Been working on Newsy for some time. https://www.newsy.co https://www.newsy.co Newsy is a tool that converts your un-used domain names into a Reddit-like content aggregator. Allows you to make your domains useful rather than just sitting there. We did an alpha launch through Betalist and had ~250 people sign-up. From there on, we emailed and talked to every single person who would reply to our message. That built pretty solid relationships which still last today. Something surprising I realised was that people engaged more when I asked them about who they were (e.g. What do you do? What do you do for full time job?) and when they replied, I kept asking about their role, challenges. Sometimes I ask about where they are from, if they are ok from COVID. I was genuinely curious about those users as humans (how did you find my tool? What do you do on the other side of the world from me? Is it cold? Hot? etc etc).
