Help me quit Chrome
I've been using @Google Chrome for years and honestly never thought much about changing. It just always seemed like the best and easiest option. Lately though, I've been feeling like maybe I'm missing out. Chrome doesn't feel like the no-brainer pick anymore, and I'm seeing more and more interesting browsers out there.
Currently, @Horse is my top pick. This is the one I'm most interested in trying out, but it also seems like a pretty different approach. I don't necessarily want my productivity to dip, but that may just be inevitable whenever switching.
We need more 2 star reviews
Every two weeks my cofounder and I do a meeting we call "The Good Talk." The rule for this meeting is that we have to give each other constructive feedback or else we have to just... stare at each other. Awkwardly. It's the most useful meeting because we have to voice what's really bugging us.
I loved launching on Product Hunt a couple weeks ago. And I won't deny that it was gratifying to see a bunch of five star reviews come in after a year of building. But people, let's be honest--we're a brand new product and there are LOTS of ways we need to improve. (We just launched an internal dogfood project where everyone on our team is using Splotch for a personal use case and listing their five biggest frustrations--we have them too!)
Lovable but for Promotion?
The real challenge lies in marketing and selling the product.
I believe everyone will soon become a founder of something.
App stores are flooded with millions of options. A pretty UI and clever ideas are no longer sufficient.
