Every one of those people assume that their AI can do anything for them & it will be good enough

If they could outsource eating dinner to their AI they wouldn't hesitate. probably.

Disgusting level of laziness and lack of critical thinking

[Demi Abatan @thisisdemilade]

Why do so many startup websites look almost identical?

Same dark background.

Same gradients.

Same revolutionizing the future language.

Where did originality go?

@coryalthoff this fundamentally makes no sense if you mean everything related to marketing A-Z

[Tony @nomoarchive]

Social media card designs for a branding system project - using exactly what I've mentioned in my previous post here, nothing more

Clean, consistent, and confident - that's all you need

[Tony @nomoarchive]

@Peteriishak Ok fair but isn’t it so every startup/product is ultimately aiming to be taken seriously?

[Tony @nomoarchive]

@kirtandopamine Glad there are normal ppl here who don’t freak out to anything related to the ai race haha

[Tony @nomoarchive]

@ThomasMWWalker @signulll I respect the effort 😂😂

[Tony @nomoarchive]

@butshaunn @signulll Cant wait to see the yt videos „how I made a company from scratch in 3 minutes & got the first sale”

☠️☠️

@Peteriishak Nothing wrong with them I just think that over time the .com domain has create it’s „brand” as a sign of sth serious online even if it’s not meant to

But it probably also depends on the target audience

[Tony @nomoarchive]

@jaimintf Fair point

[Tony @nomoarchive]

@giladbuilds The level of design taste an early startup actually needs isn’t any rocket science - just gotta follow the core design principles & rules you can find anywhere on the internet

& don’t be afraid to explore as many ideas as you get

[Tony @nomoarchive]

The fastest way you can get your MVP to look serious (without spending $3,000 on branding agency):

- Get yourself a bold and minimal logo symbol
- Pick 3 brand colors: primary, secondary & background
- Select 1 font to use in every visual asset
- Figure out consistent visual layout rules

Apply these consistently across all of your profile pictures, landing page, headers, social media posts, favicon, business cards etc.

Secret sauce: don't use AI

Spend 1-2h to do that and your MVP will instantly stop looking like a side-project and look like a serious startup

[Tony @nomoarchive]

@Guronnimo @kirtandopamine Roughly that. Yes

[Tony @nomoarchive]

@ArjunGfx how can you be such a good designer like what... 😍

[Tony @nomoarchive]

@Anas_founder dropping idea would be the worst thing to do. Competition proves demand. The most important thing is figuring out better positioning for the app
