Leaving Tech

I'm surprised how many of you on 𝕏 are into 2 or 3 of these: Tech Money Health If that's you, let's connect.

@notmissing_ Indeed!

@leaving_tech True

Writing a good tweet is 99% thinking and 1% typing.

@i_mika_el yes, it feels pretty random sometimes

@leaving_tech No clue. Super confusing so far. What worked yesterday might not work today. I think getting viral replies is super important to get more traffic on your feed. But somehow it’s connected to momentum. Few posts that are not popular and you are back to zero reach

It's so quiet today I can only assume X paid everyone but me and you've all gone out to spend it.

@ArunimaGanguly2 glad you have you around! 🥳

@leaving_tech i am here :-)

@MnFounder My most viral one (1M views) was about "escaping my 9-5" but in a "health/longevity" post. So actually I can see is about my "Leaving Tech" topic. x.com/leaving_tech/s…

@leaving_tech that's the main problem... does it make sense to have a viral post if the people watching are not the people you want to have in your circle?

Congrats to the ones that got paid from X. We're next. Are you?

@MnFounder those were very random, not related with tech at all 😅

@leaving_tech you did it only on niche posts or you went to any viral post?

@rand_longevity yes, I just get more relaxed with the diet on the weekends

@leaving_tech just don't make it a trend

morning sunlight hits your eyes with red and near-infrared wavelengths that go straight into your cells and activate your mitochondria now your entire body is on the same time, and you wont crash at 2pm

@i_mika_el yeah, me too. It's good to understand how these things work and where the money goes

@leaving_tech Great mindset. Even though I am trying always to keep eyes on the ball. Just focus on the goals

@i_mika_el 😆 I don't rush tbh. My focus is how to provide value and understand what people like/need. Then, money will arrive (or not).

@leaving_tech Sure, right behind you 😁

@SebsterSpeaks Exactly. Mine is anonymous but personal. I like this way for now. I'll keep talking about what I feel I can talk: tech, money, health and more.

@leaving_tech There are people writing only about one thing, but if the account is personal, it's virtually impossible not to touch some other niches.

🚨𝕏 Payout doesn't worth your time, if you are a LEGIT Creator 🚨 Some people will say "You got paid, WTF are you complaining about?" Let me explain: * Huge effort and time in creating original content that, more often than not, it's buried by the 𝕏 Algo * Constant change of the rules, inconsistencies * No transparency (where is the "Home Timeline Verified Impressions Feature? In the trash? Got it!) * You can have tens of thousands of followers, your content reaches almost nobody. * Grifters are still making hundreds and thousands of $ with 30 seconds copy-pasted content effort * 𝕏 Team is too focused on delivering features nobody asked for, instead of fixing the damn platform first. It's like building a 10 stories luxury house on a wretched foundation! * Exceptions exist, but they are a drop in the ocean. Those exceptions are promoted so much, that it's hard to see the shit behind the golden curtain. Let me make this clear: if I would be here for the money, I would starve and be long. I'm here for the people. I built a serious audience (9.4K verified followers, over 12.5K active users), but all the effort seems to be in vain, for one simple reason: my content doesn't reach my followers. If you are new here and you still believe you can make a living here, I'm sorry to break it to you: you can't. If you are here for fun and for the people, then, yes, 𝕏 is the place to be. Congratulations to everyone who got paid and condolences for whoever didn't. Enjoy your weekend. Peace out!

@brandononchain yeah, that's my feeling

@leaving_tech Feels like the timeline got its salary today and I missed the memo.

@SebsterSpeaks I was thinking about this yesterday, when I posted about Bitcoin and the stock markets. I usually write about Tech but I don't want to limit myself to a niche. Maybe is the wrong strategy but I'm still experimenting. At the end as people, we have different hobbies.

@leaving_tech Pick a niche, they say. Which, if you ask me, I find it absurd. People are following us for who we are.

@RoaringHammy With $10K/month would be enough. But depending of everyone's personal situation.

How much money do you think you need to earn before prioritizing work life balance over money?

@shashank__says Full time job + building on the side Looking forward to move to the next setup.

Founders who are also solo builders. What is your actual work setup? → Full time job + building on the side → Quit job, building full time → Freelancing + building → Student + building → Building on savings runway

@amooh001 I did exercise and groceries shopping already!

Things to do on a Saturday: 1. Do something active gym, walk, or sport. 2. Tidy your space and get your environment right. 3. Work on something personal (skill, project, or idea). 4. Spend quality time with people who matter. How are you spending your Saturday?

@XMasterrrrrs It must be very frustrating bro. I got limited my account for 3 days for no clear reason. It seems they reset the counter for you. I hope they fix it for you soon.

⚠️ Repost this What's wrong with X? I worked hard to grow this account to 10,000 followers. My account has been paused for 3 months. I submitted an appeal, but I still haven't received any response. Now it's showing that I need to reach 5 million impressions again? What the hell, guys? Do we really deserve this? There seems to be no one looking into these cases, no proper human support, and not even a response to appeals. Now I have to complete another 5M impressions, and even after that, there's no guarantee that my account will be unpaused. This is extremely frustrating and unfair for creators who have spent years building their accounts.

@i_mika_el So we should be next. It's going to be tricky those 5M... but we'll try.

@leaving_tech And me…. 😂😂

@SonOfDavid219 Exactly. They have everything they need. No excuses!

@leaving_tech They have to man, they certainly have the infrastructure and data for it.

If you're Google CEO, what's one change you would make today??

@ekemini58110 Sorry man. No news yet? I hope they can get it fixed soon.

@leaving_tech Sadly not even verified 😔
