    building WorldLink / Global Friends
    Update

    I keep forgetting about this because it’s so small, but Global Friends has been nearly ready to release for too long. As I’m finishing final reviews for @founder-mode ’s App Store release I will do the same for this app.

    Learn

    Started using inngest.com - It’s an open-source project for managing events as durable functions. This helps ensure that events can be safely retried, that we don’t waste money on excess API calls/LLM invocations, and have excellent observability. Loving it so far!

    building What2Do.lol
    Update

    Realized that all apps I’m working on (Founder Mode, What2Do, and Vagabonder) will all depend heavily on data from the web that is diverse, fresh, and readily available.

    on Founder Mode

    For Founder Mode we use Discord’s “Shipping” voice channel to help each other on our journeys. However, our FM App has no such equivalent- leaving the space possibly feeling empty. The idea: Add a bar like X Spaces on the feed, and use it to bring people into Discord voice. This should keep the community alive without having to build the voice infrastructure. Please check the claude artifact and share your thoughts and ideas!

    New idea

    The problem

    Non-engineers creating complex systems and losing track of it. Vibeslop

    The idea

    Service that takes a complex repository and refactors it to its basic KISS essence, follows engineering best practices, removes slop, and helps users understand their architecture.

    What I'd do differently

    Time is limited! Focus on what makes sense for you now. Don’t try and juggle too much at once.

    Deprioritizing, this kind of business will require capital & tons of time (compliance, managing initial users, ..). Not the best use of time right now. This idea started as a joke but was started due to interest from cofounders, however, it doesn’t make sense to pursue at this time

    What I'd do differently

    Juggling many responsibilities, let alone multiple startups, is hard. It’s best to keep things simple and focused - especially in the beginning when projects require your full attention!

    Neither founder has adequate time to find customers. Growing EchoBox would require higher focus on branding & customer acquisition. Putting project on hold for time being
