I woke up today to such a surprise, which only got better during the day: First Internet $1 popular on 🤯 😍 First time I ever experience building something, sharing it, and unknown people from the internet liking it! It's a great feeling. Thank you! ❤️

👥 80+ makers now listed in First Internet $1, yay! Growth ideas: • Write more posts to IH, Reddit, others • Shareability → Better OG image to profile url • Incentivize users to return to the page → share updates on growth • Easier sign-up → login with Twitter Thoughts?

Do you use any geocoding service? Is it good and why? I tried for First Internet $1. I have a tiny script to populate profile info that tries fetching coordinates based on Twitter user location. My criteria: 5min Google search, free tier and simple integration.

A lot of new people found interesting what I shared in the last 2 days. Follower count went 90 → 160 in a blink. Thank you all! 😊 👋 Say hi! Who are you and what are you working on?

Next steps for First Internet $1: 1️⃣ Finalise implementing a simple endpoint (for my own usage first) to automate adding all the fellow makers who DM'd and are waiting patiently 🙏 2️⃣ Come up with the simplest solution in the map to display multiple users in the same city 😅

Automated generation of Typescript types using Supabase CLI. This is top! 🤯 Look away from Supabase for a while, look back → discover so many killer features.

Great to go through all the responses here - so many new Figma shortcuts learned 🤓 It's funny that probably most of these shortcuts are listed in Figma next to the menu elements, but as users we are so blind to those.

What was the @figma feature or shortcut that took you too long to discover? For me it was the scale key 🙈
