haha good one, I could vibe code it while I work on my real products. I'm following the shotgun approach, I'll build 12 startups in 12 months like good old levesio did, so I'll re use the open startups component because in many projects. For my specific use case I feel like it worths it

First clue was the low views. Then X hit me with a modal, something like: "blah blah blah for our community... verify you’re human... blah blah."

Then I got the same notification on my main account. Only way out? Paying for premium. Still stuck in low engagement , but that’s on me, I barely post anymore.

Might have a screenshot on a backup drive. If I find it, I’ll upload it.

Nice. Did you notice any X shadow banning when using this programmatic approach?

I built an automation for one of my products, and out of nowhere, I got flagged as a bot and thrown into X probation. I only generated like 3 posts.

The Scrapingbee guys used to share everything, until they hit a certain MRR threshold. You can do the same. I probably will too. In my case, I have no audience, so my open dashboard is basically invisible. Zero risk I think.

Saw Pieter using Simple Analytics' open dashboard on the fly thing. If I’m not mistaken, he was inspired by Baremetrics. Some businesses are still riding the open startup wave: baremetrics.com/open-startups

Sorry I've been off for a while. Embedpolls helps you to create minimalist polls that can be used anywhere, for the moment I use it to add polls to blog posts (in Ghost) and landing pages (the embedpolls.com landing page itself)

Hey David! How is it going? I see that you have used tailwind for codebird, a very nice choice!

I just saw the audio chat announcement, I'm at work at that hour but I'll try to join the audio for at least some minutes.

Thanks for the answers. I read this last year tim.blog/2020/02/02/reasons-t… and I've been wondering what is the point where mixed work and personal life can go wrong. I guess, in the future, there'll be some products to solve that issue by creating online personas, I have seen some like rosebud.ai/ and pinscreen.com/facereplacement/. The thought of building something like that has crossed my mind a couple of times (because it's still early for that), but the learning curve is really high, for the moment I'm learning about GAN's just for fun. Do you know some makers working with computer vision tech? It is an interesting space.

I tried to edit the photo today. It has not changed yet, I'm not sure if it's going to change, maybe there is some approval to be done 😅. The original image was a Peruvian alpaca (the one with cold green background colors), the new one is an Argentinian llama (the one that has warmer colors). Well, I did a sort of short nomading mvp back in 2019 (2 months between Cusco Peru and Salta Argentina).

The alpaca: One day I was walking down the street in Cusco city and then somehow and end up in the middle of Sacsayhuamán ruins, I was a bit tired so I chill out with the alpacas (because they looked so relaxed (aspirational grade level relaxed)) for a couple of hours just contemplating life, the one in the photo is called Juan Pedro.

The llama: I was on the road to Cafayate (Argentina) but the bus took some stops. One of them was at some winery place and after some wine tasting I saw llamas outside and I was a bit surprised, anyways I took some food for llamas and went to know them, I did not find out their names tho.
