That's exactly where we are now in our indie business, all comes down to an endless grinding phase and being persistent 🤕

Playing around with @placidapp no-code integrations – endless possibilities for automated images! 🤯
I created a short demo of how to tweet a generated image with @zapier every time you publish a @webflow post:

We’re looking for no-code testers. DM me 😎

If there's any software that's worth the money, it's placid.app.
At Starter Story we use the API to generate hundreds of automated designs a day and share them across IG, Twitter, FB, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and for social sharing images.
Incredibly powerful.
.@thepatwalls is tirelessly experimenting with new templates and creates TONS of images for Pinterest, Instagram and Open Graph for @starter_story 🤖
I always find myself wanting to click on them to read the articles!
Melanie Massinger retweeted
Design automation is going to save us all a lot of time in the future 🤖
Robots can generate thousands of image assets for us in minutes if we define some basic rules & branding.
We can then use our time to do more meaningful tasks than creating *yet another* Pinterest image 🥱
Melanie Massinger retweeted
We just deployed a major Placid.app version update!
💼 We switched to a project-focused system and migrated all existing users and sites into that!
A significant milestone which allows us now to easily extend the systems in which you can plug Placid in the future!

Recently I got the feedback that Placid is not the right name for our Service Placid.app
Do you think we should rename it? (Please comment why ✍️)

One year ago today... the 24 Hour Startup Challenge!
Hundreds of devs built and launched a product in the constraint of 24 hours, and streamed it all on Twitch.
Crazy times - and the biggest live-streamed hackathon ever done!
See all products launched: 24hrstartup.com

But to choose a different path, you must first be aware that a different path exists. That you're even ALLOWED to walk that way. So that's a big part of the work: Giving the next generation of entrepreneurs permission to say fuck endless growth, fuck VC, fuck the unicorn mill.

A strategy for thinking clearly:
Rather than trying to be right, assume you are wrong and try to be less wrong.
Trying to be right has a tendency to devolve into protecting your beliefs.
Trying to be less wrong has a tendency to prompt more questions and intellectual humility.

As you may have noticed, the #24hrstartup is morphing into @shipstreams - an event-based live streaming platform.
Last week, we did our first #ShipSaturday and I wanted to highlight some of the amazing work that was completed in ONE day.

🔥 @shipstreams by @_feloidea and @arminulrich
A revolution in the making!
Shipstreams was easily one of the most ambitious and innovative products of the year.
With the addition of @thepatwalls to the team, we can only expect a bright future for the platform.
