Not sure what's going on with @imgix, but their pricing is constantly changing and their USP of high quality images is totally thrown in the bin when the image in the footer is super pixelated... What are you using to offload & serve media from @wordpress, because let's be honest, EVERYONE should be doing this. WP should be used as a CMS, not to deliver media.

@robhope I know this is an old tweet, but we were in the same boat! We decided to build SmallPics.io to replace Imgix for our clients. Would love to have some early testers/users. We're not marketers, so just trying to find people to try it out.

My beloved IMGIX has recently changed their pricing model to a credit system. Very confusing and now bumps OPL from $75/mo → $300/mo. Same usage. Costs aside; pls learn from me and don't make the mistake I did of not using a subdomain for your CDN, example: ❌ onepagelove . imgix . net / xyz123 ✅ cdn . onepagelove . com / xyz123 Means you can move CDN providers way easier and keep your old image breadcrumbs (eg. newsletters) alive.

@jasonfried Exactly what we're doing with SmallPics.io. All the big players are doing too much and raising prices to do all those too-many things. We're just entering a proven market with no need to become a VC funded behemoth.

New products don’t need to be revolutionary, life-changing, or disruptive breakthroughs to succeed. Entire categories can roll downhill, gathering complexity as they go. Each product one-upping the next until more becomes too much. The cycle feeds itself, never satiated. Competitors locked in a loop of mutual destruction through perpetual over-improvement. When that happens, the door cracks open for something new. The newcomer doesn’t have to meet the others where they are. It just has to feel right — like someone opened the curtains and let the sun back in. The type of product that lets people exhale and say, “finally!” Not groundbreaking. Just grounded. Standing where everyone else forgot to.

I really hate that we've normalized extroversion as the default, and introversion as a flaw that needs to be corrected.

@adamwathan I've been there (am still there). Here's what I've done (some by accident). - Do it more often so it doesn't build up. - Bring evidence of what you've seen so it's not vague/unhelpful (be clear/constructive) - Get to the point. I still sweat. But I used to shake from nerves.

What have you done to get better at being extremely direct and honest with people even if it’s uncomfortable?

Something happened to business software. You used to pay for it once, install it, and run it. Whether on someone’s computer, or a server for everyone, it felt like you owned it. And you did. Today, most software is a service. Not owned, but rented. Buying it enters you into a perpetual landlord–tenant agreement. Every month you pay for essentially the same thing you had last month. And if you stop paying, the software stops working. Boom, you’re evicted. For nearly two decades, the SaaS model benefitted landlords handsomely. With routine prayers — and payers — to the Church of Recurring Revenue, valuations shot to the moon on the backs of businesses subscribed at luxury prices for commodity services they had little control over. Add up your SaaS subscriptions last year. You should own that shit by now. SaaS still makes sense for many products, but its grip will slip. Installation and administration used to be hopelessly complicated, but self–hosting tech is simpler now and vastly improved. Plus, IT departments are hungry to run their own IT again, tired of being subservient to Big Tech’s reign clouds. Once upon a time you owned what you paid for, you controlled what you depended on, and your privacy and security were your own business. We think it’s that time again. ONCE.com

UX question. Include a password/confirm password field in a registration form or generate a random, secure, password and allow users to change this later? Personally, I love the password-less form and there's arguments for and against it. #UX #UI #Accessibility #A11y

@adamwathan 100%. A process that helps 1 person, generally helps everyone. We do a lot of routine self-reports. I spoke about it at Craft's @DotAllConf last year.

It's much easier to give feedback when it's designed into your processes vs. having to bring it up by surprise. Some people are great at it, but for those who aren't (🙋‍♂️), making it an explicit step that everyone expects helps a lot.

@37signals FYI: It's more than chats/pings in Basecamp 4. Activity feeds, changing assignees on tasks, heystack notifications and more.
