@ItsKieranDrew Use Kit and couldn't agree more.
I like beehiiv as well and they've built such a great product; but the constant dunking on Kit is a huge turn off!!
The people still whining about AI slop are starting to sound more annoying than the slop itself.
I love AI slop, and I am tired of pretending this is some kind of moral failure.
Some of you talk about AI slop the way old Italians talk about jarred pasta sauce… very offended, theatrical, and convinced that civilization is ending because a paragraph was assembled in a less romantic kitchen.
I do not share that concern.
I actively look forward to reading three completely frictionless paragraphs about generic topics that evaporate from my memory the exact second I scroll past them.
It is a genuine relief to consume content that demands absolutely nothing from my intellect.
We already have to make hundreds of taxing decisions every single day, so finding a deeply predictable post about leadership and marketing and “most-people-don’t” is like resting my tired brain on a very beige pillow.
I want my timeline to safely resemble a conversation about the weather with a cashier who is actively refusing to make eye contact—a spectacularly hollow exchange of literal nothingness.
@theandreboso i think the trap isn’t exactly founders selling to founders; it’s founders mistaking familiarity for opportunity..
you konw the problems, you know the lingo, but that comfort blinds you to whether anyone else actually wants it
@ItsKieranDrew i think every ad manipulates..
the question’s whether it manipulates "for" the customer or "at" them.
a lot of brands forget the difference
@thejustinwelsh honestly, subtraction looks peaceful on paper but feels violent when you do it right..
cutting what doesn’t compound usually means saying no to stuff that flatters your ego
Person A with 10k followers makes $15k a month.
Person B with 100k followers makes $5k a month.
Why?
The former has a community.
The latter has an audience.
@TheIntegralPath i read somewhere that the body resets after physical danger through movement
but with digital danger, you just sit and stew
no running, no shaking, no release; just your nervous system stuck in browser tabs
@Nicolascole77 facts. but lowkey, the best part of paying for help is seeing how generous people actually are.
once you reach out, you realize expertise isn’t scarce; it’s just under-asked for
@ItsKieranDrew love this.. but it’s also funny how “earn with your mind” quietly replaces one ceiling with another.
the new limit isn’t hours, it’s distribution.
ideas are only as scalable as one's ability to get them seen
@jonbrosio yeah.. the irony is, people pay more for simplicity, not sophistication
clarity scales faster because it reduces cognitive load, for you and the client!!
@Jayyanginspires i’ve realised “environment” isn’t just people; it’s inputs
what you read, listen to, consume. your digital surroundings shape you faster than your physical ones now
@thejustinwelsh yeah, and what’s funny is you can’t fake these signs. you can fake motivation, but not peace..
that’s why it’s such a good compass; your nervous system tells the truth before your metrics do
