Launched widgets for Cirka this week 🥳 cirka.app/download

For Texta, it’s so early that lowering the barrier of entry seemed to make sense. But I agree that it might be interesting to test higher price points as well, to see how it impacts conversion.

This is a learning I’ve made myself on cirka.app. There it was better to remove the trial, and now I’m testing how it performs when locking the app completely before subscribing.

Charging the same price as a Figma seat seemed a bit steep 👀

Simply to give it a price I think is fair, and to enable as many as possible to get on board.

As the product evolves, I’ll probably adjust the price, but for now it’s more important to get a lot of users, than making a lot of money :)

Texta – Collaborative Localisation Get translations done quickly using AI, then fine-tune your message for every audience, language, and culture. Empower everyone your team to take an active role in creating a world-class product experience.

Texta.app is now 5$.
Write and translate your product to any language. Export to any platform.

I use an API for now.
You can get far with clever prompting, but eventually, self-hosting might be better 😊

3 months of nights and weekends right here 😴

Go try it out! 🥳

This also makes a lot of sense on the design side. Ideas like atomic design makes it very difficult to understand the implications of deleting something.

Helms strongest selling point is that it actually works. As opposed to App Store Connect.

Fun fact: The only reason why I bought @helm-app.bsky.social was because it was still in my Gumroad cart as I was buying a silly little font.
Clicked the purchase button without looking at the cart.

I’ve now used it 3 times in a week.

Just need to recover from this flu 🥸

Okay, wrapping this one up.
Launching within a few days 🚀

As a designer, I dont get why so many devs does not see the value in a meeting. I can present some ideas, trying to get a devs perspective, and there's no response.

Why is this? Are devs just not interested in the ideation process? Does everything have to be a Jira ticket? 😂

Found it!
Settings vs. Profile confused me a bit here 😬

I dont even get the domain part of Bluesky. Is it too late to change my domain once I set up my account?

Did a bit more work on this today 👀

Yes, I knew some basic Fusion360, so this was very familiar. Render are screenshots from Shapr3D, haven’t bought it yet 😬💸

I’ve been diving into 3D-printing recently. These modelling software are either terrible, or expensive, often both 💀
Loved using Shapr3D on iPad. Way better than Fusion360..

How do I turn my feed into an endless stream of people building cool software?
Who should I follow?

It always takes longer to wrap things up than you expect. But I'm getting closer. UX Writing and Translations, with Product Context and Tone of Voice is coming soon. 🏃
Notice how the product context is included in some of the suggestions 👀
