@athcanft Gratitude only Genuine gratitude For the fuckers and the snakes It’s the cheat code for ultimate unending inflow Enlightened self interest Gratitude sandwich your day

one of the most valuable skills i’ve learned in life is the ability to turn jealousy / envy into motivation we are practically born with a victim mindset, small and defenseless, with only the world to blame once you learn to overcome that, you will start to see the world with much brighter colors

@PaulSolt What do you UI testing? I use codex

Codex has created the best UI testing I've ever seen in an macOS app. I don't think I could have done this myself... ... I had 8 years to try, and never made something so exhaustive.

@athcanft @_frederickjames Best thing u can do is live near a hospital don’t drive yourself in They can save you in the ambulance you will get a bill in the mail Stop smoking being fat and eating trash

@_frederickjames app for detecting heart attacks

my elderly neighbour just had a heart attack. he's seems to be okay. ambulance came and took him away. it's made me feel a great sense of urgency. seize the day, friends.

@nicktheriot_ I know you said 10 here but is it realistic to have 10 additional winning ads off one pain point?

@nicktheriot_ 🔥Nick do you bank on more than one variation working on a top pain point? How many should be the goal in a healthy account?

Stop thinking one pain point = done. The real game is finding the TOP pain point and building 10+ variations around it. Example: Pain point from research = "Hair loss is destroying my confidence" Turn it into: → "Stop avoiding mirrors because of your receding hairline" → "Why 90% of hair loss products fail (and what actually works)" → "How I stopped wearing hats to hide my bald spots" → "The real reason you're scared to take dating app photos" → "Stop pretending the wind doesn't terrify you" → "Why your wife stopped running her fingers through your hair" → "How I stopped photoshopping my hairline in every picture" → "The shower drain doesn't lie - here's what worked" → "Stop scheduling Zoom calls with the right lighting angle" → "How I regained confidence after 3 failed hair loss products" Same underlying issue in 10 different angles. That's how you scale.

@kyanbuilds Prob won’t work but did you contact Apple? I got one removed but that was a long time ago

Lmfao dude really cloned my entire app

@nicktheriot_ Extreme sauce God bless

The FASTEST way to kill objections before they're even spoken? Step 1: Take what they want Step 2: Add the word "without" Step 3: Add the thing they hate most For example: • "Keep your hair without choking down a pill every morning." • "Reduce stubborn fat without giving up the food you actually like." • "Calm your dog's itching without another $200 vet visit." That one word does more objection handling than three paragraphs of copy ever will. "Skip the pills, keep the hair" isn't just a benefit. It's the buyer's biggest excuse, deleted before they could say it out loud. By the time they finish the sentence, the reason they were about to scroll is already gone. Read and reflect, boys.

@adriamatz Pretty awesome ads Sensor tower showing lots of ratings and dls But <$5k MRR Are they web 2 app or really not making money on this

found another one a food scanner app is going viral with tiktoks that look more like news segments than app marketing some are getting flagged as unverified interesting growth strategy watch this 👇

@athcanft This is fuckin great man!

cooking up a platform to help me lazymaxx on X

@adamcarolla Are they really dumb or are they in on it

This is funny

@LinoLeighton Can you pass the info to a Superwall paywall?

Here’s the easiest way to increase your paywall conversion rate by 5%… ask for the user’s name early in onboarding. Then use it inside the paywall headline. Seeing their own name creates emotional attachment and makes the experience feel personal. Bad paywall: “Unlock all premium features” Better paywall: “ Lino, your dream body starts now.” If you don’t know how to word your paywall title, send Claude your entire onboarding flow screen-by-screen and use this prompt: “You are an expert in sales psychology and conversion optimization. Based on this onboarding flow, write the highest-converting paywall headline possible. Make the user feel emotionally connected to the transformation and excited about who they’re becoming. Focus on identity, emotion, and future results — not features.”

@nicktheriot_ I want it and I don’t even have a cat How much are these guys pulling with this?

masterclass in unaware ads

@adriamatz @marclou Grog!

@marclou Omg Monkey Island vibes !!! Congrats legends

I made a game where you have to ship a startup every 30 days. If you miss the deadline, you die ☠️ It's called SHlPORDIE.COM. It uses the same game mechanics that kept me addicted to World of Warcraft: You start as a Noob Pirate, and you complete quests to level up, like buying your 1st domain or getting 1,000 visitors. There's Discord for the social part, but you need to keep shipping to stay in (otherwise, everybody can see you walked the plank). Since 2022, I've launched one startup per month, and it has changed my life. I hope this game will change yours too.

@tris_does_stuff @athcanft I don’t know why people need the stuff. I’ve dropped more than 20 lbs multiple times and the story’s always the same First week sucks, then your body stops whining and just gets the energy from “storage” and the hunger goes away

@athcanft @JonScampi3 Retatrutide

$10k mrr doesn’t change the fact that i’m a bored fuckass loser with no gf

@athcanft @kr0der The best unlock for me lately is I’m using ChatGPT Thinking in a browser as my “developer whisperer” And codex/claude in Xcode I tell the dev manager what I want and to make it not break my shit And it gives me commands I paste to the coder I’m literally doing nothing

@kr0der lol same here haven’t used plan mode for ages

i just realised i haven’t really used plan mode at all lately it’s either talking to the agent or using the classic /grill-with-docs

@athcanft Dude 9/ Wispr Flow I haven’t typed in weeks ! I mean a little bit. But for the most part I’m having convos w Claude using voice Using the keyboard very little

@athcanft Grok convert to Kg

@athcanft At least you’re not fat Look at this fuckin progress though damn Is your cut done ?

@nicktheriot_ SPCs Not sure you intended to do it but you’ve created a new mechanism for me here Nick!

HIGHEST converting Facebook Ads timeline: 2021 = Interest targeting 2022 = Broad audiences + creatives 2023 = Creatives + CBO scaling 2024 = Creatives + testing systems 2025 = Creatives + marketing fundamentals 2026 = Creatives + marketing fundamentals + strategic production cycles Game’s evolving, boys. And if you’re still optimizing for CTR, I’ve got no words for you.

@ashen_one What is the /goal thing about? I’m new to codex/claude

/goal needs to be your final check before launching anything ask claude/codex to write its own prompt for /goal where it replicates a simulation of 5000 real users on your app/site and then just let it cook whenever I release a big update for Merl, I always run a /goal and just tell it to double check literally the entire app and let it take however long it needs to I've done this like three times so far, and my iOS app is basically bulletproof. I'm barely running into any errors, even when I ship important updates and if you're on Codex, this should basically be free for you to use, since the usage is super high and you'll basically never run out of tokens
