Working in TuxSEO (https://tuxseo.com/). The product is good, but no paying customers. I'm working on setting up a cold email campaign to hopefully diversify my outreach.
So in other words, since I'm an introvert developer, i'm trying to grow some balls to start reaching out to people.
Working on generation reliability for TuxSEO. The product is good, but needs to be more reliable. Once that is done, I will move onto the link exchange program. https://tuxseo.com/
This looks amazing, but... I have one worry. Granted I have not yet kick started a project with keel, so I might be wrong. I'm speaking from experience of building my own boilerplate.
Giving so many options, makes the boilerplate very fragile. I recently starter removing optional bits from my boilerplate, cause it became much harder to manage and made the generation very fragile.
Honestly i barely use it, just started to give it a try by adding types where it makes most sense and running with pre-commit. No issues so far. But, again, I'm a very light user.
Built a ton of side projects in the last 5 years with none of them going anywhere. Realized the distribution is a problem. So after reading a bunch of marketing books, I decided to give SEO a try. And after some playing around realized there is potential there and decided to automate this process for all my projects.
Keep struggling with moving away from building more features and focusing on marketing.
Recorded a demo today, will start cold-emailing and reaching out to people who hhopefully will find it useful.
I'm still working on Marketing Agents (marketingagents.net) in my free time. Trying to make an open source, self hostable app that will allow founders scale their marketing efforts.
Thinking about future monetization efforts and found myself liking Posthog approach for that.
Host for large companies looking to automate marketing, yet leaving it free (self hostable) for smaller companies that can't pay.
I'm lucky that I learn to self host stuff. Once i get tired of working on a thing I can just stop... knowing that it will run without any intervention. don't have to worry about switching providers for anything, since I do all the infrastructure myself
I'm a Software Engineer, working at Readwise. I was born in Russia and currently live in the US.
I love the work I do at Readwise, but I also like to work on side projects. Here are some that are still active:
