kind of building a thing again. spent weeks manually updating 47 email signatures at my last job. never again. building something so you don't have to.

off to #DMEXCO in cologne for a couple of days.

bit quiet the last few days. polishing up the last few things before launch, but super unhappy with the onboarding flow and can't seem to find really good examples to draw inspiration from. any pointers? #buildinpublic #solopreneur #indiehacker

not sure why i ever hesitated with next.js. building stuff is genuinely fun. project 3 and 4 already in the works 🚀 #solopreneur #buildinpublic

honest question to all #solopreneurs and #indiehackers that actually launched a product: how do you monitor and mitigate security related bugs in your code? #security #monitoring #productlaunch #buildinpublic

low key freaking out rn. have two ideas, both minimal possibility to actually print, but excited to build them anyway. what to focus on first? #founderproblems #sidehustle #buildinpublic #decisions

build in public means your most honest release notes ever: ‘fixed some stuff... probably broke other stuff. send feedback or curses’ 😂 #buildinpublic

morning coffee powered brainstorm: which core metrics actually matter? spending too long debating whether clarity or trust drives conversions harder. #buildinpublic #startupthoughts

build in public is 10% coding, 90% pretending you totally knew what you were doing while a whole 7 people watches you figure it out 🔥 #buildinpublic

trying to keep it simple but impactful... easier said than done. UX ain't that easy sometimes. #buildinpublic #uxstruggles

that moment when your ‘simple MVP’ turns into a full-on frankenstein monster but you’re too deep to turn back now #pivotsquad #buildinpublic #tgif

Short trip to #Paris. First day back in the city… and I've never seen so many fentanyl-addicted "zombies" in the metro of any European capital. Haven't been in a few years, but it's genuinely shocking, especially with kids around.

5am club was so yesterday. it's 4am club from now on.

Currently vibe coding an idea I have: what's the current sota way to initialize a fresh next.js project? Manually creating a plan or outline concept and promoting something like: "ingest the next.js boilerplate and read outline.txt for context?" How do you start? #buildinpublic

aaaaaand even more progress. still a ton left to implement, but it's getting there ✌️

Huge progress 🔥

The algorithm isn't unfair.
You're just speaking the wrong language.

Format ≠ fluff
Hooks ≠ hype
Emotion ≠ guesswork

Virality is built.

I'm building a tool that decodes the signals, so your next post hits harder.

#buildinpublic

Quietly building a content analyzer that scores posts across 16 virality signals, then rewrites them to hit harder.

Original, baseline, optimized.
What changed, why it changed, and how.

Still early, but it's 🔥 - Screenshot 👇

DM if you're curious.

I need your LinkedIn post link for it to work ;) drop it here, I'll comment on linkedin with results

@starterstory.com this might be interesting 🎉

Comment with your LinkedIn post URL. I'll run the analysis and comment with results. Depending on volume and time, I'll try to run as many as I can.

Most LinkedIn posts flop. I got tired of guessing.

Built an app that predicts performance before you post. Testers call it unfair. Results have been 🔥

Bootstrapped, raw, but scary accurate.

Drop your LinkedIn post link. I'll share results in comments.

Built something powerful for LinkedIn. Dropping an early alpha next week... just for a select few. Want in? DM me.

day X of building a no-bs email signature management platform.

not gonna lie. i haven't done much. but i did start a completely new project that - in my eyes - is even more sexy. launching very very soon!

then back to email signatures.

day 10+11 of building a no-bs email signature management platform. i'll be honest. almost no progression made here. wanted to ditch mogodb for postgresql, but that was a dud. performance + ease of use and implementation was just not fit for my use case. back to mogodb then.

day 8+9 of building a no-bs email signature management platform. day 8 was less coding than usual. spent the day at the hospital (i'm ok). day 9 doing a break on emails and will do a little side project instead. stay tuned for info on it. bonus today: a picture of my cat.

i can see the finish line! just a couple tweaks here, and bug fixes there and the product is ready to ship.

day 7 of building a no-bs email signature management platform. dashboard = done. recent activity = done. groups = done. signatures = done. redirects = done. image storage = done. working in templates next.
