Palapa seems to bring together some big pieces I've been missing:

- Member profiles! Slack and Discourse have really poor user profiles.
- All-in-one. Right now, we split our community into Slack (short-form, watercooler) and forums (long-form, threaded). Palapa merges both. 👌

In 2013 I launched @megamaker, a private community for bootstrappers.

Since then, I've tried tons of discussion platforms:

- Campfire
- BuddyPress
- bbPress
- P2
- Mightybell
- Discourse
- Slack

None of them have done the job well.

Apple's screenshot utility is missing "drag and drop" (something I use constantly in @monosnap).

@okproductive If I've just had "catch up" sleep (longer than 8 hours), I'll really need coffee. 😜

I try to get back into my regular routine:
1. Jump on my bike
2. Head to @ratiovernon
3. Drink coffee and interact with other folks
4. Get to my desk and start working

@ianmjones I ended up going with Google Photos. The web UI + backup app in particular seem really good.

@dchymko I ended up going with Google Photos.

I would have preferred to stick with Apple, but it costs more, and not having one main shared library is a deal breaker.

Has Apple fixed family-sharing for photos yet? I basically want one, unified photos drive (in the cloud) for my family.

Is my only option for this still Google Photos?

My friend @pjrvs has one of my favorite personal websites of all time.

I've stolen so many ideas from this site over the years.

Beautifully (and simply) executed.

Whenever I'm flying into a city, I want an easy way of figuring out: "Who do I know who lives here?"

I've tried tagging folks in @Convertkit and making manual Twitter lists, but neither of those is great.

What do you folks do to solve this?

I also really dig @jonbuda's personal page.

1. Nice cartoon illustration. Feels friendly.
2. Short, concise bio (although, it looks like he needs to update it now! 😜)

I've always been a bit jealous of @kylefox' style. 👌

I love the simplicity:
1. Here's who I am.
2. Here's some of my writing.
