It is fun to see the number of people who #buildinpublic go up through the number of rebuilds on @Netlify.

It is NOT fun to see a bill of $21 on your account though. πŸ˜‚

Watch your build times when you use #Nextjs build hooks people!
The #buildinpublic leaderboard was down for some time, I did not restart the script when @TwitterAPI sent empty byte on the stream. I fixed it by adding these 3 lines of code. Hopefully it’ll work. 🀞
Remade #buildinpublic leaderboard in #nextjs, added a search bar on it. Thinking of redeploying to @vercel..
@MySaaSJourney I did not do any filtering except directly from the Twitter API. I do know that twitter does not allow duplicate consequent Tweets though. So, I guess I put a lot of faith in #buildinpublic makers to not spam and provide honest progress πŸ˜…
Whoops #buildinpublic leaderboard was dead for a few hours because I did not handle EOF error on the twitter stream πŸ˜…. Filled up 22G of space in the VPS in under 10 minutes.

Lessons learned.
Inspired by discussion between @arvidkahl and @yehudabrick on Indiehackers, I made a leaderboard for #buildinpublic daily streaks to help makers stay motivated!

Thinking of making a Twitter bot that congratulate makers on daily streak milestones next.
