Some thoughts on @dailystatsdm.bsky.social’s recent lack of activity. Will try to get that fixed ASAP

Wrote my first Op piece in a while. Hoping rosary publishing more posts like this going forward. crashtestjustin.substack.com/p/the-rise-o...

If you have less than 50 people on your team you shouldn’t be buying legacy SaaS. You should be nimble, quick, &flexible. Big SaaS locks you into frameworks & hours of maintenance in tools you shouldn’t be spending all day in. Look for apps that are as flexible as your team.

I haven’t been able to log into X for 2 days now. I tried creating a new account because I thought maybe I was hacked but can’t create one either. No idea what’s going on over there.

When the overly political accounts stop following you because you don’t follow them back 🤣

As someone that has to go through WorkDay admin training for part of a job role (not an actual workday admin)… Workday is the most convoluted and ugly product. How anyone can tolerate using that 💩 daily is beyond me

200 followers for @biptopposts.bsky.social 🥳🥳 Not bad for an automated account with no marketing!

Will this be the week I finally get to fixing @dailystatsdm.bsky.social’s biggest issue/bug??? I sure hope so 🙃

Anyone else have a weekly existential crisis that comes from being both excited & terrified of the impact of AI is having on their lives?

Apple could do little with AI in the next year but if they released a way to assess incoming group chat messages and only alert me when I actually matter in the conversation I would be happy.

I am looking to implement AI agents into my day-to-day life for various tasks. What tools and resources are the best place to start?

Why is it that all of my helper bot accounts I created here have their natural feeds flooded with US politics related posts. To be clear I spend almost no time on those account apart from some basic maintenance.

Super grateful that blueskey exists! And I am not talking about taking sides. To each their own. But, this place — honestly, it's even better than early twitter. Let's continue cultivating this, friends! Sharing, replying meaningfully, recognizing, discussing ✊

Here's another simple iOS Shortcut for my friends! The simplest protein tracker there is. Track a single day's protein intake without any additional apps or subscriptions. iOS only. Runs through apple shortcuts. crashtestjustin.gumroad.com/l/protein

As @dailystatsdm.bsky.social has grown I’ve noticed there’s something wrong with the message delivery. I haven’t had time to resolve it but I hope to do it can continue to grow.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but having a portable battery pack for topping up your devices on the go is a must! I have a couple and even use them more than wall outlets at home. Plus I don’t feel bad treating the $50 battery pack like crap to help keep my phone battery health optimal🔋

I see two possible AI outcomes: 1: we reach AGI in the next decade & it explodes how we do anything in life 2: we realize the way we built AI to today needs to be redone to get to AGI & we are still a ways off Either way we have barely scratched the surface of what’ possible with AI today.

Not sure when this happened but @dailystatsdm.bsky.social just hit 100 followers! 🥳 Thanks to everyone that followed and I hope the DMs are fun and insightful! This also means I need to start planning more features for the page 😆🤔

My new focus playlist.

This always.

Getting another post out there because I don’t like bad omens

Won’t directly call out the ones that unfollowed me 😉 Would you pay for a daily summary like this?

Excited to share that @dailystatsdm.bsky.social is listed on bskyinfo.com! You can check it out here! www.bskyinfo.com/tools/daily-...

In case you were wondering😆

I’ve come back from vacation with little desire to build. While away I wanted to make stuff but my mindset has shifted as my concern for the next evolution of SaaS grows. I need to spend some time thinking about my place in this wild AI driven world.

My @dailystatsdm.bsky.social account is almost at 100 followers! Once we get there I’ll build out a roadmap for improvements and new features. 👀🔥

Thanks for the shoutout @kaplich.me ! 🙌 Everyone go check out growbluesky.com!

I’m on vacation but I miss building. Trying to take a break but I can’t stop thinking about the things I was working on. Maybe I’ll make it to tomorrow until I sneak away to do some coding when my son is napping🤣

30M strong and full of authentic creators 🙌

Had to check. Sitting at 5 with only 1 being an active website 🙈

I think I may need to start using a database for @dailystatsdm.bsky.social's script run. Yesterday's message delivery to all ~60 followers took 18 minutes 😬! Can't imagine how long that will be once we get over 100 followers...

Finally got around to resolving this issue (I hope)! It turns out that some people are following an account designed for sending daily chat messages but have opted to not accept any incoming chat messages 🙃. You never know what to expect on these platforms LOL😆 Daily stats resumes in about 1hr⏳!

I don’t know why but @dailystatsdm.bsky.social keeps growing slowly even though the service is still down. I hope to get it fixed this week but life has been crazy 🤦‍♂️

Been seeing a lot of people talking about how Bluesky is failing. Isn’t the daily user count increasing?

Starter packs could be so much more than what they are. I see them like a curation of top performers in niches but you can choose who’s curation you trust. Trust the curator. Trust the curation. Just like high end art.

Every day I get a summary like this of the follower changes for my account. Thinking of adding this to @dailystatsdm.bsky.social soon. Also 12 new followers is a lot more than typical so things are picking up here for some reason 📈🚀

Progress continues to suck 😣 Need some better time management tactics as dad duties and work are somehow taking up all the time. Bonus if you have never management tips as I’m typically exhausted come 7pm every day.

Do awesome shit and wrote about it! I love that @finereli.com McConaughey has the similar principle for social media with his kids. Live your life and share if it’s worth sharing. Don’t live your life to have something to share.

I don’t consider myself to be on any. My commitment and consistency is too low and I have a bad habit of easily falling off all social apps.

Gotta take this advice. I have been off when it comes to sharing. Also reposting others to share additional personal anecdotes and insight is good too!

Hard to believe that Daily Stats DM only turns 20 days old soon! Already many DMs sent out to followers sharing their post stats daily and more features in the works! bsky.app/profile/dail...

the more you know 🧠

When you get this notification when putting your son down to sleep. Sleep training is going amazing 🤣🙃

I like to go to the subreddit of a big enterprise SaaS and look for recurring complaint to build a simple MVP. Bonus here is this people complaining are also primed to DM and ask to be beta testers.

Well shit

Bluesky is the only social media I know where you can follow one account and it will send you a DM when another account you've never even heard of blocks you🤣 Thanks @listifications.app! Also the only place where you can get daily DMs on your post performance - follow @dailystatsdm.bsky.social 😉
