One of the greatest joys of bootstrapping is punching way above your weight. Building stuff that most assume was built by a team of hundreds. Shipping insanely fast. Competing directly against giant incumbents. Proving the naysayers wrong.

Sending raw <svg> over Telegram was the level of hardcore I needed to see today.
The real trick to Good Design™ is to be so aggressively mid at design that @jasonlbeggs texts you fixes, unprompted. Big brain stuff.

At its best, marketing is a transfer of enthusiasm. When you're truly pumped about what you're doing, when you're truly driven by the vision, when you absolutely must make something that you need and want, your enthusiasm leaves a mark. It's a brand. Not the noun, but the verb.
