Baidu just dropped Wenxin 5.0.

Key claim: "Unified native full-modality." It processes text, video, and audio as one unified stream.

My first test: Deconstructing viral TikToks. It works.

Globally, it's now Baidu vs. OpenAI on this front. Domestically in China, Baidu is alone.

Finally, Mailpod is live!

Fun fact: today if you're using Gmail API, you need $500+ to pass their "security assessment" (which I haven't), otherwise they will show a "Google hasn't verified this app" screen when users signing in.

Uncommon Opinion:

Eliminating email verification can boost your registration conversion rate. You might not actually need email verification.

(I just removed email verification for my own product, Skyblaze.)

Just submitted my app to 200+ directory websites with high DRs.

I tracked the submission in a Notion database, normally I would sell this for $199.

But for the next 24 hours, it's FREE.

Love this tool! Many people are just so into building stuff that they don't want to post on social media.

Agentic SaaS is trending, with AI driving autonomy. I’m exploring ways to make my app smarter and more proactive… Stay tuned :)

Got a negative review. Used it to fix a UX issue. Criticism stings but helps.

Customer support drained me today, but their insights are shaping the next release.

Got my first backlink from a tech blog. SEO is slow, but these wins keep me going 💪

A user said my app cut their work time in half. That kind of feedback fuels late-night coding sessions.

Messed up my pricing page launch. Transparency with users saved the day. Communication is everything.

Google’s AI search is here, and it’s all about AEO. Time to rethink our SEO strategies.

How are you adapting to this change?

Genuineness wins.
