What it does
Forums for every topic, hobby, profession and city.
Using it to validate
Search the problem, not the product. Read how people describe it, what they have tried and what they pay. Local subreddits are the quickest way to hear what a city's residents think of the existing providers. Ask questions as a researcher, never as a seller.
Pricing
Free.
Who it suits
Every founder, especially for the problem-severity dimension.
