Startup founders have to make difficult decisions 😅

@adamlyttleapps Glad to see you doing well, Adam :) I can hear my wife sing the kookaburra song in my head, haha 😂

When my startup failed I gave up coding to do “real” work — landscaping and lawn maintenance It was the hardest (yet most rewarding) job I ever had Puts life as an indie app developer into perspective What I miss: Being outside, using my hands, getting fit. Bring part of nature and being in awe of the natural world around me What I don’t miss; Early mornings, long days in the heat, physical exhaustion and aching body

@DanielRaz_Fit @AlexHormozi Pay peanuts, get monkeys

@AlexHormozi You won’t get A-level talent if you’re only willing to pay your employees C-level wages

PSA to boomer business owners: People haven’t gotten lazier. You’re just getting C-players because you haven’t changed your compensation since 1990.

@danielcranney Congrats Daniel! Wish you all the best 🙂

Yesterday we finally became parents 🥹 Meet Isabella (Bella) 🇧🇷🇯🇵🇬🇧❤️

@marclou @levelsio Well done Marc! Congrats 🙂

In 2021, I was depressed, living with my parents and 0 income. One day, I saw a tweet from @levelsio: A guy building startups with a laptop and no employee — Freedom. I took the plunge, moved to Bali, and shipped like a madman. I showed up every day, even when I didn't feel like it. 2 years later, I'm making $50K/month with my 20 products. Today, I was awarded @ProductHunt Maker of the Year 2023 — just like my idols when I got started. Go fucking do it.

@KennethCassel This one hits home for sure. I would guess most of my friends are like that too

a dude will be going through the greatest hardship of their life and respond to the question “how’ve you been” with “can’t complain”

@jebraat you're in my inner circle John dw

i’d do anything for my twitter frands. need to hide a dead body? just tell me time and place. but this friendship needs to be cultivated, it takes time. all this is to say No i won’t upvote your PH launch, random cold DM stranger.

@jcvangent Just Chrome. It also works in other Chromium browsers, but I only test it for Chrome and fix on demand bugs for Edge. No plans on supporting more browsers right now Downloads are tracked by the Chrome Web Store

@jebraat didn’t you have supatabs in Chrome? Do you also have it on other browsers and how do you keep track if yes on downloads etc on all browsers combined?

Very online people are usually not very happy

@adamlyttleapps Congrats, Adam! 🥳 Hope everything goes well in the remaining months and you can take some time later in April to take care of the other half 😁

The littlest Lyttle is on the way… 👶 Due in April 🎉 Been so excited to share the news! Even dropped a few hints with my OB Pregnancy Tracker app a few months ago

@daniel_nguyenx @lemonsqueezy Oh, that's a good alternative. Thanks Daniel!

@jebraat @lemonsqueezy I think no but you can put the discount on the product with a redemption limits. It does not prevent users from buying it but I guess it’s going to be a huge barrier. Plus, scarcity!!

@daniel_nguyenx Keep doing you, Daniel 🙂

I failed at using Twitter as a marketing channel. I don’t have many educational tweets or (god forbid) threads. Imposter syndrome is to blame, or maybe I just suck 🤷‍♂️ Sometimes I create memes. Sometimes I share cool stuff I build. Sometimes I share my learning. I actually like it this way more than when I was actively “building an audience” (never liked this term) Do you have a “Twitter strategy” and does it work for you?

@KaiserMitZ It really was beautiful. I had a great time! Not really active on Twitter anymore, but I'm doing well 🙂 Thanks for asking. How are you, David?

@jebraat Very nice scenery John! I hope you could enjoy the cup of tea. How is it going? You haven't tweeted in weeks :)

@iamfra5er Mis you too, my man 😁

I miss you @jebraat 😭

I love being employed by a company that deeply cares about me.. I'm self employed

@DanKulkov Fitness influencer inc

I am gonna be so big 😤

@poppacalypse @RoxCodes Not really back, but always happy to chat via DM, Carl 🙂 Just checking in sometimes. Japan has changed me a bit 😁

@jebraat @RoxCodes good to see you back John! you've been gone awhile :)

give me one piece of advice about anything based on whatever you know about me

@ferrants 💪 Well done! Glad the template helped

Got a basic extension going that can fill in forms on a page and show this popup of my prompts (static for now) Auth and Dynamic Content Next btw, this template is pretty great for starting a Chrome Extension with React and Tailwind, thanks @jebraat! github.com/JohnBra/vite-w…

The @pyroprompts extension is getting some love, how long should it take someone to crank out an extension? No longer than two weeks, right? Timer starts now!

@gyurisc Go for it. You will definitely enjoy it! Great people, great food and a beautiful interesting country 🙂

@jebraat Japan is on my bucket list for so long! This is really cool!

@jonclemonsjp Nothing better than an Onsen in the morning 🤩 Enjoy!
