I'll participate in discussions on IH and Maker's Kitchen Slack as much as I can.
Makermag is cool. thanks for the tip https://makermag.com/
I will write a blog to submit this weekend too. What's the link for your blog?
It's not published yet on MakerMag, but the post was published on my own blog a while back: https://plausible.io/blog/replacing-google-products
This is great. Actually, it looks very much like what Carter described in the Indielixir podcast on event tracking!
I was fortunate to get into Keen.io back when they had a free tier, but I'd be either looking at paying for or building a product like yours for analytics if I hadn't. There's no we have to be giving all our visitor's browsing information to the Google surveillance machine without even a second thought!
I really hope that in the future IH lets us hook up other data sources, such as Keen or Plausible, for IH products to share traffic instead of requiring Google.
I like your blog. What CMS are you using?
Hey, sorry for replying so late. I wrote the CSS myself, and it's running on Jekyll (hosted with Github pages)

Yesterday was...not my most productive day. Spent a lot of time Yak Shaving trying to prepare for the Pegasus screencast and went down a number of rabbit holes, most of which turned out to be dead ends. Oh well, sometimes that happens...

As most of my activities do not have an immediate impact, I am gonna skip the result part. I will report if there is a significant change in the growth and when I can attribute it to something I did.
👷♀️ I made a new landing page for the podcast that I am about to start. It's super early, but if you want to have a look, here it is...

👷♀️ Still working on a format that works for me.
Look forward to the podcast!
(It should say 'built' instead of 'build' where it says "Learn how software is build on the other side.")
Landing page looks great!

This month I'm working on growing Indie Hackers' milestones feature.
✅ YESTERDAY I rolled out the new "top milestones" emails to about 2% of newsletter subscribers. The goal is to see how people react to the email, whether they like it and click, ignore it, unsubscribe, request changes, etc. I'm going to keep doing this throughout the month until we're at 100%.
🏆 RESULTS are modest so far, as most people haven't received the new email yet. But I'm hoping in the long run we see more people checking out the milestones, upvoting them, and leaving comments.
👷♀️ TODAY I'm going to do a little planning for inviting people who post milestones that the community likes onto the podcast for quick chats. I already sent out one invite, actually!

👷♀️ What are you doing today?
🙏 Where I need help:
So I installed this on a Website using WPBakery Page Builder and it appears to have a css conflict at the front end whenever I activate.
I've released a new version that addresses this and other reported bugs. If you have other issues, please submit here.
Awesome! The bug is gone.
Cool! Would you mind leaving a review? 😊
Sure!
Sorry to hear that. I also use WP Bakery on my website but don't got this conflict. Could you send more details and screenshots to [email protected]?
Alright would do that. Although there are lots of custom css rules I puton the site so it could be a cause.

Day five for Pulsemetrics.io
✅ Can't say I put forth much effort beyond brainstorming yesterday on the 4th, but I sure did have a beautiful patriotic day.
🏆 Visited the Statue of Liberty and saw some sweet, sweet fireworks
👷♀️ Back to work. I'm sending out personalized emails to some of the smaller products on product hunt trying to see if I can get more initial users. Also helping with someone's side project of a dating app, so planning an app launch event for them in two weeks.
The landing page is nice. Really like the color theme. I see that you're using Gatsby. Do you use Gatsby starter or custom made everything yourself?
Most everything is custom made, lucky to have a team of developers at our side!

Up to 89 user accounts.
👷♀️More work on multiplayer!
I noticed that on dev.to you can create listings, may be of interest to some.
What is a listing? Like an ad / personal?
Yes, they have various categories, go have a look. Only relevant really for a dev audience.
