Stability isn't glamorous. It's earned. "A 99.5% crash-free rate isn't luck, it's a hundred small decisions made right." Every uneventful night in prod is a decision you made weeks ago. Share this with that person you know needs to see it; also, save this for later. β€” Life : Compiled, Day 4 #LifeCompiled #BuildInPublic

If you're a Nigerian developer, whether you're just starting out or you've been building for years, there's so much you can build and learn with homegrown technologies πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬β€οΈ We have: πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬ @Dbrij_hq & @pxxl_space instead of Vercel for hosting. πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬ @StackshiftCloud for VPS hosting and management, as an alternative to providers like Hostinger and tools like Coolify. πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬ @Dbrij_hq & @sendly_ai_ instead of Resend for business and transactional emails. πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬ @cencori instead of OpenRouter and Cloudflare AI Gateway for AI model access and management. πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬ Sabilytics.com instead of Google Analytics and DataFast for website analytics. πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬ @OutRayTunnel for tunnelling local services, as an alternative to tools like ngrok and Cloudflare Tunnel. πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬ @Bachs_hq for international payments, as an alternative to Stripe. And these are just the ones I can remember right now! I'm not saying you must stop using international tools. I'm saying we have people right here building alternatives worth trying, supporting, and contributing to. With better local pricing that fits us. I know I'm missing so many other products. What other Nigerian-built products and their global alternatives should be on this list? Drop them in the replies! πŸ‘‡ And if you're building something in Nigeria or anywhere across Africa, please submit your project to Africa Is Building so more people can discover what you're working on ❀️ africaisbuilding.com/submit

Past couple months we’ve quietly overhauled our entire onboarding funnel at @CashApp. β†’ More ways in. P2P, Neighborhoods, Tags, soon Borrow. β†’ Shorter, faster flows based on where you came in. β†’ ML-powered next best actions to drive activation. Not the sexiest work, but really really matters.

Small ships. Often. On purpose. "Ship small. Ship often. Ship like your crash-free rate depends on it, because it does." Your crash-free rate is a habit, not an accident. β€” Life : Compiled #LifeCompiled #BuildInPublic
