My reminders on writing, design and mindset. I re-branded $300M @SteelSeries, and grow its apps. Now, building @treets_app and @readTLDR

We crashed a major event with party buses (and somehow got away with it).

Here's the story:

How to build one of the biggest Counter-Strike accounts on X:

✓ Send 700 newsletters
✓ Take no salary for 7 years
✓ Pay your own way to events

We regret none of it.

But one thing changes next week 🧵

so let’s flip the script

with @readtldr, we’re pooling CS2 creators into one collective pitch to brands

instead of being ignored, you can be part of a bigger voice

this has been cooking for a long time

our talented team of writers have been itching to share original stories

now we're giving it a go in a slightly unusual format: email first

[tl;dr on cs2 @readtldr]

this week, we're trying something new for our newsletter: deep-dives

each wednesday you can expect us to share an original piece that goes deep on a single story, subject, or anything else that piques our interest

@jasonfried I get the team compositions (designer+dev), but don’t you still have people with special knowledge - ie some who excel at web vs iOS or some who are more DevOps.

Or do you really only hire and coach devs into people who can do it all?

@nicochristie Any plans of a google sheet variant?

@eshear Twist - opinionated (threads first) but lacking in a few areas.

Too bad @doist, the team behind , is only maintaining and not developing
