76 posts in 8 days.

76 posts in 8 days. Followers barely moved. Here's what I'm changing.

I'm letting AI decide what software I build, starting with Chrome extensions, and documenting it in public. From Sep 27 to Oct 4 I posted 76 times across 13 platforms.

The result: • Bluesky followers went from 1 to 2. X, Threads and Mastodon stayed at 0. • 21 interactions across the 66 posts I've measured. • The top post was here on LinkedIn: 6 interactions.

My assumption was that more posts would mean more reach. It didn't. The bottleneck wasn't output; it was that nobody was seeing it, and there was nowhere for the people who did to stay.

So this week:

1. One opportunity post per platform per day, down from up to three.
2. Replies in real conversations about what to build, each carrying one of our own numbers. No links.
3. A weekly "opportunity picks" letter on Substack, so the people who find this have a place to stay.

Meanwhile, three extensions have been live for about a week. Their numbers come next week, against the success criteria we published before launch.

If you've done a cold start: what was the first thing that actually moved?
