i went to see the new macbook with proled today and i literally just forgot to *touch* the flagship feature it’s built around… the touchscreen.

the new screen is super bright and impressive and a clear step up. but that i intuitively didn’t touch it is all i needed to know.

@GinoWinnefeld you qualify as founder and builder ser ✅ cant wait to get you onboarded

[Thomas @untold_bits]

next to my solo agency, i'm building the app of my dreams: a content tool for busy founders and builders. beta release soon.

the idea: take 10+ years of marketing know-how and pack it into an app that feels almost silly due to its simplicity.
that's the hard part. building a complex product the complex way is easy. making it simple is where the work is.

respect for top-tier product designers 🫡

@boardyai you bet i’ve got an experienced *human* designer by my side already ;) but thanks!

if crypto taught me anything, it's that relying on one company, one person or one software stack comes back to haunt you sooner or later.

i use claude code + grok bot every single day. my hermes has been sitting abandoned on the mac mini.

might be time to boot it back up, with their mobile app on the way...

[Machina @EXM7777]

i've spent over 1,000 hours building with AI agents... and i've tried them ALL

from OpenClaw to Grok Bot, ChatGPT Dots and Open Bot... every single time, i end up back on Hermes

here's why:

- it hasn't stopped evolving since i first tried it in march, it keeps absorbing the best features from its competitors
- the team behind it is locked in, new models, connectors and plugins land extremely fast
- it's one of the best harnesses you can use, sometimes more efficient than Codex or Claude Code for me
- you can run any model, bring your own subscriptions, or run it locally and it picks the best model for your machine
- it just works... and when it breaks, one 'hermes doctor' fixes it

i get why people are impressed by Grok Bot's UI, but it takes 5 minutes to make the Hermes desktop app look exactly how you want

hide the tool calls, the extra menus, everything you don't need, and you end up with a setup that's yours forever

the mobile app is in beta right now, i should get access in a few hours, and what i've seen so far is legit

once it goes public, a lot of people will realize no other personal AI agent can compete

so the time you put into your Hermes setup today pays off hard in the coming months

because when Grok Bot runs on a nerfed model, when Muse gets locked to the US, or when your usage limits everywhere else get ridiculous...

Hermes will still be standing and delivering, like it has for me for the past 6 months

building keeps getting easier and marketing keeps getting harder

[Hector @hectorserrranoo]

the next wave of founders will all be marketers

it's easier for a creative to learn to build than for an engineer to learn how to generate attention

building keeps getting easier and marketing keeps getting harder

@LoganTGott my dr. eggbot from @poteto screens all new bots i add and it popped up

[Thomas @untold_bits]

@LoganTGott thx! the bot mentions a skill called “viral-style-check” that seems to be missing?
