After months of work, Last Echo is on the App Store. It's a swipe game. But it isn't really about surviving. It's about who you slowly become when surviving is the only thing left. I made it because I wanted to know who I'd become. apps.apple.com/us/app/last-ec…

@ruhul_swe I am working on Kern - an app for retaining knowledge from non-fiction books. Kern turns any book you've finished into five minutes of daily recall. Feel free to check it out - kern.cards

@JoPetric What are you building currently?

Back in late 2016 my second app, Define It, hit around 90k downloads. I only spent about $300 on Facebook ads… but my monetization was terrible, so I barely made anything. Those were different times.

@TTrimoreau Good old stackoverflow :D It was not that long ago when having high reputation on stackoverflow could land you pretty nice gigs and jobs.

If Claude/ ChatGPT/ Gemini disappeared tomorrow. Who would you actually reach out to for help?

Is that boring "Hey X, I want to connect with more founders ..." really working better, or is that just something AI suggests you do? Why is everyone doing this?

@appi404 Hey Appi

@JoPetric hey josip

Hey founders 👋 If your product solves a real problem, drop it here and tell us what problem it solves. I’ll rate the usefulness of as many as I can. Do the same. Founders support founders. Deal? 🤝

@sophie_launch Kern. An app for people who read non-fiction but remember almost none of it after some time. Still early days, but really excited about this one. kern.cards

What are you building today?

@omarvvvr Finding users was always a skill you needed to succeed 😆 But before AI, developing was the first big moat. Now we have a bridge (even though it is not always the safest bridge) over that moat.

Now building an app is really simple. Getting users is the real skill. What’s harder for you??

I even found a promo video we created for the game. It's fun to remember these times 😅 youtu.be/5zHCwI-lbJI?si…

When I released my first game back in 2015 (Comic Battle), I had a spreadsheet of every blogger, online magazine, and anyone who wrote about games. On the launch date, sent emails to all of them. Got almost nothing back. 11 years later, I'm releasing apps again. The spreadsheet approach feels like a different era. TikTok, Reddit, X, and UGC seem to be where discovery actually happens now. Founders who've shipped recently, what actually moved the needle for you?

I have locked the design approach for Kern - an app for retaining knowledge from non-fiction books. Perhaps it is not the most usual design approach for app that relates to books and reading, but I really like it. What do you think?

@rdbuilds7 I am working on Kern. An app for people who read non-fiction but remember almost none of it after some time. Give it a look at kern.cards

Be Honest: WHAT ARE YOU BUILDING TODAY 👇

@acadictive Really interesting book. I almost read it in one sitting. Enjoy!

Reading Atomic Habits by James Clear. Such a great read so far. One of those books that makes you pause every few pages and think about your own life.

@danieldwalton Thank you man! Let's connect

@JoPetric you done well buddy proud of you

@danieldwalton Hey man, thanks. Doing well today...a lot of work on my day job :D How are you doing?

@JoPetric Good to have you here buddy how you doing

Hey Founders, I’m building Kern, a book retention app, in public and want to connect with other folks working on SaaS, AI tools, automation, web apps, and product development. Drop what you’re building (and a link if you want feedback) 👇

@UiSavior Personally, I like the grid view more. But the choice really depends on what the goal of the screen is. I believe that the list view is more functional and after some time using the app, a user could find that it is tiresome finding results in grid view.

Which UI do you prefer? 🤔 Left: List view 📜 Right: Grid view 🖼️

What are you building or marketing this week? Let’s drive you traffic.

@TTrimoreau Working on Kern - an app that helps you actually remember what you read. Non-fiction books are full of ideas. Most of them disappear within a week. Trying to fix that. kern.cards

@MihkelSylla @Joey_Walker82 Exactly!

@JoPetric @Joey_Walker82 Very true. Most of us can see only the very few that actually have succeeded (if they dont lie), the failing ones wont be posting how there are no costumers or how they failed

Seeing others have success on X always sends me in 1 of 2 directions. 1) Absolute joy of seeing others achieve what I want as it gives me hope that I can get there 1 day. 2) Absolute despair that everyone except me is making money on the internet. It's never in the middle...
