A new start blog for 2024
At the end of 2023 I started working on a new project called Vintas, a simple hiring platform for remote teams. Initially I shared a few thoughts on Twitter and Threads, but I quickly ran into the same problems I always do when sharing anything on those platforms.
The algorithms are unpredictable. Sometimes lots of people see your posts, sometimes nobody does. The character limits are frustrating. Sharing anything that isn't shortform sucks, and threaded replies don't work well.
So I'm moving here instead. A simple custom Ghost blog, where I can share content of any length - and 100% of people who subscribe, will receive each post.
Spent the past 10 years hiring for @Ghost and I've tried dozens of different hiring platforms for tracking job applications. They're all bloated mega-corp/enterprise nonsense. So I'm building my own, mostly for fun!
