Spent some time today on quality-of-life fixes. Also started improving the "draft posts" flow ✨ This is coming in the next couple of days 💻🌱 #buildinpublic

sdsa.ai has some AWESOME easter eggs Is it a marketing website, or a hidden cyber challenge? (well now I'm posting about it, so it's evidently good marketing!) /dev/agents is David Singleton's new startup (ex Stripe CTO). They're really sweating the details, and having some fun 😄

Easter eggs found in the /dev/agents terminal

Anyone else or just me? #buildinpublic

Two buttons meme: "grow existing projects with MRR" or "build free stuff for Bluesky"

Added support for drafts to blueskyscheduler.com Also added a warning to make sure you don't lose unsaved changes when leaving the page ✨ Productive afternoon!

Finished the landing page 💪 There are still a few things I'd like to improve, it's not polished, but I wanted to get something "good enough" as a starting point - I feel like I've done that. Fun fact: the first post in this thread came via www.blueskyscheduler.com. It forced me to get started 😅

Anyway, back to building: I really underestimated how long it would take to write the copy 😅 Copywriting is not my forte. Or maybe the problem is indecisiveness (ha) Speaking of which: I need a second opinion here, any preferences? I'm leaning towards the bottom one b/c the spacing feels better...

- Added a subheading to showcase the benefits - Fixed the CTA - Wasted a bunch of time on a very annoying auth bug Need to add some social proof here, but for now, maybe I'll have some fun with it 😄

Placeholder idea for pre-launch "social proof"

Btw, the homepage currently looks like this (...yeah, that's all I've got) I'm happy enough with the header copy, it gets straight to the point and I'm okay with keeping it narrow - for now, at least Need to communicate the benefits better (so what?) and the CTA feels pretty ugly (sorry button)

Screenshot of the homepage I'm hoping to replace

This weekend I went to Japan House, London to see their (free!) exhibition on Japan's replica food culture Amazing how realistic some of the models were. They even have croissant-colour paint 🥐 www.japanhouselondon.uk/whats-on/loo...
