Spending my Saturday evening learning a bit more about Framer https://t.co/ue5UKDwueW

@learnframer fault :)

[Virginia Vila @virginiavila]

@framer I was waiting for this. I’m not a Framer Creator though. That’s what I wanted to use the challenge for as well, to become one and started earning money

It’s 2025 and we’re still confusing simplifying with dumbing things down.

Simplifying helps people understand your ideas faster.

Dumbing things down leaves people with less than they need.

One creates access.
The other removes substance.

Simple ≠ simplistic.

I’ll take the silver lining: X is still a place where people share incredibly valuable content.

This is day 5 of going through all the posts I’ve ever saved on social media to see how much content I can create from them, and what I can learn along the way

I found a tweet I saved back in 2024 with how to build a specific system. That same system was part of a guide I bought later on from another creator.

Yes, the guide goes deeper and didn't cost much, but I already had it saved, for free🙁

Yesterday I had a 1:1 fight with Elementor. I spent two hours in something it should've taken me 20 seconds. Yesterday Elementor won but today I found out how to fix it, and it felt so satisfying.

Not sure if it was because today was a super busy day but “unsaving” has been easier than I expected.

Maybe the hard part was opening the folder.

Once I’m in, I just know.

It’s the “I’ll check it later” that slows everything down.

Progress: 45/161 bookmarks reviewed.

👍 Possible content ideas: 13

👎 A topic I find v interesting but don’t have the time right now: Midjourney.

💡100% of the posts I saved about AI tools or ChatGPT prompts are already outdated, and they were all from 2024.

Working on a website redesign that feels like triage.

5 fonts, 2 conflicting visual identities, not responsive (I know...)

The client came in frustrated and disappointed. So am I.

I’ve taken on a few redesigns this year because they’re so rewarding. But wow, they’re tough.

@uxchrisnguyen You showed up on my feed in 2022 but it was later on when I started following you on LinkedIn. When I saw that first bookmark I thought: “there’s no way” lol

#FromSaveToCreate Day 2

1st platform I’m starting with: Twitter.

I created my account in 2009 so this should be good.

Number of bookmarks: 161

👎 I can’t export them without using an external tool.

👍 My oldest “saved” is from 2022 (it could be way worse).

Fun fact: 👇

Next is figuring out how to check those 161 saved tweets without spending too much time.

[Virginia Vila @virginiavila]

I’ve been saving posts for years and never going back to them. They just… pile up.

So I’m doing a challenge:

How much content can I actually make from all those saved posts?

For the next 52 days, I’ll be documenting the process here. Let’s begin
