@katarinaore the stability is real. people who leave aren't chasing money they're chasing ownership over their time. both paths have real trade offs

9-5 is better than being a founder. Most stable $$, better social life.. Prove me wrong?

@eliana_jordan this is actually interesting. do you notice any difference in the type of people engaging on threads vs X?

Hit 1K followers on threads Started in January. No real effort. Barely replied to comments. Just recycled content from X. Growth doesn’t always feel “exponential”… but it still happens

@Jashanx_gill While me stilling using cursor..

Why is everyone making a shift from Claude to Codex?

@ElitzaVasileva from my desk at the 9 to 5 but this makes me want to rethink that real quick. Bulgaria looks very nice

POV: Working from a train in Bulgaria Where are you working from today?

@hunterjisaacson now that gap is closed. I think this is the most underrated shift happening right now for designers who think in products

Every single one of my apps was solo designed by me Brand, UX, social posts, all of it 400,000,000+ downloads $100,000,000+ revenue & exited For years I needed others to engineer the apps I designed Now I just need myself, my laptop, and Claude Best business in the world

@OnatAksaray advice from someone in the trenches right now hits different than a playbook from 2020

Most X advice is garbage. Why? It comes from gurus who built audiences 3-5 years ago. Different algorithm. Easier organic reach. Less competition. They teach what worked in 2020. Then wonder why you're not getting results in 2025-2026. I started from zero with no marketing experience. I struggled for months. But that's exactly why my strategies work now. I'm not 10 steps ahead sharing old playbooks. I'm 1-2 steps ahead showing you what actually works today.

@TTrimoreau from what I've seen it's the ability to keep going after the excitement fades. most people quit after week 3 when the dopamine of starting wears off

As a founder What is the one thing that separates winners from the rest?

@dramaricic Yeah exactly! for me it's been about talking to people before building anything

After 5 weeks building in public best advice I can give is to: “Ship it fast, ship it ugly, ship it broken, fix it later.” This works for me, what work for you? 👇

@buildwithshyam I think B, if someone copies you it usually means you're onto something. the one who keeps shipping and listening to users wins in the long run for sure

Someone copies your app today… What’s your first move? A. Check what they did better B. Focus on my roadmap C. Ship something new fast D. Overthink for a bit 😅

@dharanshi_ I use claude mainly for chat and cowork, am using 20$ cursor plan for coding..

as a developer, is the 20$ claude plan a scam?

@thejustinwelsh yeaI think there's truth in this but I'd add that self belief without reps is just wishful thinking

Entrepreneurship is about self-belief first and business skills second.

@TheOvermanEthos Yeah being around people a few steps ahead shifts what you think is possible

Underrated life hack: Spend time with people living your dream life.

@scott_bair @levelsio yep getting it in front of the right people is where the real work starts. distribution is the moat

You can vibe code a product in a weekend. You can't vibe code distribution. 200,000 new projects are created on Lovable every day. Almost none of them have customers. @levelsio has $3M+ revenue with zero employees because he has 750K followers and great SEO. The product was the easy part. Distribution was the work.

@kzitouni1 Amazing Karim! what clicked for you was it consistency or did a specific post break through?

I started posting on X 5 weeks ago - 0 likes - 0 friends - stalled account Tonight we cross 800 follows I just wanna thank the community here by following a few new faces what are you building?

@TTrimoreau the one with demand every time. you can enjoy building something nobody wants but it won't last from what I've seen demand is the only one that keeps you going when it gets hard

As a founder You have too many ideas. You can only pick one: -the fastest to build -the most profitable -the one you enjoy most -the one with demand What are you choosing? 👇

@TheOvermanEthos this is exactly what I'm learning right now. the waitlist part is key because it forces you to validate before you build. talking to people early changes everything

Dont spend months building something in the dark. Talk to clients/audience, use a waitlist and release the first version ASAP. Adapt and improve after that.

@KevinSzabo14 I think most of us have been guilty of this mate. spending weeks on a logo for something that doesn't have a single user yet the shift happens when you realize nobody cares about your brand until your product solves their problem

First-time entrepreneurs obsess about: •Their logo •Their website •Their domain name •Their social media graphics •Their photos •Their systems Seasoned entrepreneurs obsess about: •Getting customers

@sickdotdev i think the real take is that it hasn't killed anything it just raised the bar for what one person can do alone

How my feed looks like nowdays Claude just killed copywriter... Claude just killed customer support... Claude just killed front-end developer... Claude just killed back-end developer... Claude just killed you... Claude just killed the Prime Minis... Claude just killed your manager... Claude just killed everybody... Claude just killed Donald... Claude just killed... Claude just... Claude just killed... Claude just killed... At this point Claude's gonna take over the world in the next 5 years

@dickiebush making something so good that your customers do the marketing for you is the hardest part. but when it works it's the only growth that compounds

How anyone can make $1 million in 12 month (this is what I did): 1. Solve a problem you have 2. Package your solution into a product 3. Put that product for sale on the internet 4. Tweak your solution until it's so good your customers do 100% of your marketing Simple but powerful.

@thejustinwelsh I think wealth is a byproduct of standards not luck for sure..

The wealthiest people around me all share one thing: They refuse to do mediocre work. You could wipe their bank accounts clean, and they'd have it all back in three years because their standards don't change. Crazily, people would still call it luck.
