Had my first prod issue today.

I am officially onboarded now.

Unpopular opinion:

If you are a developer, it's criminal to use a 3rd party auth.

If you want enterprise solutions like SSO, SCIM etc.. it's a good choice, otherwise choose better-auth or something similar.

You can’t fool people forever.

We are getting serious now!

Wrote my 1st post on LinkedIn today.

Start of something new.

I have never liked LinkedIn, but it has it's benefits. So going to be posting more in there.

Share your LinkedIn profile below. I will follow you if you are active there.

It's been close to a month since I joined @fashn_ai

And my first big task is to add support for teams/organizations.

Here's my suggestion to anyone starting a SaaS. Support organizations from Day 1️⃣

If you are using better-auth it's as simple as enabling organizations plugin.

I have been using Tabhive almost every single day at work.

It's coming in very handy.

I should change the positioning to organizations/teams completely and not focus on individual users.

Some people are so weird :(

Meta Explorer has crossed 10k users on the chrome web store 🥳

3 years back when I built it, I had no expectations from it. The intention was to learn how to build Chrome extensions.

This is a deeply fulfilling moment for me 🥹

I don't read a single word of Cursor's output.

I look at the code, understand it & decide to accept/reject.

Anyone else do the same?

It's tough.

If you want to make money, stay away from them.

Another 5 ⭐️ review for Meta Explorer.

RLS seems fine in the beginning, but it quickly gets out of control and you risk messing it up & end up exposing sensitive data.

You are not a real software business until you've tested your backups.

Found another post talking about Meta Explorer on LinkedIn.

Interesting to see all the different use cases suggested, which I would have never thought of.

Time to get active on LinkedIn.

We're at 9,700+ users and about to hit 10k this week 🎉

Question for you: which on-page SEO tool do you use and what would make you move to Meta Explorer?

The problem with building a product for developers is their first reaction is often "I can build that myself".

What you should look for is this reaction from your ideal customer "This solves my problem perfectly. I am ready to pay."

I think I got a winning formula in finding good ideas to build a product.

Go to Reddit and find SubReddits where there are very few developers and has decent number of members (At least 10k).

Only Google analytics has native support with the Chrome web store.

I was hesitant to add it, but it was stupid of me.

Go and enable it right now for your extensions.

Adding more languages really helped!

If you want to grow your Chrome extension, enable Google Analytics & let it run for two weeks.

Then check which countries bring the most users and add those languages.

I've been using Tabhive a lot lately while working on different things.

I mostly use it to save links for later, and the quick access with the cmd menu makes it super easy to get back to them.

Started to get traffic from ChatGPT 🔥

Another example of top-notch support

This is going to be useful

I wrote a post on how to use database transactions in Supabase 👇

Supabase doesn’t support transactions directly from the client libraries, so how do you do it?

Vibe coding works fine when the outcome isn't critical.

But when you need certainty, consistency, and correctness, it falls apart.

Dismissing it as a "skill issue" is ironic. It means vibe coding only works if you already know how to write code.

Launch going better than I expected!

Thanks to everyone who checked it out.
