ibuildinpublic is live 🥳
If you build in public, you deserve a home that isn't the void.
Post your build. Ask for help. Get seen.
Grab your page before your name is gone.

I just crossed 9K followers on X.
I asked Grok Bot to analyze the locations of my followers (the ones who share them).
Apparently, people from 127 countries are following this random guy building stuff on the internet.
127 COUNTRIES. 🤯
I wish I could buy you all a coffee and thank you personally.
Thank you for being part of this journey. I genuinely mean it. ❤️
it’s 3 AM here.
after a full day of building and marketing, i’m going to sleep.
let’s see if when i wake up tomorrow, i’ll be a 9k follower account for the first time in my life. 😂
my 3 most recurring questions these days:
1. how much AI usage do i have left before hitting the limit?
2. why did i open this tab?
3. does my wife know how much i’m spending on infra and tools?
building a business is emotionally exhausting.
we all carry uncertainty, fear, and the pressure to make things work.
check on a builder today. encourage them. remind them they’re not alone in this journey. ❤️
if you told someone in 2016 that:
in 10 years, on a saturday night, you'd be orchestrating agentic workflows through claude to autonomously scaffold an app using natural language, MCP servers, and context-aware LLMs...
he'd understand absolutely nothing in that sentence except "saturday night".
People keep asking me why they should leave X and use another social platform like iBuildInPublic.com.
I could give you a hundred reasons, but here's just one.
A few days ago, a builder published a post on iBuildInPublic.
Here's what happened:
> He got lots of sales from that single post.
> The post received 171 impressions, 19 likes, and 13 comments.
> He has just 9 followers on iBuildInPublic.
Tell me this is possible on X, and I'll shut down iBuildInPublic instantly.
Success formula for builders (2026 and beyond):
Listen to your wife.
Listen to your body.
Listen to your users.

I’ve known Maya (@buildwithmaya) for a while, and she’s doing a great job building a podcast for builders with BuildingNow. 🎙️
Happy to share that you can now watch her podcast episodes directly on iBuildInPublic!
One more way to help builders discover and learn from each other.
I left my corporate job after 14 years.
Now I'm building my own product, raising a daughter, and living far from my family.
I miss my family. Sometimes, I even miss the security of my 9-to-5.
You can love your new life and still miss your old one...right?
Looking for feedback on your product?
Try a feedback swap: find another builder, give each other honest feedback, and both win.
You can do this easily on iBuildInPublic.com.
Go to Sidebar → Feedback Swap, find builders, get matched, and start swapping feedback.
Simple.

I'm giving iBuildInPublic.com’s most active users another layer of visibility.
The top 50 appear on the landing page, and ranks 51–100 appear on the auth pages.
Every avatar is clickable.
Do you see yourself or any familiar faces? 👀
I just crossed 8,800 followers on X. ❤️
It took me 323 days.
And you know the funny part?
After my first 2 months on X, I almost quit.
I had just 120 followers and barely any impressions on my posts.
Imagine if I had stopped there. 😅
People keep asking me if iBuildInPublic.com is free.
Short answer: YES. Many features are free, and they’ll stay that way forever.
The longer answer: Premium unlocks more features and higher usage limits. And there’s a LOT more coming to the platform.
One thing, though…
Running a product at this scale isn’t easy or cheap.
So if you find iBuildInPublic useful, or simply want to support a community built by a solo builder, consider upgrading.
It really helps me keep building. ❤️
