Would love to test it then. Ultimately I'm looking for all platforms but first I would like to focus on Instagram as I have an audience there.

Sure! Will inform you once I've been approved!

No Instagram?

Yes instagram and fb are available as well. Only waiting to be approved by fb review team :)

One more thing I would add is to bring in more gamification elements. I see three types of visually appealing badges. Milestones for amount of done tasks, streaks (2, 3, 4... 10, 25, 50 to help build up a momentum) and special events (perform X tasks on day Y to get unique badge).

Yeah that is also a good one, maybe also a bounty if you miss a day. Live for me gets in the way and I lose my streak. It demotivates me to restart (maybe this is just me)

@marc could we have something that I donate/pay a fine

I've gone back and forth on this, but I think I agree we should add it. The goal of the streak isn't to literally never miss a single day. It's to keep you motivated and develop a shipping habit.

I fully understand, maybe I am the only one that has this problem so feel free to ignore it. But with becoming a dad I do have days that I simply can't complete a todo

Once I lose a streak I feel sad (as I should, the system works!) but getting motivated to build that up again can become demotivating

Maybe wip can punish me in a fun way, or just make it a microtransaction hehe

(I know I could write a quick script to cheat the system but meh)

Yes, I'll add badges. Good and fun idea!

I actually today was thinking that setting some kind of type for the entries would be cool idea opening up some more advanced statistics/achievements or filtering options. So most from your list sounds cool as an options to choose from.

What types would you like to see?

This might be something I can do with AI. (Yay! A reason to use AI)

Feature request: It would be nice to check if people are active. If someone is not active for a while, they should get a warning to start being active or their account will be removed. This is especially for those who really wanted an invitation, but then did nothing when they got it. I remember back in the day how bad I felt when this happened on Dribbble. Invitations were very wanted, and I gave two to people who did nothing. Same story as @McPizza described in another thread.

I emphasize with your frustration, but I'm not sure there's much we can do about people not using WIP. It might just not be for them and they wouldn't really know until they give it a try.

Here's what I'll do:

  1. Give out more invites. Then it should be okay if not everybody uses their account.
  2. Improve onboarding of new members. For example, by giving you, the inviter, more tools to help these new people get the most out of WIP.

But agree on removing the old inactive users.
An email notice and bye.That could help them to engage, even like something can make them active

I'm a new member, and I agree with improving onboarding!

There's a 5-step checklist, which is great, but I'd love to see a more in-depth one about creating and logging in project progress. I like your idea about the inviter helping their invitees too. I definitely feel like I've just been thrown in the deep end haha.

I think the best way is actually to dive in and see how others are using it.

Perhaps we should have a better way of finding makers to follow (based on your personal interests, time zone, etc). So you get better examples.

I’ll also give some thought to your idea of having more of a guide. If you any suggestions or questions you’d like to see answered, please let me know!

Making it easy to find other similar (active) makers is a great idea!

I've noticed I've naturally just found people I vibe with over the last few days, but I've made an intentional effort to be part of the community instead of just passively sharing updates.

Are there any specific “filters” you’d like to see to find relevant members?

Anything you’d like to know about them, that’s not currently visible in the profiles, before reaching out?

And finally, how do you prefer to reach out? I’ve been considering adding a direct message system to WIP

I personally have no experience with Mailerlite but I met several happy users.

Thanks Szymon. I'll check mailerlite then :)

Something’s strange with the headings. It looks like same text multiplied couple of times and moved horizontally tiny bit.

Would love to test it.

I am still developing it. This blew up in a subreddit so I quickly created a landing page to collect emails of those interested... Please go here to do that keywordranking.me/
