Good templates, easy to edit, can have a decent landing page up in a few minutes.

I know, Tom needs to raise his rates.

Hi Will!

Also struggle with 'perfectionism' here. Trying to ship even just a small thing every day has been helpful for me.

I've also been nomading around the US for the past 6 months! How has bringing your dog along for the ride been? I imagine challenging 😅

Thanks for taking the time to read and reply!

On the article — yes I think you're right about the "on/off the record" analogy not being useful enough. May try describing it differently all together. And yes, outline pain points and solution is a good thing for me to work on :)

On the product — There's a few tools that range from open source (gist.github.com/robinsloan/36…), to free (tweetdelete.net) to rather expensive (tweetdeleter.com).

I just figured I'd make a simpler (and more opinionated) product that can be fully set up in 2 clicks and is neither free nor expensive.

Boooo.... looks like DNS issues. To the best of your knowledge, is it still happening?

My bet is that virtually all of your tweets are useless after 24 hours.

Twitter's homepage (when logged out) advertises "Happening now", and Dan Rowden of ilo recently tweeted that after 24 hours Twitter stops surfacing every tweet, regardless of how popular it is.

Twitter is a chat room and all chats have some sort of context. Old tweets that get surfaced don't usually get surfaced with all the context of the time.

It's also really hard to know today what will be politically incorrect 5 years from now.

With that said, I'd consider the opposite approach. Pick keywords that you want to keep on the record (like for you it may be #buildinpublic, or something like that) and delete the rest.

I'm happy to announce I'm the first follower of the covert twitter account :)

Welcome Nasser! Looking forward to see what you ship!

Also a big Ruby on Rails fan here. Happy to help any way I can.

Oh that would have been good to mention in the intro.

I'm currently building a tiny app (one may call it a "micro-SaaS") that's sole goal is to delete old tweets off of twitter.

I call it Tweet Sweeper — tweetsweeper.app

The core features are built, and I have a small handful of paying customers (about $100 ARR), but no where near profitable yet.

My main goal is to get better at product positioning and learning different marketing channels. I'd love to build a handful of apps to replace freelance and consulting work.
