Can offer help with: Coding/JS/CSS.
Could use with help with: finding customers, building an audience 😅
Truly excellent execution, can't really roast it. I don't use shopify, but id be asking myself about what the alternatives are.
One thing I can say (and it was hard to find such a thing):
The first gif is too small to be read on mobile. I would consider cropping it on mobile to just show the right 50% of the video, zoomed in.
Appreciate it David!
A comparison / alternatives table is on the list! Thanks for reinforcing it 👍
I like the crop idea (similar to Notion?). I've added a fullscreen button for now.. But I'll consider a mobile optimised version later down the track 🙂
Gotcha! I saw the upside of using percentages to promote smaller players - curious to see whether those dominate or whether its a balance or some sort of minimum follow cliff is needed or some sort of 'big leagues' 'small leagues' split is needed. Guess we will find out. I meant an absolute figure as an addition to the percentage - 50% means a lot more if its thousands of people rather than 2 and I thought that might be additional impressiveness, although im not sure what your goal is with the site. Is it great product discovery for consumers or promotion for products focused? (or both)
Yeah, the idea of the percentage is to give newcomers a leg up. In the end, the site is more geared towards new projects with a small following. Wouldn't expect the established projects to list themselves, they have more important stuff to do :) But, would be cool if some of the small projects will become big! Would be nice to know and share what their strategy was and maybe could do some interviews in the future.
Currently, I have some really small projects (2 followers) and I am going to create a 50 followers cliff/threshold. I already notice that going from one to two is 100% growth (see today) and that isn't really useful and fair to others. Will fix this tomorrow.
Started to redesign the page with your comments. Stil WIP but happy to add the graphs on the homepage. Will have a hover which shows the graph + percentage growth. Have to play a bit with this.
Love the confetti! I'm a bit confused what the percentage means and the up caret is probably less clear than a +. I'm not sure what total community means either. Over what period is that percentage? The 8 decimal point accuracy of the percentage doesnt seem relevant to me and feels like noise. I think number of community members added is probably more meaningful as an added figure. Looks great, love the idea of crowns, keep up the great work!
Thanks David, I think you hit the hammer on the head. The percentages are daily growth, but very unclear. I could show the growth in numbers, but that would only benefit projects with already a lot of followers. The idea is to promote smaller projects. So 10 followers + 5 is 50% growth. I am going to fix the percentages and show will change community to followers. Great feedback, thanks again!

I have some technical limitations I've become aware of and am trying to fix first 😅
Here is a motivational speech just for you. Good luck

Great suggestions! Could you elaborate on what you mean by how does it work? Do you mean technically or setup or something else?
Thanks Jankees :)
Technical... setup is clear from the video..👍
Im still working on some of mine but they are roughly
I'm still figuring out how to fit a daily habit of of working on a side project (Project 2K/P2K) though, it feels like I don't have enough time with everything else I've prioritized
Wow that's a lot! I like the anti-goals. I should define some of those myself.
thanks sometimes its easier to focus on what not to do!
