at this point I think I need to make my own game more boring. for productivity’s sake. bcz every time I add something and want to test it, I end up playing for at least 10 minutes. #gamedev #pixelart

idk why, but somehow the VS Code chat window performs the worst out of all the editors I’ve tried, even with Opus 4.5. What kind of sick system prompt are you guys using? Something like: “Please do not solve issues so AI can’t take over our jobs.” @microsoft.com

Every single day of the past three years, I spent building and trying to grow a SaaS, but about ~40 days ago, I shut down all my projects and my company. I think it was the most severe burnout I’ve ever experienced in my life, and its effects still haven’t entirely faded.

I just made SDK integration ridiculously simple. It used to require adding a target element, including a script, and an extra block to trigger the mount process. Now it only takes 1 line of code to add the Stories Widget to your website. Just copy → paste → done. #buildinpublic

I believe I’ll complete the user guides for popular no-code platforms and frameworks tonight, and then it’ll be ready. Price will be $1 for the first month, then $4.99. For the yearly plan, the cost is $60, but with a special launch offer, it’s $30 (50% off). We’ll see. #buildinpublic

I just tested the final state of the stories widget live on a website. I like the overall feel, but I need to load the next story earlier to prevent blink. I believe it’ll be quick, engaging, and built to boost conversions. Here’s the screen record from my phone #buildinpublic #saas #marketing

I’ll make the initial version mobile-only, and the stories widget at the top will only be visible for mobile browsers. Because I haven’t liked the appearance in desktop mode, but I don’t want to spend more time on them. #buildinpublic

I really like this idea and could see it be an effective way for testimonials or to show use cases of a product being used

Okay, here we go. I haven't even purchased the domain, but the MVP is about to be ready. The idea is simple: an Instagram-like stories widget for your landing page or web app. Engagement, the way people already love it. #buildinpublic #indiehackers #saas

I’d been focusing on @usemevo.com for a while, but here we go again, after months, I’ve got a new idea, and I’m turning it into an MVP before next Monday. Let’s see how it goes. #buildinpublic

when I tried gpt-5 for the first time, it felt a bit meh. then my free cursor gpt-5 credits expired and I switched back to sonnet 4, and I instantly noticed the difference. I don’t think I’ll ever go back from gpt-5 anymore.

Here we go. 🚀 The idea is simple, no-code, customizable, and trackable SaaS onboarding checklists. Some solutions exist but are expensive because they have bigger feature sets. I'll only focus on a single problem. In the worst case, I can use it for @usemevo.com #buildinpublic #indiehackers #saas

1/ So the idea is to create authority with Google and other search engines. You do this by creating content pillars which are further broken in to topic clusters. These are on subjects directly and indirectly related to the problem you are solving.

After the flow feature, @usemevo.com is slowly evolving from a chatbot builder into an n8n alternative. Your chatbot will remember all previous interactions and user attributes, guide users through different paths based on those attributes, execute background actions, and much more. #buildinpublic

Is your chatbot responding to everyone in the same way? You’re losing conversions. With Mevo’s Conditional Jumps, your chatbot can: - Send each user down a unique path - Trigger actions based on data & answers Why settle for generic replies when you can give personalized conversations at scale?

#buildinpublic

Mevo@usemevo.com

Manage all your leads from a single dashboard with Mevo. - See every detail collected by your chatbot - View past conversations for full context - Filter profiles by any data field - Export for analysis or follow-ups Keep your data organized, searchable, and actionable, all from a single place.

Keeping up with developments in artificial intelligence can feel like a full-time job. I don’t want to fall behind, but I struggle to keep up with all the news. Something significant seems to happen every week. When I try to follow everything, I barely have time left to apply any of it.
