I don’t think it’s much of an arms race. There are practical limitations to scan frequency that’ll keep most groups operating within the same general constraints. Added costs/fees are somewhat inevitable. I spent $25 for two small bund

I love hearing this! (My friend and I built Campnab.)

P.S., I joined each of your suggested subreddits. :-)

Thanks! I follow a few of these sorts of subreddits and do find them useful. It feels like less of a community than HN, though. I also like the text-only approach on HN. It just seems easier for my pea-brain to a linear list of items withou

My friend and I did something like what you propose (selling services and working on a product). It was hard and slowed us down a lot. Consulting work is a business all to itself. Tacking a startup on top of that just complicates matters. G

Another approach might be to toss it on blot.im. (I’m in no way affiliated with Blot, but I like how simple the product is.)

I’m happy to see this launch, Andrei! You all have dedicated so many years to working on chat for business. I’m excited to see this out there, and watch this next chapter in your story unfold!

Awesome—thanks for signing up! If you run into any issues, do let us know. :-) We’re using Wasabi for cloud storage. So far it has worked pretty well for this project.

Nice! If you do try it, please let us know how the experience goes for you. I think the onboarding process is a bit intimidating given the (necessary, yet lengthy) permissions we request. I’ll mention that you’d be interested in more option

We’ve thought about it, but I think it’ll be a while before we’re able to get to that. We also run two other products, and we’re just two people. So, we’re already spread a bit thin.

Those are fair points and thoughts I’d probably have myself. I’m not trying to sell you on this, but here are my responses to your two notes. The first is that we know it’s more expensive than Google Photos storage. That’s in part so that w

My friend and I built https://pixaver.com . It doesn’t address all of the points you note here, but it does offer some piece of mind if we get locked out of Google Photos.

I feel like you’re projecting your beliefs/values on me. We’ve never met, nor shared any interaction outside of this comment thread. I think it’s improbable that you have any sense for what’s in my heart or what I believe to be true.

Fair enough. I understand your point. Also, there are plenty of really good type families available for free. From what I’ve seen, though, pricing based on traffic is pretty common among those selling type. Plus, these are single purchases,

That’s a nice typeface!

I felt differently. For me, this article echoed the same ideas which I’ve often had about death, but I rarely hear others articulate these ideas in this way. Many are obsessed with the notion of an afterlife and over-prioritize around that

Thanks! I appreciate you saying so. I’m a total hack when it comes to type design, so, I’m still pretty unsure of this one. I go from seeing all of the problems in it, to thinking: “hey—that looks OK.” One discovery that helped with both th

I needed a type family that felt hand-printed. Lots of these fonts exist, but they have problems. Some are hard to use because their letterforms are overly varied. Others are limited to just the alphabet and a few punctuation marks. Almost

https://blot.im is a nice alternative. I played with it last spring and loved the immediacy of making an edit locally (in iAwriter) and seeing those changes made on the live blog within seconds.
