yeah i agree tracking the tiktok cohort separately will be interesting, but this happened last night/this morning so it’s too early to know their retention yet. the 40%+ dau/mau is across the existing user base, and i’ve also been at 500+ dau every day for the past week, so i’m not just measuring the tiktok spike (too early to know) as evidence of stickiness.
woke up to a random person posting my app is their tiktok video
a trend that says “my snap??” showcasing other alternatives
and they included mine.
i woke up 500+ users (another one of my friends had a video do 34.6k so that helped too)
but this video has easily been my biggest accomplishment yet
im beyond happy that my app is being enjoyed
with a 40%+ stickiness ratio (dau/mau) everyday
i know sharespot will take off
than you to everyone for supporting me
let’s keep going
i built the world's first security scanner powered by Jev
Clod scans your vibe-coded app for security holes, then opens a PR to fix them
free scan → https://t.co/0mothQnEP9
first 10 people to RT get a free month of the PR bot
shipped a database change at 4am
didn't test it because i was tired and lazy, so i went to bed
it broke sign up
woke up at 10am to find 57 people had signed up overnight and every single one got stuck on the first screen
7 hours of new users hitting a wall because i didn't check my own work
as a founder there are 2 things you can't be:
tired and lazy
lesson learned
