This month marks my 3 year anniversary at my 9–5, and I've finally realized. I can’t do it anymore. I have been trying to build something on the side since 2023. I created an Amazon account. Failed, margins were razor thin. I built a Shopify store. Never launched it, burned out before publishing. The inventory is still sitting here in my home office. In December, I started on X with 0 followers. I had ideas, but no direction. I didn’t even know how to tweet properly. Fast fwd to Now: around 400 people are watching me figure things out in public. One SaaS is almost ready to launch. Two more ideas are ready to be worked on. Goal is simple, make any $$ online. Although, I haven’t made anything yet, but the real win is I believe in myself that this time it will all work out. One month ago, I had no direction. Now I’m building in public, showing my face, and interacting with others. I am not stopping anytime soon. So let’s keep it that way. Shoutout to @CodeWizard for inspiring me to write this 🧵.

@vadym_petryshyn Consistency above anything for sure

I've crossed 800 followers! Zero luck involved - just a system that keeps working.

@StevBuilds You got this. Go more on replies. Engage and let it grow.

2 million impressions last 3 months are in the books. How to make the 5 million happen? Any experiences or thoughts?

@acadictive Create is the way

The first decision you make every morning is: Create or consume?

@ElitzaVasileva Yep its been an amazing day so far

The new X algo is absolutely amazing! I scroll and I see all my friends and fellow indie hackers 🥹

@stanlee0nX I am usually stumbling upon old gems.

TikTok is the best place to discover random beautiful songs

@rixlabs Why bro?

@chaosengineerr never have never will

let's be honest are we still using vscode?

@lukeksia Cursor is being so good lately

@chaosengineerr Cursor all day every day

@manol_ai I am using by the way

@chaosengineerr Yes, to make forks no one use anymore

@sheiscopywriter I am with you

@chaosengineerr Better retention

Your product gets only ONE improvement this month: 1. faster onboarding 2. better retention 3. fewer support tickets which one wins?

@dash12_dev Yep you got it

@chaosengineerr You wrote it correct order my friend

@Chikker96 Retention comes on top

@chaosengineerr retention. faster onboarding only matters if the user has a reason to come back after day one

@Taniyatweets_ That is most important

@chaosengineerr Better retention keeping users beats constantly chasing new ones

@ericDvoss Cursor is being real good

@chaosengineerr Cursor. Workflow beats raw model power every time.

If you had $100, what would you choose? - codex - cursor - claude code

@DariusMorarRO Claude is great but limits aren't

@chaosengineerr Depends on what project you work on, but for me, I feel that Claude is the right way.

@Granis87 Codex is goated

@chaosengineerr Already picked codex on 200 plan

@vahideng87 That is great

@chaosengineerr Cloud code

@MnFounder Same I am using Codex in VS Code

@chaosengineerr Codex because I can use the subscription in Hermes

@MehulFanawala The new algo update is being great.

Good to see mutual posts again on my timeline.

@marclou I am loving every bit of it.

my new feed is full of indie hackers i follow, it's so nice 😊

@eliana_jordan 1 app x 1000 is the way for me

founder question: - 5 apps × $200 MRR - 1 app × $1,000 MRR? which one are you choosing?
