I'm in a similar boat. What I'm working on is publisher tooling, so I've been reaching out to indie creators. I've been asking for interviews for product market fit. Everybody who accepted an interview asked to be a part of the beta but correspondence is slow because most people are busy doing other things at the moment, and what I'm doing is a pretty integral change to their workflow so conversion costs may be high.

Can you be more specific about what you are trying to develop? The more devout the users can be, the easier it is to build network effects from a smaller base.

No silver bullet solution. You've gotta hit all channels and see which ones get you the best traffic. Which channels work best really depends on the type of business you're building. Just toss spaghetti on the wall and see what sticks. Then, when it does, throw more!

Thanks for asking. I feel this is a very important question and not talked a lot, especially for bootstrapped founders and solo entrepreneurs. Curious to hear as well what others think about getting traction.
