Getting so sick of:

"I got tired of [app] so I 'killed it' and created [shitty AI clone]"

No. You wasted > $200 in tokens creating slop hoping to make gains from copying the hard work of others.

Creating software is cheap. Maintaining it is not. Maintaining quality is everything.

So many devs and designers are scared right now about the value of their skills. If you ask me the value of being a good designer or engineer has never been higher.

Quality is what sets you apart.

with all due respect, this is a crazy take

not free = horrible???

we really need to slow down on the entitlement of expecting free stuff. you can't compare small startups to multi-billion dollar organisations

oH bUt ThEy rAisEd 30M
bro. 1) 30M is nothing. 2) as a small startup you gotta prove product-market fit or you die. you won't do that by giving everything away for free

anthropic can afford 80B in losses alone and they're still in a good place

if you want a product built by a small team who actually, genuinely cares about what they're building, reach for your wallet. it's that simple

you're spending more on your matchas with almond milk anyway

love cloudflare btw

Asked my wife to describe @raycast and she described it as 'The thing that pops up and does stuff'.

@thomaspaulmann I think we found our new website headline?

Unlimited notes on free plan and images in notes, what else should we add to notes?

Raycast Verified account @raycast Oct 28

In this week's release, we've added support for images in Notes!

We've also removed the 5 note limit on the free plan.

Plus:
↕️ Drag to reorder list items
☑️ ⌘-click to check nested items
🙈 Hide While Screen Sharing is back (macOS 27)

Enjoy!
