I notice a growing concern in the maker community (not WIP specifically, but in general) of people's work being blatantly ripped off. It makes people hesistant building in the open, sharing the revenue numbers, etc. So I had a crazy idea inspired by Twitter's new view counts. What if you could ...

I have user constantly asking me to put my app(s) on AppSumo. I don't like it as it feels like a sellout and is not sustainable but am I missing anything here? Could there actually be an advantage (for indie makers)? Marketing wise or other?

Hi! Is it okay to air suggestions about features here? Just a small thing I was thinking about Could it be nice to for example show first 5 comments on the todos home-feed with a "read all" button that expands fully like now? WIP is the social-ish media that I enjoy scrolling. Here I just becom...

Right now the Shipping Streaks incentives people to ship every day. Shipping often is a good habit, but doing so for weeks in a row without rest is unhealthy. Some people log non-work activities, but that feels like a hack and leads to spammy todos. Maybe we can redesign the streak. It should s...

Me and @nadine_bejou were discussing the idea of having a way to set and track your goals on WIP. Before we dive into the feature though, I'd like to get a better sense of how all of you are setting goals (if any?), what kind of goals, how you measure them, whether you set a deadline, etc.

What books and/or long-form articles are you reading? What do you like and dislike about them?

Hey WIP, Bad day today. My Heroku console has 1803 critical errors :( Are critical errors common? Looking at the specifics: a) I'm using 1X professional heroku dynos. Surely they can handle this level of traffic? b) I made a big mistake with images. Trying to write them to Heroku. Hopefu...

If enough people are open to this I'll add this feature to WIP. It would make it possible to see how much revenue each product is generating.

Just a thought.

Does anyone have Bluesky invites to give out? Would be more than happy to help fellow WIP members get access later on. I signed up for the waitlist half a year ago I think, but still no email from them.

Have you gotten to at least $1,000 MRR with one of your job boards? If so, I'm curious of what strategy you used to get eyeballs on the site and start making money. I think it could be interesting to make a job board for some niche I'm interested in which is why I'm asking. There are some results...

I'd love to see the streak personal record (PR) next to the name or on a user's profile. Maybe with a 🏆 emoji? It makes it more OK to lose a streak, but show off that you did ship for so many days and did a record.

I think it could help the site feel more alive if signed-in people by default opted into being added to a "seen by" list for each todo. Have it look like the likes (a string of profile photos). People could opt out at the cost of not being able to see who had seen other TODOs. TikTok does this f...

Hi 👋 You probably don't know me, but I'm a baby maker here on WIP. Started some projects, and took me some time to make my first $$$. I just wanted to share some personal recommendations, some tips I wish I had before I start my journey as a Maker : - Find a problem, not an idea - Don't spend...

Not sure how many people we have here dealing with this situation but would love to know your approach on that.  Here are some questions in my mind: How do you keep up the motivation for your side-projects? When do you work on your side-projects? Tools that help you to manage your time? etc.

When they give you something that doesn’t make sense, similar to none to what you’re doing, etc. What’s your favorite way to respond?

Swift apps, not Electron.

Currently streak emojis are 🔥 up to 99 days, and 🌶️ at 100+ I propose we introduce some new emojis as a nod of respect/appreciation 🔥 0-99 🌶️ 100-499 🚀 500-999 🐐 1000 + [Image] Maybe some other higher contrast emojis would be better
