99% of people (me included) use Twitter as a consumer, very few as a creator.
I wanted to change that for myself, so I took the course “From consumer to creator” by @AlexLlullTW & @AlexMaeseJ
Here are my five main takeaways and what I think about the course:

For a few days, I have had this weird bug that I'm constantly getting logged out of @webflow
Is anyone experiencing the same or has in the past? 🤔
Wanna build an audience on Twitter?
Ask yourself: What are my passions? Where lie my interests?
Then take action. Figure out what sticks and what doesn't.
Repeat, this is an ongoing process.

The course is live, time to go through it!
Will write a lil review afterwards ✌️ https://xcancel.com/dominikhofer_/status/1525439735585456129
Do I know anyone who is a subscriber to Setapp? Wondering if the subscription is worth it compared to buying the most essential apps (like Clean my Mac) separately 🤔
If you use todo lists frequently, quickly fill out this form 👇 https://t.co/74uTQem2Xt
Already two people submitted great videos to indocus. I know it doesn't sound like a lot, but it makes me really happy to see people contributing to my project 🤗
If you've come across a great Youtube documentary recently, suggest it here as well 👉 http://indocus.site
Some personal news:
Today was my first day in a communication agency 🥳
After nearly 4 years in the financial industry, I'm really excited for this next chapter. Now onto learning new stuff and growing!
@DanSafkow
Hey 👋
Thank you very much for submitting a Youtube video to indocus! I just added it to the site 👉 http://indocus.site
If you come across other great videos, feel free to submit them as well.
Thanks for helping to keep indocus awesome & growing 🥳
Just found out about @AnytypeLabs, an operating system for life. Looks like a solid Notion alternative and even more.
Really excited to try it out, once I get access!
Am I the only one who sometimes feels more productive just working from my MacBook without any external display? Pretty strange feeling…
Anyone else?
CMD + E is easily the most powerful shortcut I've learned in Webflow.
Watch how quickly you can add some basic elements to a page 👇
What's your favorite shortcut?

TIL that you can easily create “zoom in” videos like this natively on macOS.
Simply go to your accessibility settings and enable “Use scroll gesture with modifier keys to zoom” under the “zoom” option.
H/t to @tdinh_me for sharing this!
My first product indocus is live on @ProductHunt 🥳🥳
Go check it out and let me know what you think about it!

My Youtube liked playlist is like a time capsule. By going through the videos, I see what I was interested in during past times.
Hope my Twitter account will be the same in the future.
Tired of overused Google fonts but buying fonts is too expensive?
Check out @fontshare_com, “a free fonts service by @itfoundry, making quality fonts accessible to all.”
One of my personal favorites is Switzer, might use it for my personal branding.
Just installed @raycastapp on my Mac. After playing around with it for a few minutes, I think Alfred is a thing of the past.
There are many great web design inspo sites out there, but I think I've just found the best one: @godlywebsite
Beautifully curated and new sites every day.
The new @framer looks really promising 👀
Seems to be even simpler than Webflow which is great news for no-coders!
On an additional note, looks like their previous main product Framer X is gone...
Things 3 without the sidebar on Mac is just such a beautifully designed app. It's exactly the minimalist aesthetic that I dig🤩
.@Spotify seems to have gotten rid of that weird ”play in shuffle mode“ button in playlists.
You can now toggle the shuffle mode individually right next to the play button.
Like it :)
The @typefully drafts feature has become my go-to way for jotting down quick ideas I randomly get or pick up.
It forces me to articulate them in just one Tweet. And I have the possibility to tweet them later on.
Pro tip: Save the progressive web app on your phone's home screen.
I've always struggled with finishing the projects I started. That needs to change.
So I set myself up for a challenge: Over the course of the next 7 days, I'm gonna plan, design, build & launch my first product!
Follow along in this ongoing thread 👇
(RTs appreciated, thanks!)
Sharing your progress in public is a skill that has to be learned. I find it especially difficult to post about the "boring" stuff cause I always think it doesn't interest anyone anyways…
How are you dealing with this feeling?🤔
TIL that @webflow has a contrast checker built-in right in the color picker. Very handy and great to see that attention to detail!
App tip of the day: @getmatterapp
With the latest 2.0 update, it really is the read later app that I've always wanted: Clean & minimalist design, various integrations, unlimited highlights.
Time to ditch Instapaper👋
Constantly switching between @evernote and @NotionHQ for building my #secondbrain. I like the search aspect of Evernote and that you can create new notes quite easily. On the other hand, databases are such a handy feature in Notion.
Aaargh... Anyone else experiencing this?🤔
Having less choices is often times more of a blessing than a curse.
It's the same with creativity, the more constraints the better the result. Usually.
Ran my first race yesterday 🥳
Quite happy with the result, now on to the next challenge!
Hey @typefully, just wanted to let you know, that in the “Tweeted” view, the Tweets are only sorted by day and month but not by year. See the screenshot below.
Just preordered the “from consumer to creator”-course by @AlexLlullTW & @AlexMaeseJ. What excites me the most is that it's only 1 hour's worth of content so you can get started right away.
Really looking forward to the launch and taking Twitter more seriously!

I'm gonna start what I call a public idea scrapbook.
In this ongoing thread, I'll share my (crappy) project ideas as I get them, raw and unfiltered. Leave your feedback or build them yourself.
1 tweet = 1 idea
Let's go👇

Usually not a big fan of these self help threads but this one was really good 👇 https://xcancel.com/JoeHolka/status/1524397041048297473
Really like the @Spotify enhanced playlist feature! It kinda makes your playlists feel more like radios. Already discovered some great songs with it 🙌
One of my pet peeves is deleting all the query parameters from an url before sharing it.
Gotta keep them urls clean💆🏻♂️
The new landing page for http://song.pics is coming along very nicely. Really dig these colors 👀
Really dig this button style I came up with for http://song.pics 🤩
Just finished the @vercel http://nextjs.org/learn tutorial, one of the best pieces of docs/learning resources I've ever came across. Gives a broad overview over what the framework has to offer, which makes it easier to dive into the real docs.

I wonder if I should maybe use this opportunity and use Next.js instead of Nuxt this time to get a deep dive into React. 🤔
Do you happen to know any great resources to get started with Next? https://xcancel.com/dominikhofer_/status/1516719778815172609
Brushed up my Vue 3 skills a bit by following a great tutorial by @_EarthIsSquare
Now onto continuing to build http://song.pics 〰
