Launching HeyIggy today! 🍳 A family food app that helps you stop binning the food you paid for I built it after facing these exact weekly struggles: 😭Forgetting expiry dates → wasted food + overspending ✅Expiry tracking + smart nudges (“Use the spinach tonight, it turns tomorrow!”) 🛒Never knowing what we already had → buying duplicates ✅One shared family list that remembers everything + stops duplicate buys 📊Spreadsheets & boring lists? Stopped using them after a week ✅Fun family streaks, games (beat Grimmy the bin), quick logs & visible savings 🗑️Bunch of leftover ingredients with no use ✅Smart meal ideas pulled straight from what’s already in your kitchen Try it(first 50 users get 2 weeks free): heyiggy.uk Thanks to @shipordie_ community for the push

At 22, I moved to London barely speaking English. I worked as a fish cutter in a sushi restaurant chain. It was cool because i was one of the first women in that role. Not because I had to. Because I wanted to learn English and see the world. The funny thing? It paid better than any office job I could have gotten back home in Spain. Over the next two years, the company kept promoting me. Better titles. More responsibility. More money. But I realized I didn’t want to climb that ladder. London was exciting… but the city, the stress, and the routine weren’t the life I wanted. So I bought a one-way ticket to Southeast Asia. That’s where I fell in love with scuba diving. To keep traveling, I did whatever jobs I could find: waitress, VIP manager, babysitter… anything that funded the next trip. At 29, I became a scuba instructor. I thought I’d finally found my dream life. Scuba diving and living in places around the world. Then covid hit. The dive industry collapsed overnight. So I did something I never imagined. I learned to code because I wanted to build a scuba app. I worked as a developer for a couple of years. Honestly, I wasn’t lucky. The companies I joined invested very little in junior developers. One mentor even told me I’d never build successful products and make a living from my own apps. I knew he was wrong. Today I’m 35. I live from the products I built myself. My revenue isn’t millions. But it’s enough to travel the world, pay my bills, and wake up excited to work every day. Looking back, every detour made sense. If you’re in your 20s and feel like you’re behind… don’t panic. Life rarely follows the plan you imagined. Sometimes it writes a better story than the one you had in mind.

everyone talks about the grind of building. nobody talks about the 10 minutes after your kid asks why you're always on your laptop and you don't have a good answer

@thepoonam0914 Not anymore, if AI can do auto-commit, not showing anything Even things you built as projects for portfolio as less impressive to be honest

@FlorinPop17 Beast! Any tips on how to not miss a day. I've been consistent the whole year for at least 5/7, but every day is a toll Do you have like a minumum you have to do on the days that you don't feel or feel overstretched?

Is it reasonable to say that basically any software company needs to re-invent themselves every 5 years or so. I'm trying to think of SaaS companies that have been "doing the same thing" for decades and I can't.

@Karthikeya_0 Yep no.8 is underrated, sometimes trying too hard to force does the opposite

Nobody talks about these productivity hacks: 1. Put your phone in another room for 30 minutes. 2. Use a timer (25 min work, 5 min break). 3. Write tomorrow's top 3 tasks before sleeping. 4. Turn off all non-essential notifications. 5. Do your hardest task before checking social media. 6. Keep only one browser tab open while working. 7. Stop aiming for perfect—ship the first version. 8. Take a 10-minute walk when you're stuck. 9. Sleep 7–8 hours instead of working late. 10. Review what you accomplished every evening. Which one are you starting today?

This stupid little trick instantly stopped me from doomscrolling.📱 Last night I kept getting distracted by my phone while working.😩 So I hit record and started filming a timelapse of myself.🎥 Suddenly I didn’t want to pick up my phone and ruin the shot. Ended up finishing my work… …and got a bonus piece of content out of it too. 😂 If your phone keeps distracting you, try this once. You’ll be surprised.

2/4 TinyBundle apps are now out in the world. Parenting already comes with enough information, charts, trackers, and things telling you you're doing it wrong. TinyBundle is my attempt at the opposite. Simple apps that solve one problem well, then get out of your way. This bundle is very personal. Every app answers a question I had as a first-time parent. Two more are coming very, very soon. tinybundle.app/?v=2

Spent the weekend going over the @YoannaJuille & Lutains feedback on the landing page Honestly in the era of AI, their feedback was real, honest and extrememly helpful. Having expert advice to understand the product and explain the issues in such a short amount of time, with actionable feedback Highly recommend to give them a try, as Landing Page CRO is one of the biggest levers you can pull - lutains.com Here is the new landing page on - heyiggy.uk
