Mindie is one of the first that comes to mind.It was a short form music video app, pre-Musically and TikTok. I made ~100 mindies and admired how the constraints led to so much creativity.

I love the idea of translating writing across mediums.That said, the drawings/images feel a little clipart-y and less memorable than human-made illustrations. But I realize it's early!

I wish Product Hunt was around longer so we had more nerdy, tech archeology to explore.

I remember hearing about Supabase from @kevinrose a loooong time ago. You've done well since then. :)Not a product question but: What's been the biggest surprise building the co so far?

I don't really understand why but creative! haha

The canvas and branching tree-like inquiry is unique.Just asked rabbithole about Product Hunt's origins. :)

Good recs, Karan. I enjoy Patrick O'Shaughnessy's Invest Like the Best.

I prefer walk and talks but often need to show my face on a call, especially when meeting founders for the first time. I still wouldn't use this for most calls as it feels somewhat deceptive, but maybe social norms will change.

Is it 2017!?

Clever idea, @rexanwong! I've always been a fan of companies that lower the barrier of creation, particularly around sharing stories and ideas. This is why I was such a big fan of Medium when it launched.

I don't know why I like the this tagline so much

Warm take: Investing in a dark (and light) mode is a waste of time 99.9% of the time. ;)

I could use this. I have ~50 hours of footage from childhood, completely unorganized.

Omg, love the tagline "Turn PDFs into brainrot videos".

I'm very interested to see how music evolves when it's endless and hyper personalized. What's on the roadmap, @zain_shoten?

Ha! Love this. Request for first version: AIM.

Reminds me of Cappuccino!

I ocassionally do a DEXA scan to get my exact measurements and monitor alignment. I can't imagine this is very accurate in measuring things like body fat % though. Curious to learn how it works, @souka_ina. :)

We're seeing more companies build AI/synthetic personas for this type of feedback vs. real people. What are your thoughts on this approach, @rupgo?

I think more software companies should experiment with expensive tiers. Some people with big pockets are very price insensitive. :)
