day 1 of building snips in public ๐ข
I built an app because I have thousands of photos on my phone and somehow still canโt find the moments I care about.
the idea became snips:
choose one photo every day.
miss a day? it stays empty.
choose one? thatโs your Snip. forever.
over time, those moments become the story of your year.
private by default. just for you, or the friends you choose.
snips is already live (160+ users), but Iโve barely shared the process of building it.
so starting today :)

unpopular opinion: muse's hype won't last.
i actually used both, muse and instinct.
muse is faster in some places, but it keeps hitting walls - stuff it just won't do for me.
and the thing that keeps me coming back to instinct: PROACTIVENESS.
instinct keeps pushing useful things to me without me asking - insights, things i missed, reminders, stuff worth acting on.
muse is connected to my gmail, calendar and more, yet so far it has pushed me basically nothing.
and i think that's where retention is won.
a tool you have to remember to open is still a tool.
a tool that keeps giving you reasons to come back becomes a habit.
my bet: muse's active user curve spikes hard, then falls off a cliff.
