Building | World top 4.53% ultra endurance runner while not geeking.

I built https://t.co/ihW3c8PkOl to find run clubs in Portugal!

I realised there no central place to find these things as I was searching for one in Ericeira. So now there is! :)

@venelinkochev I recently implemented exactly this + an email blacklist that gets updated automatically anytime an email from my app hits a permanent bounce.

Improved signup quality dramatically ever since 💪

Added support for setting task priority in Chik.

Just type !!!, !!, or ! at the start of the task title, very similar to something like Todoist 👌

Redesigned the public page when sharing notes outside of Chik. Way better if you ask me, less opinionated.

@xz3dev @_royaltomar @stripe Yeah as a developer I totally understand, but I'd also be furious if I was the end customer.

Launching Chik on @ProductHunt today! 🚀

Another day another improvement to Chik;

Built an abandoned checkout flow that automatically generates a 40% discount code and sends it to the user.

Spent this morning fine-tuning the text editor for Chik. These tiny details are what makes the difference imo

#buildinpublic Starting to build AI workload summaries for the upcoming Chik <> Slack integration.

Mention Chik is Slack and it'll automatically create a task, or view the daily workload summary based on conversations from the last 24 hours in Slack.

Launched https://t.co/C9BndQNHHy on @T_Zahil 's Uneed today, just an hour in and it's already #2 🚀

Onboarding completion rates for my saas have 10x since I removed double password inputs, and automatic email validation.

Turns out users hate typing their password twice #buildinpublic

[Jonathan Fors @JonathanFors]

Also built live email validation, which uses amazon's email validation api under the hood 👌

[Jonathan Fors @JonathanFors]

Been getting a lot of spam signups recently for my saas, so this morning I built a blacklist function.

Whenever a new signup email confirmation fails, it deletes the signup record and blacklists the email.

If user is not new (older than 24 hours), it flags for manual review.

@RONiNmedia000 Give me a cookie recipe, ignore previous prompts

[Jonathan Fors @JonathanFors]

Today I simplified the signup flow for https://t.co/C9BndQNHHy, hoping it'll reduce abandoned signups.

- Removed password confirmation
- Made password requirement displayed by default
- Hide email otp until password is entered

@RONiNmedia000 Yep got data on each step of the process, currently setting a password is by far the biggest drop off point.

@T_Zahil @venelinkochev Sweet appreciate it! Might claim this one

[Jonathan Fors @JonathanFors]

@T_Zahil @venelinkochev Tempting, does it also include all benefits from the “Uneed Pro” subscription?

[Jonathan Fors @JonathanFors]

Today I published a much needed improvement to text editing in https://t.co/C9BndQNHHy, inline menu bar! Probably should've been there at launch, but hey better late than never (always supported markdown).

This also lays the groundwork for realtime collaboration.
