Fund a Maker

A couple months ago I wouldn't have dreamed I'd be writing this update 🤯 ✅ Quit my job ✅ Finish a code bootcamp ✅ Build a product 😻 Launch on @ProductHunt 🚀 Today I'm launching @threadcreator on PH and I'd really appreciate your support 🙏 🙏 👉 producthunt.com/posts/thread-c…

🎬 Recorded a little demo to showcase how easy it is to create and schedule threads with @threadcreator 👇 youtu.be/wEEgcETYE0Y

🥳 TODAY I'm super excited to launch my first real world project. 😅 I quit my job at the end of 2020 and spent just over two months at a code bootcamp, (re)learning to code. And now I'm launching a product! Introducing Thread Creator 🎉 threadcreator.com

My story was published on @hackernoon today 😍 hackernoon.com/heres-why-i-qu…

I learned a few lessons last week, after openly talking about my journey to become a solo founder. I had a couple hundred new followers and over 100k views on my tweets! Time for a short thread on what I learned 👇

Nice to see my post surfacing on the front page! indiehackers.com

Shared on Indie Hackers too. indiehackers.com/post/why-i-lef… via @IndieHackers

Last week I left GitHub. Here's thread about why and my plans moving forward 👇

I think supporting indie makers is a worthy cause so giving this project a dedicated Twitter account make sense! Next step is a new website and better tools to help indie makers succeed! 🥳

Successfully changed this account to be the official @fundamaker Twitter account. I'll be following the folks I follow here on my personal Twitter moving forward so look out for the notification that I followed you! New profile image coming in a couple weeks time 😎

Some light entertainment... a little meta during an actual pandemic but still a fun evening!

😅 Today is my last day at GitHub after four amazing years. It's definitely a bittersweet moment. I'm sad to be leaving such wonderful people but super excited to be pursuing my dreams. 🎉 Follow along for updates 👉 johnjoubert.com

🚧 Announcement 🚧 As I'm becoming a full time maker, I'll be tweeting from my personal Twitter from now on. You can join me here 👉 @johnjoubert In the future this account is going to be dedicated to growing fundamaker.com and supporting indie makers only 👏👏

Working on merging my Twitter accounts from tomorrow 🎉

Over the next couple days I'm going to merge my personal Twitter with my maker account. If anyone has done something like that before, let me know if you have any tips? 🙏

Super excited to announce that in 10 days (October 1st) I will officially be a full time indie maker! No more day job! 😻

Just3⃣more days to go! Wrapped up most of my work and only have admin left 😅

@petecodes Totally agree 👍 nohello.com

If you are going to shoot your shot just ask your question - sending a message with just "how are you?" or "hello Pete" isn't much of a conversation starter 👍

@matteing Thanks @matteing 🙌 Yeah, I have a couple ideas that I'm going to be working on and will be sharing updates as I go (will definitely post on @GetMakerlog too) 😎

@harishkgarg Thank you! 🙌

@jjbuildit Congratulations and best of luck. 👏

@soheilpro Haha, thanks! 🙌

@jjbuildit Welcome to the club 🙌
