Back here after a long while. Who are interesting people to follow?

People of Bluesky, we need your help! Copycat Cafe is launching on ProductHunt today and currently just one spot away from the front page. Which means your support could make all the difference! If you haven't already, go check it out and let us know what you think! Link in comments :)

Mixed feelings about sharing this excellent piece, whose subject might not go down well here. But if you ever wondered where I came from and what I saw in all that, here it is. Thank you, Nur. www.nurbaysal.com/the-end-of-s...

The End of Something

As I sit here in Cyprus, having just moved to a new country for the fourth time in my adult life, I find myself thinking about who I was at 19 - a nerdy, scholarly girl in Germany reading Mises, Rothb...

When it comes to vibe coding... Fast is slow. And slow is fast.

Why is Bluesky so anti AI? I don’t get it. A brand offers a privacy-friendly way to use AI… And most comments just hate it because it’s AI.

Has anyone had success with using swarms of agents, taskmaster etc with Claude Code? Every time I try, I find that giving small, well-defined tasks (aka going slow) beats going fast every time.

Is Test-Driven Development still the best approach when using Claude Code or is it now outdated?

Be honest, does this video suck? I made it quickly before Lorelight's PH launch. To me it sounds kind of embarrassing. My gf thinks it shows a real human touch. The one and only @viperchill.bsky.social thinks my accent sounds cool. So what do you all think? www.loom.com/share/aab1ad...

Introducing Lorelight: AI Brand Monitoring Tool 🚀

In this video, I’m excited to introduce Lorelight, our AI brand monitoring tool designed to give you actionable insights. I walk you through the project creation flow, showing how easy it is to start ...

Lorelight, my SaaS that helps you monitor your brand's AI narrative and find hidden mentions is live on Product Hunt and I would love your support! Could you please click on the link in the comments and check it out! It would mean a lot to me :)

Claude Code fits my workflow perfectly because I spend 90% of my time reading research papers about machine learning and architecting and only 10% implementing. Claude allows me to validate and disprove hypotheses 10 times faster.

Bluesky friends, I need your help! Lorelight is now live on tinystartups.com and it needs to reach the #1 spot! Please upvote and comment on this post for reach! Merci !

I don't know why people say building is the easy part. Even with amazing tools like Claude Code, building Lorelight.ai and getting it to reliably handle entity resolution, enrichment, local AI models etc, has been way harder than marketing so far.

Claude Code is the best thing that ever happened to software engineering. Change my mind.

Between the new DeepSeek R1, Claude 4 etc, there has been a lot of new AI models lately. What is everyone using for coding? I currently use Claude 4 Opus for initial plans, then Sonnet for implementation. But even that is getting expensive. Anyone tried the new DeepSeek?

Me: "I'm tired of language learning, too much competition." Also me: Create Lorelight.ai, a B2B app in one of the hottest niches of 2025: AI search optimization.

I love Zed and @anthropic.com but Claude 4 Sonnet is getting really expensive. Any alternative, almost as good models, that happen to be cheaper? Not necessarily for all tasks but maybe for easier tasks.

Bluesky friends, I need your help! Lorelight, my SaaS helping you monitor your visibility and reputation in ChatGPT is launching on ProductHunt next week. Can you help me spread the work by clicking on the link in bio and clicking "Notify Me"? Merci! :)

Claude 4 just changed my admin password and just prevented me from accessing my own app's admin interface. It's true what they say. AI truly is taking over.

Shipped Lorelight.ai yesterday, and I already have a company eager to try it. During onboarding, I immediately realized I’d neglected one feature and spent too much time on others. That’s why shipping fast is essential, you don’t know what your users will actually care about until you ship.

After 12 years running a B2C SaaS (and plenty of complaining 😅), I finally shipped my first B2B product: lorelight.ai It tracks what ChatGPT, Claude & Gemini say about your brand—so you can catch risks early. Early access is limited to 20 companies. Don’t miss out.

One day before launch, I ripped out half my app’s code. Why? It was too complex, too soon. I want to ship a genuine MVP, learn from real users, then iterate, instead of rolling out a bloated solution I can’t scale.

The AI coding agent rollercoaster. "You're absolutely right. Let's simplify and follow exactly what the documentation states, without any custom files or copying:" 1 minute later: "OK I disregarded everything the docs says and built a custom implementation just for fun."

Vibe coding during the weekend is great. Way fewer overloaded errors from Claude and ChatGPT. Highly recommend.

I don't get people who say AI is not that great. I have built my dream product in 3 weeks start to finish and learned a ton in the process. This would have taken me months without AI. Honestly, it still blows my mind.

Haven't even launched and I have already been contacted by multiple companies eager to try @LorelightAI . Feeling grateful and excited to share it with everyone soon!

Indie hackers are the best. I shared my plan to launch my new SaaS in one week and got so many words of encouragement and people cheering me on. Thank you!

Bluesky, I need your help! My new SaaS Lorelight is almost there (see my profile for more info). Except it has been almost there for a while now... And I want to finally ship it. Can you hold me accountable and make sure I ship on Wednesday next week at the latest?

I feel like many of you have been quiet lately. What are you all building? Personally, I have decided to move away from language learning and build lorelight.ai. Launching soon.

There is a middle ground between shipping a garbage product and never shipping. Shipping fast doesn't mean releasing a bad product, it means releasing an imperfect product you can refine based on customer feedback. Oh and it allows you to not go bankrupt in the process.

Back to work after being away for a while. Which AI models are you all using for coding?
