Launching your startup on a new Twitter account will flop.
Here’s what to do instead:
• Launch on HN, Reddit, ProductHunt, TAAFT, Uneed, TinyLaunch, etc.
• These platforms don’t care about follower count
• It’s fast and usually free
Then:
• Share the results on Twitter
• Grow your audience
• Leverage it for your next launch
Winning is how you build momentum.

Such a satisfying feeling to see people find the tool I built useful.
BTW, I recently listed https://t.co/OB14kq4Md3 on @theresanaiforit . The traffic it brings is phenomenal. Every indie founder should give it a try.

@thishellerguy@petecodes@imagetocaption Thanks Joshua! Yup, yours was one of the first viral tools, and it blew up because there weren't any competitors at the time. Props to you for being first to market!
🚀 My first written interview in English is out!
You can read it here (6' read):

In it I cover:
- How I started TAAFT

Thanks @petecodes for inviting me to talk about my experience building TAAFT!
"You should probably only listen to a handful of people who really know what they're talking about. Sometimes, you shouldn’t listen to anyone."
Great to interview @imakecoolsites 😀
He made There's AN AI For That, an AI tools directory which gets 3-4 million visits a month!
I was about to read this interview with Andrei creator of "There is an AI for that" by @petecodes & suddenly had to go on a short drive.
I went to G's NotebookLM pasted the url and got a nice audio in podcast format, not perfect but a great listen.
Great job Pete and Andrei!
From my notes
- Memento mori Chrome extension / chrome home page similar to the memento mori widget from the Stoic app
- Spaced repetition app that only works for 1 thing at a time (lowest possible cognitive load)
- AI costume ideas / try-on (huge pSEO opportunity)
- AI programming language translator

🇪🇺 eu/acc
A few weeks ago Mario Draghi asked my recommendations for his report that came out today about European competitiveness
I had a call with him and summarized my problems with doing business in the EU
I wrote this which is included in the report presented to the European Union today:
1. Minimum revenue cut offs for current and new regulation
Exempt small businesses with annual revenues below €10 million from complex regulations like VATMOSS, GDPR, the EU AI Act, and certain labor laws. This approach encourages innovation and growth by allowing startups to focus on product development and market validation without the heavy burden of regulatory compliance. Once these businesses surpass €10 million, they will have the resources to comply with regulations, ensuring that growth is not stifled.
2. Simplify starting a pan-EU business with an EU-wide Incorporation (Inc.) business form
Currently, starting and operating a business across the EU is complex due to 27 member states, each with its own company registration requirements. To streamline this process and make it easier for entrepreneurs to operate across Europe, there should be a single, standardized business entity that applies uniformly across all EU countries. I call this the European Inc.
3. Start an EU business fully online, no physical offices, notaries, lawyers etc
To continue, right now starting a business in most EU member states it’s complicated, very time and resource intensive, and often involves lawyers and notaries. Instead, it should be as simple as going online to a centralized EU website, where entrepreneurs can register their business and details in just a few clicks. The entire process should be streamlined and efficient, allowing businesses to start operating immediately.
The EU government taxes and bookkeeping of this business should also be fully online in an EU portal/dashboard.
4. 0% corporate tax for first 3 years of any new business
Countries like Singapore have successfully attracted new businesses from around the world by giving them a massive tax discount during the first 3 years of business. Because they know that’s the most difficult time of a business: figuring out what product it makes and if there’s a market for it. That takes pressure off startups and business founders that they can focus on creating a great product and innovating.
5. Change tax on stock options: don't tax when a stock option is exercised, but tax it when the stock is sold
The current tax policy in the EU taxes stock options at the time they are exercised, creating a significant financial burden on employees who have not yet realized any tangible financial gain. This approach stifles innovation, discourages entrepreneurship, and places the EU at a competitive disadvantage compared to other regions like the United States.
I propose a simple change: Tax stock options when the stock is sold, not when the option is exercised.
6. Don’t see tech or AI as an enemy, but as a burgeoning and essential industry
The most popular companies in tech are focused on AI right now for a reason. It’s the next frontier of computing. The European Union seems to consider AI the enemy. Any technology can be used for good or bad. By regulating it even before Europe has made much contributions (Europe has almost no tech companies leading in AI), it has stifled any potential innovation in AI from the start.
Apart from the regulation itself, the optics of it make the EU look bad on a global scale. Why would tech founders move to Europe to start a business if the EU is actively positioning itself as Anti-AI?
AI has gigantic potential to be used for good: think of the medical field for diagnosis of diseases, generally in programming (it helps programmers to create software faster/better), etc.
This goes further than AI. The same applies to tech in general. It seems the EU is on a crusade against technology while not being able to compete in it itself. It feels a case of sour grapes: if we can’t build great technology in EU, nobody is allowed to do so!
7. Teach tech/coding/AI topics in all schools and unis
It would help a lot if the EU has a focus on teaching AI and tech in schools and universities. Making the new generation competitive in this field instead. To secure the future prosperity of the European Union, we must prioritize education in technology, coding, and AI across all levels of schooling, from primary education to universities. This strategic focus is not just an educational reform—it’s a critical investment in the future competitiveness, innovation, and economic resilience of the EU.
