   Thank you!! I wouldn't call this a launch though, I was expecting to post into the void xD

   Thank you!! I'm not the one that will create this, but I agree. The more you can A/B test everything, the better xD

   I feel like that's less of a problem because the user is more likely to convert on the version that he likes more, which would still provide accurate data. But yes, there is no perfect solution with the limitations of the API :D

   Thank you! Yes, custom built with Tailwind. First I wanted to use a landing page template, but then I decided it would be easier to just build it myself hehe

   Definitely double down on the one you already have. Starting from 0 is way more difficult than starting out with 300 followers. Transform your profile and make it super interesting (work on your banner and bio, then have a good pinned tweet

   Oh right, that's actually a better technique! Thanks for the idea.

   Thank you! > I think the only downside to this approach is that there might be some effect based on time of day or the interval affecting your results. That is definitely true. I'm about to start alternating the versions every 5m to

    Oh! That's a good idea. I didn't think about that. I think at some point I'll have a free plan for everyone (with limited features). I just need to finish implementing all the profile components and then enable only some of t

    Thanks. The secret is that you need to tweet a lot [of good stuff] :D

    Thanks, did quite a bit of work on the landing page :D I got a bunch of great feedback on Twitter as well, so I could polish it a bit.

    That is correct - it switched your profile version at a regular interval. Indeed, that's the only way I could do it. The Twitter API has its limitations :D I didn't know there was a specific definition of A/B testing. I'

    I have about 15 users. Because they want to optimize their profile and perfect the funnel that converts profile visitors into followers :D Or test out which profile converts to more clicks on their bio link.

    The only reason I built Birdy is because I'm totally a fan of the platform :D I'm not so much a fan of the App Store platform. As far as Twitter Profile A/B Testing goes, it is in my plans to add AI-based suggestions (based o

    Hey, thanks :D > Pricing: you could tie pricing with the performance (pay $1 per extra followers that your best version is getting - cap at $X0). That's interesting, I never thought about this pricing model haha. I'll see if th

    Thanks :) > I guess for this to work best, you need to be very consistent with putting out content to get a good baseline? Exactly! You need to be active, because the stats are based on profile clicks, which are derived from your tweets.

    I built Birdy to help you optimize your Twitter profile with continual automated A/B testing! Why? More Twitter followers. More website clicks. I'm a huge fan of Twitter since I discovered the indie makers community. I wanted to c

    I'm always blown away by the effort some of us put into random passion projects. This looks amazing! I personally wouldn't install it. I don't like cluttering my browser with too many extensions and I don't use Wikipedia
