How on earth do all this indie hackers get anything done if they’re twitting all day about it? 🤔
I’ve never managed to gain traction on Twitter. It’s just not my thing. I like it, I hang around for a while there, and after some time, I find I don’t have that much to say, or it doesn’t sound interesting when I say it out loud, and I go wonder about some other place of the internet.
The truth is, I spend most of my time in localhost. There is so much to do, that having really interesting things to talk about, sounds quite hard.
But AI seems to think differently, this is Notion AI completing the above text:
If you're struggling with coming up with interesting content to share on Twitter, here are a few ideas to get you started:
- Share industry news and insights - this can be a great way to position yourself as an expert in your field.
- Ask questions - Twitter is a great platform for starting conversations. Ask your followers for their opinions or advice on a particular topic.
- Share behind-the-scenes content - give your followers a glimpse into your day-to-day work or your creative process.
- Share your own blog posts or articles - if you have a blog or write for other publications, share your work on Twitter to reach a wider audience.
- Share other people's content - if you come across an interesting article or blog post that you think your followers would enjoy, share it on Twitter.
Remember, the key to increasing engagement on Twitter is to provide value to your followers. Whether it's through sharing interesting content or starting conversations, focus on building a community and providing value, and the engagement will follow.
However, it's important to remember that social media can be a great way to connect with others in your industry and to share your work with a wider audience. Instead of focusing on Twitter as a way to constantly promote your work, try to use it as a tool to engage with others and share interesting resources or insights related to your field. By focusing on building relationships and adding value to the community, you may find that Twitter becomes a more meaningful part of your online presence.
It's totally understandable that you haven't been able to gain traction on Twitter. It can be a difficult platform to navigate, and not everyone feels comfortable expressing themselves in 280 characters or less. It's great that you've recognized that it's just not your thing, and that you prefer to spend your time on other pursuits.
In fact, it's important to find the social media platform (or platforms) that work best for you and your interests. There are so many out there, and they all have their own unique features and communities. Maybe you'll find that you prefer Instagram, with its focus on visual content and storytelling. Or perhaps you'll find a niche community on Reddit that aligns with your interests.
And there's absolutely nothing wrong with spending most of your time in localhost. After all, getting things done is what really matters. It can be so easy to get caught up in the social media rat race, constantly comparing ourselves to others and feeling like we're not doing enough. But at the end of the day, the only person you need to impress is yourself.
Who knows, maybe one day you'll stumble upon something so interesting that you just have to share it on Twitter. And if not, that's okay too. The most important thing is that you're doing what makes you happy and fulfilled.
It seems after a few attempts, Notion AI becomes more understanding and just quits trying to convince me that I can still do great at Twitter! As if doing well at Twitter was something.
The main point being, this AI thing is certainly going to be a revolution – as blockchain was – but we’re still to see where exactly does that revolution properly develop.
In this case, we can easily see how AI is not really trained to provide meaningful content. But does a really great job providing content. It’s worth noting how Notion AI seems really focused on content that has been written in Notion. This might be a disadvantage and something that pushes you towards using another unified AI system even if you have to do so out of Notion.
