Formia started as a weekend side project and has accidentally grown to almost 40k users every month. Didn't focus on it for a while and now need to lock in and actually improve it.
@levelsio@akilrajpari Huge fan of yours, but every piece of software you build would be considered "slop" in the pre-AI world. This creates a huge blindspot, as your competitive advantage has never been design, innovation, or product quality. Things that AIs are not improving at.
@alexkehr@acryptofounder Thanks I'll keep that in mind, we're trying to deprioritize conversions for word-of-mouth growth right now. Would never add "no thanks" to a paywall if we weren't trying to generate goodwill.
@alexkehr No actually, I'm extremely against dark patterns. There are just hundreds of your followers that will read your piece, immediately know it's AI, take you way less seriously, and never tell you. Maybe that doesn't matter.
@alexkehr Do you know much about Pangram? They have about a 1 in 10,000 false positive rate.
This is literally textbook AI writing lmao:
"But the part that has attracted so much attention from the subscription app developer community isn't the product. It's the funnel."
