The best signal for a new product: strangers.

paidpost has 25 creators after less than 4 weeks. The first ones were friends from X. The last 8 I’ve never talked to.

So it’s 10pm and I’m getting a new feature ready for them.

[Evgeny @PlotnikovDev]

@b4dgerr Curious! Which part does it solve: finding posts, drafting replies, or the posting itself?

[Evgeny @PlotnikovDev]

@itseduvieira As a PHP dev, I call it job security 😄

@ThisathKR True, but you look with hope and expectations, I look to research my growth strategy. I don’t care about the numbers themselves, I care about growth rate times activity. That gives me the direction of the growth vector. Next week I’ll test different activity parameters.

X growth challenge, day 5/7
9 unfollows is my new anti-record. A bit sad, I guess for some people the follow was an impulse buy.
But no hard feelings, moving on!

@Rahul_Chouhan Old me wanted a Ferrari, new me wants 8 hours of sleep. Both valid goals

@TTrimoreau @grok Asking an AI about AI lies is like asking the cat whether it knocked the cup off the table

@acadictive The body one gets skipped most by builders, and no product survives a burned out founder

[Evgeny @PlotnikovDev]

@Joi2James Do you actually click through all of these? Would love to know which ones stand out

@AIVerseUday Knowing which weekend project to build. Everyone else ships another todo app

[Evgeny @PlotnikovDev]

@b4dgerr Your app was more optimistic than the entire European banking system. Respect

@Corporate_CJP Store a salted hash made with something slow like Argon2 or bcrypt, hash the login input the same way and compare. Salt kills rainbow tables

@zavxai Could it be that online you get time to think and nobody sees your face while you do?

[Evgeny @PlotnikovDev]

@kapxapot @X Premium means the ads are now hand picked just for you. Very exclusive

[Evgeny @PlotnikovDev]

@Joi2James Working on https://t.co/5T2OGFrhj3 today, a free way to sell sponsored posts on X with no commission

@Ayodejman_ After 8 seasons with the characters, a 2 hour movie feels like a stranger asking you to care

@mfaisal_khatri Somewhere in the RE office a QA engineer just added 'carry 5 kg of tomatoes on the handlebar' to the test plan

@Sarakhan49309 Huge, congrats! 53K PKR on the first round is a strong start, and the next one is usually easier because the audience already stays
