AI companies scraped 3.2M websites last month without asking. GDPR fines hit €1.2B in 2024. And you're still using Clerk with zero bot protection and no legal evidence trail. We built the thing that stops this. It's called Get401. Ships in 15 minute get401.com

The biggest trap on tech Twitter: Building a consumer app. Using #buildinpublic to grow. Realizing your entire audience is just other developers. We’re all just pitching B2C apps to each other. 😭 Who actually knows how to reach normal people?

BTC at $69,610 in extreme fear (11/100) while liquidations pile up—backtests look genius, live trading humbles you. Your code doesn't feel fear. You do. #Bitcoin #AlgoTrading #BuildInPublic

Beta testers found it. We fixed it. That’s the whole point of testing real devices, real users, real edge cases you never see in development. Every bug report makes Noventia better before it reaches you. #BuildInPublic #Noventia

hot take: most indie hackers spend 80% of their budget chasing 10k people on paid ads and zero budget reaching the 100k people subscribed to newsletters in their exact niche the audience is already assembled. we just refuse to go where they actually are #buildinpublic #founders #indiehackers

Unpopular opinion: most multi-agent systems in production today are just expensive, non-deterministic spaghetti. The teams winning in 2026 won't be the ones with more agents — they'll be the ones who figured out coordination. #buildinpublic #DevTools

Moved foodmoods off clerk to better auth and handling all myself and in my head I’ve been asking myself why I didn’t do it all along. Clerk is way too messy now and keeps throwing a lot of errors on production.

@itsnotbernhard 9th outage is genuinely rough - auth going down takes everything with it. That's exactly what pushed us to build get401.com, started as our own escape hatch. EU-hosted, you own the user data, no lock-in. Would love your honest take if you kick the tires.

Alright, this is the 9th Clerk outage in 2026. We're in the market for an authentication provider.

@michael_timbs @iannuttall The auth outage tax is brutal when you're just trying to ship. That frustration is exactly what pushed us to build get401.com - EU-native, you own your data, no surprises. Curious if reliability is the main pain or is it the lock-in too?

@iannuttall If you use Clerk this is probably the 50th outage you've experienced

Heads up if you use clerk your auth is probably down right now

@RansomLeak @justbyte_ Spot on. The real lock-in is operational -- who owns the incident? Rotating keys, pulling audit logs, controlling breach response... that's where "managed" bites you. That's exactly what pushed us to build get401.com

@justbyte_ Both handle your auth and data, which means trusting their security team with your breach response. Can you rotate encryption keys? Audit who accessed what? Pull logs for compliance? Vendor lock-in isn’t just about migration cost – it’s about losing control when something breaks.

Be honest, which one do you prefer??

@aantich Spot on. Auth as an afterthought is what kills most agent projects in production. The "just wire it together" approach works until it really doesn't. That exact frustration drove us to build get401.com - EU-native auth with zero lock-in.

2/8 The problem: building production AI agents means solving auth, vendor lock-in, context management, and fault tolerance. LangChain gives you 50+ packages to wire together. CrewAI is Python-only. Both treat auth as an afterthought. We needed something different.

⅛ We just open-sourced OneRingAI — the AI agent engine we've been building inside our enterprise platform for 2+ years. Single TypeScript library. 12 LLM vendors. 40+ integrations. Built-in auth, resilience, and multi-modal. Why we built it and what's different: (thread)
