That's a great question. I've worked a Spotify and what they did was NOT to make a all-year-long thing and instead focus on making it better for next year So that's my plan, I aim to make it better, strike partnerships and talk to lots of people by the end of 2025 re-launch! Does that make sense?

There is a gap of time when I find more useful to ignore external advice and execute something other than search for a 1-5% better way of doing it. But agreed it is not strategically sustainable.

I feel that. I gave an iPhone to each of my parents-in-law. The iPhones were cheap compared to the time dedicated to explaining how to do everything on them. That was the real gift.

Oh yes. I love pixel art. Ended up studying a little bit so I could design and build a 'save the date' game for my own wedding: Check it out: savethedate.deboraejoao.com I'm now building an engine for anyone to generate a pixel art game for their life and love story!
