Elon Musk on overcoming fear:
‘When thinking about fear, look it straight in the eye… and it will disappear.’
‘The nature of fear is that people don’t look at it. Look at it directly and it’s gone.’
Ngl, I truly believe my team is a trio of legit madmen on the most turbulent journey to the sun's very core. We'll either get there alive or get there dead - either way, we'll be there.

My boy always tells me, "They don't understand what it took to get here. They can't understand even if you explain it to them. It is why we always find ourselves exceeding our mates every time: because by the time we get there, the effort it took to get to the same position makes us simply greater."

Super happy to announce that Postiz reached $80k MRR!
It's been crazy, wild months, going from $20k to $80k feels like something from a movie.
If I had to summarize how it all happened:
> Built an app in open-source 1.5 years ago
> Did mostly Reddit marketing
> Found new audiences on n8n and MCP
> Features on @starter_story (17k/m video)
> Got to $21k MRR
> Pivot to agents
> @oliverhenry wrote a banger that got 7m views on X
> Kept scaling articles on X
> Build more CLI tools, oauth2 auth, etc.
> Reached $80k MRR
But the most important thing about the story is to build something truly valuable that can really move the needle for other founders!
$6,185 MRR.
That growth curve hasn't dipped once.
Not a single down week since March.
$74K ARR. $926K to go.
The million dollar goal gets closer every morning.
