I know about his story with Figma, and AFAIK he managed to push it forward through the Thiel Fellowship (which I've considered myself too).
Honestly as I've mentioned in the post I've been quite excited about the product (specially when I managed to make the MVP useful enough to replace AE for simple GIFs, I even use the tool for that purpose) and my initial plan was definitely to make this happen, but I haven't really seen a solid way to go about it full-time without taking a huge risk, specially at my age.
- Vomzor 7y agoYour age is exactly when you should be taking huge risks.
