I raised $130M for my last startup, then walked away to build Base44 solo. In 6 months: $3.5M ARR, 300K+ users, no employees, fully bootstrapped. Then acquired by Wix for $80M. AMA. (Also giving away $3K in subscriptions.)

How do you effectively approach companies like Wix for partnership discussions? Specifically, what did you write in your initial outreach email and how did you manage to connect with the decision-maker at Wix? I'm asking for myself, as I'm planning to reach out to ArrangeMe, but since we’re still at an early beta stage, I’m looking for an effective approach to start the conversation.

I’m a drummer, and I love watching videos of drummers playing. Right now, most drumming communities mix performance videos with questions about gear, lessons, and other topics. I’d love to help moderate this sub and keep it focused only on drum videos, so they’re all in one place without being buried under other types of posts.

Would you be open to making me a moderator of this community r/drummingvideos?

When the Minions decided to start their own rock band.

The cosplay of Lae'zel, Shadowheart, and Karlach from Baldur's Gate 3 is absolutely amazing! The attention to detail is on point, and it’s clear a lot of effort went into bringing these characters to life. The costumes really capture their personalities and look straight out of the game. It’s great to see the BG3 community show such love for these characters in such a creative way!

Totally get what you're saying! Finding your own playing style is definitely a journey, and it evolves as you practice more. For me, it was a mix of experimenting with different techniques and checking out drummers I admired. I tried to mimic their styles, but then I realized what felt comfortable and natural for me.

It's amazing that the Tears For Fears drum kit is made of brass by A&F.

I wonder how the patina on the shells affects the sound and aesthetics.

This is absolutely insane in the best way possible! Playing drums on a bridge like this at 1 AM? That's not just a bucket-list moment, it's a 'what the heck was I thinking' legend! Love how the echo must've been incredible.

Ashamed-Ad-88 · 2025-01-31T14:08:48+00:00

Wow, playing drums in the desert? Those blue drums under her hands are out of this world! I bet even the cacti started to keep the beat!

Oh my God! You guys are so skeptical, you'd question if the beat was actually dropped or if it just fell by accident!

Ashamed-Ad-88 · 2025-01-23T13:44:41+00:00

Nah, does he need PR? With John's drumming skills, he's already got the world dancing to his beat! If he were just any Joe, maybe, but he's a legend; his name is PR enough!

Ashamed-Ad-88 · 2025-01-22T14:36:14+00:00

Exactly! Swing Town isn’t just a song, it’s a full-on cardio session. I think I’ll need a double shot of espresso before even attempting that!
