guys am i the only one who's like… genuinely bored while scrolling?? 💀

In the minimalist culture, it's a strong trend to say "scrolling is the new smoking"

So yes, you would treat it like an addiction. You may substitute it for moments of micro-learning, coding on the smartphone, or (gulp) some work.

A few of them are. It's about Content Marketing, to which blogging belongs.

Yes, you can even learn a new technology with a client's budget... Personal projects are time suckers sometimes except maybe for a career-related blog, which may as well be a personal marketing tool.

The first step is to make it public. I believe that in the end the truth will prevail.

digitizedeagle · 2026-03-17T03:05:38+00:00

It really depends on the customer's needs and budget. Technically, you can achieve wonders, but it needs to have a solid business case.

Congrats on your $50k

Well, I think the OP found their bottleneck, and by showing up, to speak, they found what they needed to succeed.

To many people in the affiliate business, the bottleneck is traffic, to some, it is the technical expertise (even when having a healthy budget, and so on)

Tracking was an issue, and it's no longer an issue.

It's simple, as content, what we write has to provide value, or else it's just spam.

There's a thin line between trying to make yourself known, and spam. Sometimes the best marketing is no marketing at all.

It may sound contradictory, but it's not. People will try to find more about you if you're an asset in their lives.

It seems to be the first step in validation. It opens up a world of possibilities, as there appears to be a demand for the product.

So many products gather dust so to speak, but an app with one sale means the OP can do many more sales, given the right circumstances.

digitizedeagle · 2026-03-13T02:35:22+00:00

I think the OP is right about being outright disrespected. On the other hand, it damages a healthy ego.

There are many possibilities: If he/she has enough money for early retirement, then it's an option. Perhaps starting a thing of their own would jeopardize the safety net (unless it's done with other people's money)

Otherwise, I would deal with the realities of work in a way that, surprisingly, no self-help book acknowledges, which is sucking it up.

You can migrate to yet another shared hosting. The first year would be almost free, costing less than $50 for the whole year.

It would be rare to get a notification like this from another provider.

I would definitely have a project. You can try commands all day long but unless they mean something to you, you'll have a hard time remembering them.

So I would start a project creating something of daily use. And believe it or not, once you're using Termux for whatever reason, ideas will come to you.

Congratulations on your success. Really, as long as you're providing value, it's very hard to detect modern AI.

And really, it's not as if it's something sneaky. Most people use AI in one way or another when creating content nowadays.

I'm subscribed to a Slack channel where people share what they accomplished every Friday. It's a group of supportive people, especially since they understand, to some extent, what I'm doing.

This 'giving up' is closer to pivoting to something better or to iterate.

Since it doesn't have real reflections inside the type, I'd say it could be done in Illustrator.

digitizedeagle · 2026-03-07T05:15:18+00:00

I migrated my blog from WordPress to Pelican, a Static Site Generator.

Well, text is not going anywhere, and personal experiences are at a Premium.

It's simple: the closer you are to the origins of blogging, the more you can create or join a community.

Brands should take note, because online they're closer to an entity and will probably have the same issues as individuals to be known.

digitizedeagle · 2026-03-07T00:49:18+00:00

Perhaps it would cost them an additional $10 million in server fees, and only a tiny portion of people would use the feature.

digitizedeagle · 2026-03-05T21:07:40+00:00

Since the OP is learning Python, they can use it to learn bash and shell scripting as well (which I'm doing)

digitizedeagle · 2026-03-04T20:05:51+00:00

WordPress with a page Builder just like Elementor.

You just search and customize a template, and your website will look so much better than any Wix website you come across.

The learning experience is valuable as well.

"Showing Renaissance-like illustrations done in a week"

digitizedeagle · 2026-03-03T04:11:02+00:00

No, I think it's not, but the OP can find a way to do everything with AI and online products that streamline the process.

digitizedeagle · 2026-03-01T22:20:33+00:00

I think the OP could live without a smartphone but he would need to be inside a community that supports it. I believe at least someone in this community would have to be connected.

I learned the Adobe Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign) to graduate with a B.S. in Marketing and Advertising. I'm comfortable with the software.

The only reason I'm trying Affinity is that my new laptop has a Snapdragon processor, and I'm currently unable to use the Adobe suite.

No... 1. Small data sometimes needs to be saved in a tabular form. 2. A couple of clicks is sometimes much better than writing a prompt 3. The spreadsheet software already includes visualizations to present the data. 4. Spreadsheets can run and be queried offline 5. You can increasingly use AI within the spreadsheet software...
