to this one. They do a great job at unpacking a money-related topic and turning it into a captivating story.

The Random Show – A mostly-video podcast by Tim Ferriss and Kevin Rose. They publish it very infrequently, but when they do it's always a lot of fun. They talk about all sorts of crazy things.

I'm subscribed to dozens more I occasionally listen to, but these are the ones I tend to listen to the moment Overcast notifies me of a new episode.

Your legal obligations depend on both where your company is based and where your customers are from, so there's no clearcut answer for everyone. For example, if you serve customers based in the EU, then you need to comply with GDRP law. I suggest reading up on that.

Some things aren't necessarily obligatory, but still advisable to protect you / your business. For example, most (online) businesses have a Terms of Service giving themselves some legal protection in case shit hits the fan. Here's WIP's: wip.chat/terms

Practically speaking though, many early-stage companies seemingly get away by not doing everything by the book since they are small and fly under the radar. You'll have to determine for yourself what's acceptable risk.

I'm not sure. I recommend reaching out to support to find out.

That said, I've been using Backblaze for years on both a laptop and desktop computer. It seems to work fine without needing to manually telling it to backup. I do occasionally tell it to pause an active backup if it's slowing down my internet and I'm on a call, etc. Generally though, it should intelligently choose its upload speed depending on available resources.

The only "downside" of Backblaze, which is true for any online backup solution, is that the initial backup can take a very very long time. Possibly weeks, depending on your upload speed and drive size.

Another vote for Overcast. It’s a great app and I want to support the developer (Marco Arment) for both pushing the market forward (many podcasting apps seems to copy his features) + fighting for independent podcasting as there’s a lot of Big Money coming to podcasting trying to monopolize the market.

I agree with these points. I have started two companies with co-founders, and a bunch just by myself.

I personally prefer the latter (solo), since I got a pretty broad skillset and can move really quick. Not having to discuss with co-founders, means I can make decisions on-the-fly.

What works best for you really depends on your personal preferences and the type of business you want to build.

I had a look at the interface, but indeed couldn't fine a way to delete a source. I only found a way to "disable" it which allows you to re-enable it later.

I suggest reaching out to support. It might be a manual process.
