I am curious: What do you folks use for building? What programming language? What framework (if you use one)? Where do you deploy? What's great and what is still too painful?

I've been working on a job board (in French) for years now: https://remotefr.com I tried to monetize it with premium job offers—it didn't work. I also tried to create a newsletter (1500 subscribers) and monetize it with premium content, but it also failed($50 MRR not growing). What should I do next? In my head, I have 3 options: - Sell it - but as I don't have revenues, the price will be super low. - Try new sources of income, like affiliation? - Let it die slowly What would you do?

Did any of you listen / watch the chat Pieter had with Lex? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFtjKbXKqbg Did you learn something new or find new ways to improve your pipeline? I enjoyed watching their journey & understanding a coder's perspective as I'm more of a designer / business-side working with devs on web apps.

I don't use much TikTok, however from what I have seen the TikTok algorithm gives quickly a chance to every new account, unlike a new YouTube account which usually has a very slow start. So I give it a try today. Here are some technical aspects: 1/ You can easily download a YouTube video of copyrighted content. You can legally use some snippets under the fair use doctrine it if you use it for educational purpose for example. I have used claude.ai to make a python script to download a YouTube video. 2/ to edit the video I have used Adobe Premiere Pro which is easy to learn, I guess there are free software alternatives but I don't remember the name right now. 3/ I have generated the voice over with the AWS Polly console. AWS Polly can now add emotions to the voice, if AWS Polly thinks it's adapted to a specific sentence. If you don't know how to write a text for a voice over ChatGPT can help. 4/ When You upload your video with the TikTok App, TikTok can generate the captions from the voice over, these auto-generated captions will be centered in the video. As you can see, all these steps are not time consuming, even more if you consider that for TikTok you are supposed to make short videos to reach a wider audience. Here are the link to the TikTok video I have quickly made today to promote my website teasertrove.com => "Did You know that for Godzilla..." https://www.tiktok.com/@teaser452/video/7392888111971290374

I've been noticing a lot of success stories with autogenerated videos lately (like @Ayush Chaturvedi awesome example here). I just saw on X that Upen is creating YouTube videos in just 3 minutes 🤯! Here is the tweet: Upen's Method Here is the formula by Greg Isenberg: 1. Scriptwriting: Use ChatGPT or Claude for drafts, refine them until they sound human. I personally prefer Claude. 2. Visual designs: Use DALL-E 2 to generate thumbnails and graphics 3. Video production: Use Crayo.ai for quick and easy pro-level video creation 4. Voiceovers: Use ElevenLabs for AI narration that doesn’t sound like robots (or use it to clone your voice) 5. Optimization: Use VidIQ or Mr. Beast’s ViewStats for keyword research and channel optimization. I also enjoy using VidIQ to check most popular questions on other videos which gives me content ideas.
