Vibe check: Who is using Bluesky as their main platform instead of X and seeing my posts here?

Hey, Typefully co-founder here, just took a note to check how we can support the new Bsky auth soon.

@birchtree.me really love your Cleanshot update videos, would you be open to do similar videos for Typefully updates?

I have templates for invoicing workflows and for packing under various configurations based on the length of the stay and destination. Much better than URL schemes because it allows you to quickly edit the templates from within Things.

Things tip for easy task templates: Have a templates project and put task templates in there, then just create a shortcut that duplicates that task and puts it in Today.

I wonder if AI tools will increase engineering hires instead of reducing them, at least in the short term! The increased leverage AI tools provide to individual contributors is so significant that they are much more valuable. Many companies might accelerate hiring because of this.

He is and yeah I agree that’s one of the more creative people need to work in! Didn’t know about the book. I need to read it.

Same. Singapore too. But difficult to know if it’s a general trend or our respective bubbles.

I bet you could come up with a graph like this for basically any European country. Where are all these missing entrepreneurs?

Finally done with my 2024 review! At this rate I thought I would be done with it in 2025! francescodilorenzo.com/2024

it's called Streaks

Francesco Di Lorenzo @frankdilo.com · 07/01/2025
In 2025, I want to read more books and scroll less on social media. For this reason, I set up a streak to read at least 20 pages per day and uninstalled social media from my phone. Also experimenting with reparable streaks: if I don't manage to read 20 pages today, I can fix it by reading 40 tmrw.

Reading "Why Nations Fail," which argues that a nation's prosperity is determined by the quality of its economic and political institutions. I wonder if the same will apply to Mars.

Speed matters, but hard to prioritize for an existing product. Thought of making Typefully local first many times, but always got pushback from the team because of the time investment it would require.

So now I am back on Arc, probably the best browser around, but the Browser Company declared they will no longer invest in it, so it's just a matter of time before this one becomes terrible too. Browsers are not in a good place right now.

Safari feels sluggish and frequently has compatibility issues with websites; plus, their 1Password integration seems broken.

Chrome fails on me about 5% of the time when I activate it, as if it fails to load my cookies and user data and automatically resets my profile and logins.

This past month, I tried going back to Chrome and Safari for one week each, and the situation was tragic. The situation is not good 🧵

I like how you keep pushing this every time you get the chance! We will eventually do this. With the fragmentation of social media we are experiencing, I think this feature makes more sense than ever.

What's one improvement you'd like to see in @typefully.com in 2025?

Maybe we should lift that limit. Introduced it a few months ago. Not sure it moved the needle. Taking a note.

Notion is so much better than folders in Finder for managing taxes. I don't know why I was doing that to myself before. Also, SOPs for managing not having to relearn terrible government UX each time.

the thing is you want to do both squats and deadlifts every week
000
Francesco Di Lorenzo @frankdilo.com · 02/12/2024
I do them once per week on pull day. The trouble with doing them on leg day is that if you also do heavy squats, your deadlift form will suffer.

Yeah this was specifically with iPhone images it seems. We were not correctly setting EXIF metadata after compression. It was a one-line fix.

Francesco Di Lorenzo @frankdilo.com · 01/12/2024
Do you have an option to say “compress this image to be below 1MB”?

Francesco Di Lorenzo @frankdilo.com · 30/11/2024
It was an issue with Typefully. We just pushed a fix. We need to compress images posted to Bsky because of the 1MB limit on uploads. Compression messed up the orientation.

Do you think this is driving more investments in the local “real” economy? People buying real estate, setting up businesses, etc?

You have a post making the best case of the opposing argument?

Seems way more sensible, but disincentivizing investing your savings in ETFs must suck hard. How much is the tax % wise?
