π₯³ TODAY I'm super excited to launch my first real world project.
π I quit my job at the end of 2020 and spent just over two months at a code bootcamp, (re)learning to code.
And now I'm launching a product!
Introducing Thread Creator π https://t.co/7QyOtCtEhG
I learned a few lessons last week, after openly talking about my journey to become a solo founder.
I had a couple hundred new followers and over 100k views on my tweets!
Time for a short thread on what I learned π
I think supporting indie makers is a worthy cause so giving this project a dedicated Twitter account make sense! Next step is a new website and better tools to help indie makers succeed! π₯³
Successfully changed this account to be the official @fundamaker Twitter account. I'll be following the folks I follow here on my personal Twitter moving forward so look out for the notification that I followed you! New profile image coming in a couple weeks time π
π Today is my last day at GitHub after four amazing years.
It's definitely a bittersweet moment. I'm sad to be leaving such wonderful people but super excited to be pursuing my dreams. π
Follow along for updates π https://t.co/3F74begsXk
π§ Announcement π§
As I'm becoming a full time maker, I'll be tweeting from my personal Twitter from now on.
You can join me here π @johnjoubert
In the future this account is going to be dedicated to growing https://t.co/b7pMaa3Fjt and supporting indie makers only ππ
Over the next couple days I'm going to merge my personal Twitter with my maker account. If anyone has done something like that before, let me know if you have any tips? π
@matteing Thanks @matteing π Yeah, I have a couple ideas that I'm going to be working on and will be sharing updates as I go (will definitely post on @GetMakerlog too) π
