Curious to see what model was the most popular over the weekend. Though given that Anthropic is consistently rate limited, I think they'll be the LLM of choice.

I'll be honest, like most platforms, the algorithm keeps things pretty secret, so I can't be 100% sure. I only shared how grateful I am for having a small number of subscribers.
I wrote it more for my followers than gaining traction. Maybe the algorithm likes authentic posts.

Just a heads up: If you're on Substack and want to boost your growth, try using Notes. I was pretty skeptical when they added the feature, but after being a bit more active there, my follower count has jumped 25% in just 48 hours.

Most founders don’t hate marketing.
They hate shouting.
Good marketing isn’t loud.
It’s helpful, consistent, and easy to trust.

The best founder trait? Unreasonable consistency.
Keep showing up. Even when no one claps.
Even when growth is slow. Even when you're tired of your own idea.

That first $100 MRR is painful.
$500 MRR is painful still.
You feel like nothing’s working.
But once you find the lever,
$500 becomes $1,500.
Then $3K.
It snowballs if you stay steady.

I used to genuinely think being a founder meant working 14 hours a day.
Now I know: If I can't take a walk without checking my emails, the business is running me, not the other way around.

MRR looks good in a spreadsheet.
But until you have at least 3 months of expenses covered, you don’t feel safe.
Recurring revenue buys time.
And time buys better decisions.
