Most founders dream of VCs knocking on their door.
@tannerlinsley has had that for years.
And he keeps saying no!
In my conversation with him, he shares the struggle of keeping @tan_stack, an OSS product used by millions of developers, free of monetary influence.

@brian_armstrong@MonetSupply@moo9000 You cant ship without a senior dev reviewing it and so lots of none tech people creating pull requests is just a bottle neck. Just tell the truth... you are cutting staff to make profits look better, just like the other companies have.
@brian_armstrong Red flay right here: "Non-technical teams are now shipping production code". None tech teams cannot make an app secure or scale it. I work on apps daily using AI. It has limits. Just say you are cutting staff because profits are not great. The truth.
These 3 things make a content creator stand out:
Transparency.
People don’t connect with perfect. They connect with real.
Wins, losses, confusion, setbacks… all of it.
Everyone fails. Not everyone gets back up and shows it. That’s what builds real respect.
Authenticity.
Just be you. Seriously.
There are billions of people on this planet… a lot of them will rock with you if you’re real.
Fake personas and gimmicks might work short term, but they always fall apart. Every time.
Personality.
Say what you want, but nobody follows boring.
People follow energy. Perspective. Voice.
If they can’t feel you, they won’t stick around.
This doesn’t happen overnight.
But once you lean into these 3 things, creating content gets way easier.
And more importantly… it actually works.
@YoSoyWald@genuinearticles@PapiChuloGrim I think there are 2 ways it can be resolved with the ideal one being Arweave fix the gateway issue but that might take some time. Other option would be to update the metadata which is still mutable so could be done. It can be solved though so all will be okay.
@genuinearticles@PapiChuloGrim@YoSoyWald Looked in to this some more. Seems to be an Arweave gateway issue as this is happening to quite a few collections. So images are likely still on Arweave but they reroute and return a 404 error.
@Rainmaker1973 No ads.... later becomes an advert engine! Have you seen mobile search recently? Full screen of ads for any service you Google. Is total trash now.
@elonmusk I find Google's AI to give the worst responses. I don't use it anymore because I can see how deeply the issues run with it starting with the rules it has been given to follow. Even the data it has seems to have a heavy bias on many topics.
