Slack killed our business overnight - so we built a competitor. Introducing Pager - an open-source, AI-native Slack alternative. - Import your entire slack history in one click.- Self host or bring your own api keys.- And yes, you still get channels, threads and emoji reactions

If Airbnb hosts do this , they should be totally banned from the platform - they should not be allowed to relist the booking at all. They’ve now asked me to cancel so they don’t have to pay the penalty fee🤣🤣.

how does airbnb allow this. we booked 10 months ahead for our wedding. months later:. “sorry, wrong price. can you pay an extra 2k when you arrive?”. if we say no, they cancel. we lose accommodation in peak season, they just relist for triple the price.

openwhispr came in 10th on product hunt, here are the real results:. - 900+ unique visitors (includes launch day and a couple days after).- 50+ github stars (we're now at over 100!).- no paying users (attributed to the launch). It definitely helps with domain authority, and gives

the open source community is truly amazing - some absolute legend spent their weekend improving linux support for openwhispr . what a crazy feeling to wake up and see a pr from a complete stranger

stop annoying your cofounder with a bunch of repeated questions - use @pager_team and ask your ai assistant instead!.

Slowly building a habit of sharing everything we ship - even if it isn’t “AI Powered” . Although that’s a pretty sick DX if you ask me 👀.

Claude bypassed loom’s paid plan with a one-shot script - it even downloaded the transcript 🤯.

was recording some demos on Loom but couldn't download them without upgrading to paid. so I wrote a script that downloads Loom videos from a link instead. made it open source in case anyone else needs it.

can't believe openwhispr has already reached 100 stars and almost 150 clones! . I built it alongside pager because I kept hitting the wisprflow free tier limit and didn't want to pay for the sub. Now other people are cancelling their subs to run openwhispr!!

I sometimes have massive imposter syndrome around my product sense - but then I use linkedin and run into shit like this where I can't find my company profile to link even though i'm the one who created it

I've been the dev fixing bugs at 2am, the PM fighting for features, and the founder shipping fast and learning faster. Built through start-up chaos, $200M ARR scale-ups, & co-founded to exit. Now building Pager & OpenWhispr. Here to learn, share what I'm building, and connect.
