There is no MRR for an app that doesn’t launch. Day 10 of building and I’m prepping the app for launch in the next day or so. Super excited to launch Focus Flo and I hope you’ll find it as useful as I have 🤟🏻 Looking forward to getting feedback! #BuildInPublic

@Joeldominic123 Thanks for that! I've been trying to avoid that as much as possible. It's almost been more difficult than actually making the app.

@wpursell_dev Biggest mistake with waitlists: just dropping a signup link and hoping for the best.

Just launched my first mailing list ✉️ Building it for the upcoming launch of Focus Flo — my AI-powered Pomodoro app. Problem is… I’ve never marketed a waitlist before 😅 Any solid recommendations on how to get people to actually sign up (and convert)? Would love your real-world tips — growth hacks, emails that worked for you, or just what’s been working lately. Appreciate it 🤟🏻

@KevinSzabo14 Sometimes I worry about being marked as probable spam on replies. I’ve seen several legitimate replies get marked as spam on my posts, but the crypto spam accounts don’t get flagged 🙃

Sometimes I have to act like an absolute idiot on here so people don’t think I’m ai. If I’m even a little bit smart sounding… it means I must be fake right? So I dumb it down or make stupid jokes so that I’m seen as real Anyone else?

@rxhit05 To be fair, 100 users can give you priceless signals on how to improve. I’d argue that’s more valuable.

What's more valuable early? 1. One paying user 2. 100 free users

@icanvardar One prompt wonders can find themselves in a lot of trouble. The real win is if you understand what you’re trying to architect and get AI to help write what you already want.

you still need actual programming knowledge to vibecode btw

@PratikSinhatwt Hard no on that one. If anything it’s what’s left. AI excels in logic, not so much design.

Frontend is Dead?

@chrissyinspace @tinyshots_ Tinyshots UI trying to get in the shot 👇🏻

I made the @tinyshots_ GIF recording UI invisible in recordings so it doesn't record itself. Now I cannot show you what it looks like because it's invisible in recordings and screenshots. Please believe me, IT EXISTS!! 😭

@Steezehuman Just have to start writing things AI could never! Sausage

stop using ai to write your replies

@vandanasoc28779 X has been great! For SEO though probably a personal blog.

Which platform is best to write your content? 1.) Medium 2.) X 3.) Personal Blog 4.) Others

@reactive_dude NextJS has some pretty good start templates if you just wanted to code one out. Thats what I did for Sheepnote.io

Need a landing page. What tools/models do you use? Opus gives me ultimate slop. Send help pls 😭😭😭

@volosatovde @Jbm_dev I’m seeing a trend here, lol.

@Jbm_dev Same here)

one hit wonder

@JavaDevTaha @thesayannayak Just ship it 🚢

@thesayannayak Do it

Best startup advice you have received?

@eliana_jordan Right now? Just my personal brand one. I feel I can generally get good traffic from one rather than managing a lot.

how many tt accounts do you run per app?

@suni_code Launching an app that helps you ship faster by focusing on one thing at a time 👇🏻 focusflo.io

Drop your project URL 👇🏻 Let’s drive some traffic!!!...

@TTrimoreau I built mine in Flutter, but my next one is 100% going to be Swift native. All native capabilities (live activities, push notifications, etc.) are way easier to mae that way.

What’s the best way to build an iOS app today? -Swift native -AI tools (Cursor / Claude) -no-code -cross-platform -something else

@offpaths To each their own 🤷‍♂️ I like least understanding how the code works.

TDD + vibe coding should be the default prove me wrong.

@chrissyinspace @HsanC_ I’m convinced a proper chair will 10x your growth overnight 😂

Daily update 299/∞ 🤩 Coworking with @HsanC_ in BKK 😭 Proper desk + chair 🌷 Positivity

@KevinSzabo14 Agree, but the 90 days should be a data gathering and learning time. If you pivot in those 90, you’ll find what people care about.

Nobody buys from strangers. Post consistently for 90 days and watch how differently people respond to you. Trust is the only sales strategy that compounds. What’s your biggest challenge with staying consistent?

@CarlosBBuild I can only imagine rolling up to Starbucks like this, lol.
