Hard to imagine a less sympathetic group than companies who complain about how hard it is to hire devs while forcing their devs back into the office 5 days a week...
Going back through my newsletter archives, here are a few of my favorite open source projects, a running 🧵:

@DuffieldJesse
, turn USBs/online storage into HP horcruxes (no single horcrux can resurrect your file but multiple can)
@RyanKHere
@Harris_Bryan
Early on posting in forums, encouraging word of mouth among friends and subscribers, cheap ads on reddit and quora, asking to be included on lists of newsletters in your niche
@smknstd
@tldrnewsletter
Considering making some tweaks with formatting etc., but I generally try to avoid over-editorializing. I plan on starting a podcast sometime later this year where I may be a bit more opinionated!

If I sold all my sponsorship slots it would be 252k a year (it only goes out on weekdays) but the rest checks out, infra costs are super low maybe like $400-500 a month mostly from Amazon SES.

I have no idea who that is, but if it would make you more comfortable you can subscribe to TLDR through a specific email address like francesconapoletano+tldr
@gmail
.com or something so you can tell where your email is leaking from.
@tomglover24
Thanks for the heads up, that was a problem with my email sending software (I think their servers went down so everything that went to got errors). Should be working now!

@sachitgupta
@Harris_Bryan

@tldrnewsletter
That one is at , that was the original name (we might change the endpoint at some point to be web-dev but haven't gotten around to it)!
@aaronpaulkelly
Every weekday, I switched the format this week so the archives aren't being updated correctly at the moment, you can see the latest one here:
@napolux
@tldrnewsletter
To explicitly answer your question, yes it is a coincidence, I don't give the email addresses out to anyone and I proactively unsubscribe anyone who hasn't opened the emails for a couple of months.
@illohifeoma
@Harris_Bryan
About an hour, I have the process pretty streamlined at this point. Don't batch produce, find new stuff everyday. Demographics come from Google Analytics on "Thank you for signing up" page!
@pauldm
@Harris_Bryan
@IndieHackers
If anybody has more questions, I'm happy to write another article on any of these points. Thinking about writing one on how to effectively run Reddit and Quora ads to get cheap leads.

@chddaniel
Ideas for reinvesting that worked for me:
Remarketing ads are pretty low hanging fruit once you have the funds and enough traffic to be worth it.

Put the rest in $VT index fund.
