So I don't do any link building at all as part of my SEO. All of my sites seem to have a pretty similar trend in Ahrefs, though. Aware that 90+% of these are likely spammy links. Anyone else seeing similar trends? Did all the spammy link sites stop churning at the same time?
I've analysed hundreds of apps now using appissuemap.com and the same issues keep coming up. - Excessive Ads detracting from User Experience - Frustration with subscription models and misleading pricing across apps - Frustration with upselling and limited free features

Guess I'll be updating all of my apps to work with the iPhone Duo this week. expo.dev/changelog/sd... This seems like a huge update for Expo aside from the iOS 27 support.

The running equivalent of "really not feeling it" going into "this feels great" Are exponential negative splits a thing?
Happy parkrun day to those that celebrate. Today I'm off to play in the mud at Croxteth Hall.

My fitness app has been on one hell of a journey over the last 6 months 😖 Rebrand because of trademark fun 🔥 A new brutalist-style redesign (What was I thinking with that blue!) 100 workouts logged in the app this year just from me. I think it might be time to launch soon!
I've been completely out of it with running since doing my first Ultramarathon in May. For some reason, I woke up early today and felt like doing one of my favourite and hardest sessions. 8x sprint intervals, ramping up in speed. Road to sub-20 5k might be back on!
I can think of worse places I've done my payroll run from. Absolutely loving this Mac Neo too! It's been great for doing the odd check in when I've needed it while on holiday.
Absolute winner of a day. I give it an hour before I have to go and seek shade because I can't handle the sun.
🚨 SetReps has to fully rebrand. Got an email this morning from someone who owns the trademark SetRep in the fitness space. Tried to pivot it and approach an acquisition of the trademark and assets, but they're not up for it. Gutted, I really liked that name too! #buildinpublic
As an app user (not as a developer, which most of us are) Which process would you prefer? - Free app, no time constraints on usage, basic ads around the app, pay a small fee to remove ads permanently - Free app, 7-day trial, small fee to unlock the full app after the trial
So it appears that I pulled my chest during yesterday's workout. Thought I was having a heart attack for a second. Realised I probably should have stretched for a while before working out. Anyway... that's now a new feature in the @setreps.app 🤣 #BuildInPublic
Well, this just changes everything for me in MyFitnessPal. Top-tier feature this.
I got tired of manually reading competitors' lowest-rated app reviews. I built a small tool that automates this for me. 🙌🏻 It collects low reviews from App Store & Google Play, then uses AI to find patterns and rank the pain points. Only took a few hours to build. #buildinpublic
Weighted Lunges are the worst leg exercise ever. Absolutely hate that the @setreps.app decided to throw that into my leg workout today. 🤣 Could just delete that exercise 🤣

Nearly 100k lifted so far by SetReps test users. I'll get that over the line later. 💪🏻 Testing is going well, added new features and some performance tweaks. My to-do list is much smaller now, it's nearly ready for launch! Promoting launch to the end of Feb.
The @setreps.app is getting closer to launch!! I've been using it for a month now and started noticing some design inconsistencies, so I've taken a screenshot of absolutely every screen in the app. I can easily see what needs tweaking next from this! #buildinpublic
Bought a new camera to test out for some content creation. Will eventually use this for my app's videos, too. How did I do? www.tiktok.com/@shanefromse... I'm well outside of my comfort zone filming stuff like this.
Should probably do some running as part of this #ultramarathontraining #running #workout #ducks #insta360

I'm a few days into creating content for TikTok and I now have a newfound respect for people that don't daily. This is a real grind to get things edited and published. If you're active over there see what you think of my first videos and give me a follow 😋 ⬇️⬇️
Three iterations of the same screen in my fitness app. 1️⃣ Initial wireframe idea (top section planned for video). 2️⃣ Updates after real workout use exposed friction. 3️⃣ Refined after sharing and getting feedback. Much happier now. It’s starting to feel like a real app! #buildinpublic
That'll do for now for the homescreen tweaks. Looks a little bit better. Those icons just didn't fit. I think I need to spend more time researching app designs. Absolutely procrastinated while doing this work and ended up creating a "Side Quests" mode. #BuildInPublic
5 workouts over 2 weeks logged in my app now. I think another week and it'll have plenty of data for my algorithm to start learning things. Absolutely taking the weekend off training, as the app recommends, and will be redesigning the home screen. #buildinpublic
I thought I was being clever by using a single-screen layout, advancing each exercise set as a new screen. It started to annoy me during last night's workout. So naturally, I've redesigned it to a single screen.🤣 Testing that on this evening's workout. #buildinpublic
Today in "What am I doing with this Fitness App?" I've created a small tool that uses ReMotion to generate some daily videos. Sharing these on socials like this to try and build up the socials Example in the comment below - Yesterday's video went 🚀 on TikTok #buildinpublic
Just spent the last 30 mins trying to work out why a decimal won't store in the database. Field was set as int4 🤣 That's me done for the day. 10 hours of work has cooked me.

Added some weekly review screens, which users can swipe through every Monday to see their progress. Really need to start thinking about the designs now that I have all the data collected for the screens. 🤣 #buildinpublic
