SuperReminder, first prototype: Adding a new alert.

Was figuring out how to work with Plasmo and remembering React 😬

I know it is not much, but still, what do you think?

I'm starting a new project 😱

I have been working on @folgeapp for the past 3 years, and finally ready to try something new.

My main goal is to create something I would use every day.

And I found one problem that I feel many of you have as well... 👇

Did you know you can download a free Windows 11 virtual machine for testing and development?

1) Download VirtualBox for your platform (virtualbox.org)
2) Get a virtual machine from developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/…

Install VirtualBox, mount the image and 🎉

Indie makers be like.

The next week is going to be fun. Finishing the docs, newsletter, last minute testing. Wish me luck

Folks, do you talk to someone or yourself when you code or build something?

Do you discuss what you are doing at the moment now with a "rubber duck"? [0]

Are you talking to your pet about building an MVP? 😂

I'm going insane, but I noticed that airbnbs are like indie startups. 🤪 😵

Some are great to stay in and feel at home: you have everything you need.

But others have annoying elements and miss essentials you have to go out and buy. But WHY ❓👇

#buildinpublic

One small tool helps me fight impostor syndrome and lack of progress as an indie maker.

It is called Trello.

I use it to create and set measurable goals and track my progress toward them.

The full "DONE" column at the end of the week always empowers me. 💪

Reddit Ads, #3

📊 Result of running ads for 1 week

1️⃣ 17 clicks in 1 week 😞
2️⃣ only 1 app download
3️⃣ First visual: 11 clicks
4️⃣ Second visual: 6 clicks

This is disappointing, but it encourages me to experiment more

Folks, is there any tool that simplifies Google Analytics and gives more insights into data, like keywords, user sources, and flows?

Something for SEO newbies that just integrates with GA and processes the existing information it has.

🤖 How I, for the first time, used AI and programmatic SEO for @folgeapp

I accidentally stumbled upon checklist.gg and realized I could generate meaningful checklists for my personas and processes they use Folge for. 👇

Reddit Ads, Day #3

Seven more clicks, 15 in total.

Adding more subreddits that I found using personas for @folgeapp. Let's see if this helps.

@domng_me thank you for the r/ProductManagers suggestion.

Reddit Ads, #2.

7 clicks only 😿

Not sure if this is good or bad, but going to keep it running for a week and then tune it a bit. On the bright side, Reddit gave me $100 in ad credits, so I can experiment.

Development of the next 1.14.0 version of @folgeapp is officially over.

Now I have about 15 tasks on my Trello board to write and update documentation for the new changes 😭

@ThePeterMick No time to explain, hit the follow button! 🚖

I'm Oleksii and got here to post memes and talk about my project folge.me .
As you can see I just posted a meme, so follow me to learn about my experience. Right now I'm experimenting with Reddit Ads. #buildinpublic

🤯 Compare pages are already on the second page of Google for "COMPETITOR alternative" queries.

It took google 4 days to parse them and start showing them to users

I feel like this is partially because I manually update sitemaps each time I add new pages.

#buildinpublic

Looks good, right? ;)
