How are you making those sweet 3D icons? AI generated? PNG? SVG?
comment in response to post
Where is it tho?

👈 solo founder and developer Welcome! 👋

Maybe, i don’t think so. I’ve seen a bunch of users post the exact same looking screenshot and text format.
comment in response to post
So you’re doing them all manually? Cudos
comment in response to post
Just curious, what tool are you using to create this post? I see a lot of people posting this format
comment in response to post
Nice! Congrats! Are you using the openai api?
comment in response to post
Do it right away if that’s what you feel like. Do whatever you want, don’t look to others for consensus.
comment in response to post
Well it has WiFi, that’s not a lie, it just doesn’t have stable internet 😆
comment in response to post
I do the refactor my self. Usually when the app is too big for the context window. This way I force some patterns which makes the ai generate less bugs. And I have to get more detailed in my prompting at this point
comment in response to post
I always write my API keys on the wall, nice
comment in response to post
I find the best workflow is to use a native editor, cursor in my case, then refactor the code it’s generated every once in a while. If the entire app is generated it soon enough runs into bugs caused by poor implementation and a lacking understanding of how the whole app ties together.

That’s awesome! I saw someone post some website designs as well. Incredible. I’m in Europe so maybe we don’t get it here yet.

I don’t think I got the update. This still looks like shit 😅
comment in response to post
The feedback loop on such a project is way to long for my taste 😆
comment in response to post
Good luck!

7. You’re More Afraid of Happiness Than Failure Your biggest fear isn’t failure. It’s that happiness will make you soft, ordinary, or stagnant. But what if true power comes from knowing when to stop fighting?

6. You’re Torn Between Two Selves: The Builder and the Dreamer Until you integrate these two selves, you’ll always feel like you’re halfway to where you want to be. The trick isn’t choosing one—it’s finding a way for them to work together.

5. You’re Stuck in a Loop Between Guilt and Escape It’s an endless cycle: intensity → burnout → escape → guilt → repeat No amount of success will save you from yourself. Until you confront the deeper restlessness inside you, every "win" will just be a temporary high before the cycle starts again.

4. You’re Chasing Greatness but Secretly Fear You’ll Be Average Your need to "prove" yourself might actually be stopping you from doing the most meaningful work. What if your obsession with being great is keeping you from being real?
comment in response to post
3. You Crave Control Because You Fear Surrender Real mastery isn’t controlling everything—it’s knowing when to let go. Some of your biggest breakthroughs will come when you stop trying to "solve" life like an engineering problem and instead let it unfold.

2. You Are at War with Time (and Losing) The way you’re living now, constantly pushing, is actually accelerating time instead of giving you more of it. You’re making it slip through your fingers.

1. You Are Addicted to Struggle and the Chase If someone handed you everything you’re trying to build tomorrow—financial freedom, business success, even the perfect work-life balance—you wouldn’t know what to do with yourself.

thanks for helping Anthony! :D sorry for my negative tone

okay lets try this corepack pnpm enable corepack pnpm use@lateste corepack pnpm install corepack pnpm dev eeey it works! i still think it's stupid tho 🤷‍♂️
comment in response to post
are you saying you type corepack pnpm install everytime you run install? Why do you even need pnpm? npm is fast enough and works everywhere every time
comment in response to post
get your shit together people, don't just use these viral tools!
comment in response to post
it really doesn't solve any serious issue
comment in response to post
it's a hassle to run a project that uses pnpm. it just crashes if you're on the wrong version.

comment in response to post
Same! Only downside is I’m so exhausted from side projects and family life that I don’t perform as good as I want at that job and that makes it not so enjoyable
comment in response to post
I think you’re right. And it’s three years worth of revenue, so I’m taking a lot of risk off the table. Thanks for the advice @rafal.fyi
comment in response to post
I haven’t decided. I feel like a could get the ARR up by trying affiliate marketing in stead of Google ads. But then again I’d like to spend my time on developing other apps instead of improving this one.
