Is Bluesky active or full of bots? Posts get comments / likes, but i cant tell if they're real users. Reply Hi if you're not a clanker. #buildinpublic #fitness

Started building a little side project called Hexplore. The idea is that the map starts hidden, and as you go about your life, walking, driving, travelling etc, you gradually uncover it. - Visit Landmarks - View your stats - Unlock milestones Curious if anyone else would use this? #buildinpublic

Just shipped the Live Activity Feed for worthbuilding.app ⚡ See real-time feature usage across your product, page views, button clicks, everything. Building features is easy. Knowing which ones matter is what’s WorthBuilding 📷 Completely free #buildinpublic #saas

The best part of being a developer is figuring out why something works. Letting AI do it all feels like skipping the good part. I'd rather it automate my ironing than my code #buildinpublic #SoftwareDevelopment

Curious how others handle event logging + querying 🤔 Say you’re A/B testing a layout, how do you log things like “button clicked in position X” or “user registered” and later run queries to compare results? Any scalable approaches? #buildinpublic #devchat

Been playing with Coolify, i can’t believe how easy it is. Deployed a full stack: - Next.js app - MySQL + Redis - Background jobs All from one dashboard. Self-hosted. No pain. This thing’s a game-changer for indie devs #buildinpublic #selfhosted

DEAR ALL BUILDERS, DEVELOPERS AND EVERYONE IN BETWEEN 🧑‍💻 Remember to move your body. Exercise will change your life Start small even a 5 minute walk clears your head, resets focus and lifts your mood. Try it for a month, you'll thank yourself later. #buildinpublic #fitness #developerlife

I used to think success meant a viral launch Now I think success means waking up excited to work on something that matters It’s not hype, it’s consistency #indiehacker #buildinpublic

I used to obsess over every pixel, every micro-interaction. But I’ve realised: the fastest way to make progress is to ship, learn, and iterate. No one can give feedback on what you never release. Don’t let perfect get in the way of good. #buildinpublic #shipit #productmindset

Axend now has loot after finishing a workout! On the landing page you can claim a free item.. try it out and let me know what you think. If you're able to find the ultra rare item show me. #buildinpublic #fitness #rpg axend.fit

I'm entirely redoing savetobookmarks .com to support Bluesky 🦋 You can start bookmarking tweets now, even before the app is live, as the backend is already operational. Just reply to any tweet with: @savetobookmarks.com You can also include tags like #buildinpublic 😉

🚀Took a little longer than I thought blueskystats.app is now live! It took a little over 4 hours from start to soft-launch. Any bugs / issues just let me know ♥ View your commonly used hashtags 😍 View your most common interactions #buildinpublic #indiehackers #stats

🚀 Thought i'd jump on the bluesky stats hype Currently 2 hours in i have another 2 hours left to build tonight lets see how far we get #buildinpublic #indiehacking #blueskystats

If i have a PWA and want to have a webview wrapper for mobile apps, mainly because i want to be able to send push notifications am i better off creating a solution myself? Are there any existing services that i could utilise? If anyone has any experience with this please reach out #buildinpublic
