Things people actually pay for...
→ Belonging
Communities, standards, shared tools & identity tap into human psychology
→ Outsourcing
Tedious, stressful, confusing, repetitive work is fertile territory
→ High stakes
Value of saving 30 mins depends on what there is to lose

I do like a simple, clever Chrome Extension. This is nice work from @JackEllis 👏
I made this simple one myself a while back delaydistraction.crd.co
I'm so excited to announce that timewaster is now live. It uses AI to draft replies to cold, spammy emails to waste their time. It's fully compatible with Gmail and Fastmail. Oh, and it's 100% free for life. This is a revolution and we must fight back.

If you're making for other indie makers, you're not competing with other tools or content, you're competing with:
“I’ll just vibe-code this”
“I’ll get AI to knock this up”
That means your bar is instant value:
fewer decisions
better defaults
clean docs
sharp workflows

I made something this week and I think I unwittingly made a kinda Blinklist for blog posts...
Some of the best writers are also the wordiest, right?
You can be 1000 words into their latest post before you even know if you care
I built Breefing.netlify.app to fix that (for me at least)
Paste any article link in → Get the stats, claims, quotes, plus an ELI5

I’m not on board with team “AI will kill us all“ or team “it’s all hype”
But I am on board with team “follow the money before you follow the fear”

What makes this AI version of regulatory capture interesting is the doom loop baked into it
The scarier AI sounds, the more funding & authority flows to the people already positioned as the saviour: the makers of the AI

We should look at who’s funding the people telling you something is dangerous
