Considering to use this tool for very very regular build in public updates.
Just for visibility with nerds that want to follow along with a deep dive. What do you think?
I do like bsky and I'm investigating in its future this way.
X stays marketsy

Yay 1k followers / thanks y'all - bsky is the place to be. I'm experimenting currently with the algos on X and will be back once I'm smarter. This here has more potential in my opinion. There is no algo in place (at least not a weirdly sentiment-configured one). Hope it stays this way

Finally got my company account back from X. What a mess. Back to marketing and fixing bazillion bugs in production. I need a deadline again... let's define it at the end of the month = seo, bugfix and marketing date.

Little heart attack today:
github.com/vercel/next....
Needed nextjs experimental progressive loading, qs and server rendering to work.
But I managed to hack this together with the form approach (thanks to leerob). Looks buggy - but prototype works now.

Progressive loading of images in action. Learnings:
✴️ AVIF images = best (compat, small & crisp)
✴️ Sharp.js is amazing (for pixel buffers & AVIF conversion)
✴️ SVG & SMIL for the pixelate effect
✅ No more playing games with progressive loading, let's ship the rest

AI is actually stopping me from coding/refactoring. So... next => I dev without AI until I have a problem to solve where I need a pairing buddy or refactoring hands

Either an LLM assistant destroys you with over-implementing things and doing way too much patching. Or your steps are so small (incl. tests) that the API reaches rate limits or is overloaded. I still can't be friends with AI easily
Is there some trick I don't know?!

There's this weird feeling that people are trying too hard to 'engage with others'. Relax y'all! There is no algo for attention. Just shoot your question, announce, provoke, celebrate, do what you like. It's bsky after all...

Want to add some flair to your Bsky profile?
I made an indie hacker labeler that lets you add labels to show what you are made of. ⭐
Project status, MRR, financing, etc. All the badges are there. Just pick which you want and enjoy the clout!

I think it's coming along. Current state: results & highlights on one page. I'm ready to start with this experimental layout first. Super distracted this week - focusing again on autocomplete and tagging (this is harder as you might think)

Not OK (>1MB of nothing). I'm trying to make a minimal "new tab" page work - and the bundle is huge. No bueno Nextjs - considering switching to Svelte because of this.
Probably release first - Svelte "new tab" page, simple extension. Then switch main to Svelte as well. Sounds like a plan...

There is something addicting to gobbling up all these #indiehacker and #buildinpublic starter packs. Do you also have some #developers lists (svelte/js)? Curious to find some nifty stacks.

A little fun distracted with the logo - added some text around it (preparing SEO card header images) ~ I like it now. Considering adding a 1-liner description. Maybe some more fancy background

Do I show my signature (created by) in a product to highlight that this is a solo builder thing or do I let word of mouth tell the story instead (to capitalize on surprise)? #buildinpublic #indiehackers #solopreneur

🦋 rules 4 me & my indie hacker family to counter 𝕏:
1️⃣ I don't need a generic response / I'm okay with just telling my story - a like or repost to show your feed-friends is a cherry on top
2️⃣ I reply with creativity / teasing - no offense ment
3️⃣ Unconventional > Boring
Have fun
