@leahatloop Yes, but (often) the earlier you get that momentum going, the better.

You can get years of “practice” in in your 20s, which can certainly be a benefit.

@Yourfahee Good luck! 🙌

@chadkoh 😱

@fortysevenfx I can’t imagine!!!

@gimenete For me, my SaaS has given me the most money and the most free time.

@jongold This looks amazing 🤩

@beingbrad It’s very good. Especially the second episode:

@lkr @podcastharry @TransistorFM True.

We shared our numbers publicly from $0 to $30k in MRR.

But after that, it felt like the cons outweighed the pros: our competitors had a massive advantage because they could see all our numbers.

@Mr_DannySingh How do I access Spaces on the web?

@anjsud @Vimeo Exciting! 🎉 Congrats!

@CasJam Interesting. Are you thinking of “engineering as marketing” type things?

Btw - “stories that highlight our product” include people tweeting about you, sharing a YouTube video about you, talking about you on their podcast. I think there are ways to encourage this. 👍

@JamesCridland @Inoreader Agreed. I always liked Reeder for the Mac.

@VaibhavSisinty @rahul_sureshan Pre-orders from your audience can give you a nice boost, but sometimes it gives you a false-positive signal (you feel like there’s genuine demand when there really isn’t).

@ScottKloustin This.

Open systems will, invariably, depend on centralized aggregators, networks, access points.

(The only exception is email, maybe?)

@8BIT Btw - I wrote it because I found it helpful. This isn’t “marketing.” It’s just a post I wrote on my personal blog, for free.

Weird that you’re so triggered by it?

@8BIT I think you know when you’ve expended a good chunk of your mental energy in a day.

That’s the time to unplug.

For me, when I keep going, I can feel it. I’ve overexerted myself.

It’s the confluence of all your experiences and traits, coming toget…

@iChris Lol. Yup

@tylertringas 🎯 it’s hard not to hard 🙄 at this.

@DustinLeblanc @LaraconUS thanks ❤️

@mattmedeiros @CasJam @tylertringas The thing is… nothing is really easy.

Discovering demand for a product, getting the resources to build it, finding people to help you, executing in a way that satisfies the market….

All super hard.

For me, partnering up has made it 1000x better. (Might not work for everyone)

@CasJam @tylertringas Regularly putting the intention out is a good first step though:

"If you're open to it, I'd love to partner with you on this. I think I could really bring a lot to the table."

Or:

"Are you interested in partnering with me on this? You'd bring a lot to the table."

@tylertringas As with (most?) good things... a strong partnership is almost always the culmination of years of intention, practice, and action.

@DanielZarick I just love my team 😉

@MatthewBogart Can’t wait!!!

@stephenrobles @ApplePodcasts @appleinsider Keep the RSS feed as is. Apple's been having a lot of trouble with the crawler.

Removing the manual episode might be prudent. 👍

If you're missing episodes on the public Apple directory, that's normal. Best to wait until Apple fixes everything. 🤞

@troygilbert yes, that was a painful transition for me.

my parents didn't want to get a 486, so I had to wait until we could afford a pentium!

@stephenrobles @ApplePodcasts @appleinsider It's not just you! Almost everyone is experiencing problems since Apple updated Podcast Connect.

I have an updated list of all known issues here:

Best advice: connect your RSS feed, click "Save," and wait 24-48 hours for it to properly pull in your feed.

@heathborders Loved Sneakers. (I was 12 for that one)

@rskopecek 🙌

@dgoodlad You’re in.

@patio11 That would have been a weird time!

I still want to know how much $$$ some of those early shareware successes were making.

(Thousands of kids downloading zip files off of BBSes and mailing in $39 checks to get unlock codes)

@brennandunn Oh, def. 💯

@marcelpociot YES

@chadkoh Holy crap

@basgras Is Berlin my lost tech-utopia?

@shoden 🤣

@stauffermatt Buy the NFT and you can OWN IT*

@ruxton @yongfook Seriously, those would probably kill it.

(Especially if you got a bonus 1.44 MB floppy)

@knrz_ Thx 🙏

@typeoneerror omg incredible

@RachRodgersEsq @Target Whoa! Congrats! 🙌

That’s amazing. 🤩

@tnorthcutt Normally it should show the cover image, title, description

@BaryPradelski @CaulfieldTim @MicheleJGelfand Yes.

But it really seems to depend on the dynamics of a particular loose culture, and the leadership.

Some loose cultures have a more egalitarian streak, where others really emphasize the power of the individual to stick out and do what they want.

Getting above the clouds in the 🏔 does it for me. 👍 (it’s the only way to see the ☀️ some weeks!)

@ids @TransistorFM @PodcastOfDays Not yet, but this is something we’re working on!

@amywlsn @evoterra @ApplePodcasts Are you saying that when you logged in via Safari, you stopped seeing this screen?

@r00k @jonbuda lol. Jon and I all day.

@r00k Love this idea.

@evoterra @amywlsn @ApplePodcasts Interesting!

Is this the looping behavior you’re referring to?

https://support.transistor.fm/en/article/cant-log-in-or-submit-to-apple-podcasts-h0r4ao/

@amywlsn @evoterra @ApplePodcasts I’m not sure starting a new account will work. It seems everything is affected (old accounts and new ones).

@JackEllis Totally!

@JackRhysider Are you still missing episodes?

@jasonmlange @Apple Are you still locked out?

@harriskenny Yeah. I can't believe they still haven't fixed that.

@cgimmer @tylertringas @marshal @StephanieKelton I think QE is here to stay.

The US used similar policies to remedy the Great Depression, as has Japan.

I’m curious though, how would you solve the present-day situation?

@cgimmer @tylertringas @marshal @StephanieKelton This is the way it’s always been!

You want to go back to a time before central banks?

(I know there’s a crypto angle in here somewhere...)

@cgimmer @tylertringas @marshal Also, could it be that demand for assets (and their increasing value) can also be attributed to more “regular” folks wanting to own stocks and property?

(Low interest rates help, for sure, but they’re not the only factor)

Also: the pandemic.

@NathanG But if it gets traction, can you just add an RSS feed and... it works?

@NathanG That’s my point.

In that case, Apple’s 3 categories (as listed in my video) make the most sense:

- Free (RSS)
- Freemium (RSS + bonus/ad-free)
- Paid

Better to be clear about the most common use-cases than give people an option that only a tiny % might use.
