I'm doing an AMA on @IndieHackers.
Drop some questions in there! Happy to answer anything, esp around building side projects with a full-time job :)

Super fun and rewarding to write all these answers. What I love about this AMA is that it basically outlines a ton of blog posts and YouTube video ideas!

2/ For all my new followers (will get to that in a sec) I do a revenue & traffic #openstartup report every month for my main side project https://t.co/nkcmLxsSra
I've been working on this project for nearly a full year.
3/ Biggest thing that happened this month was obviously the 24 hour startup!
I won't talk about it too much in this thread, but after that happened everything just blew up. I'm still trying to catch up on everything and keep my head above water.
4/ All of this craziness sparked a big decision for me.
I QUIT MY JOB! 😁😅
I know it sounds kind of crazy to quit your job over that, but as I was heading into my 1:1 with my manager it just felt like I had to do it. It felt like the right thing to do.
5/ I had planned to grow SS for 6 more months and then quit, but then the 24 hour startup happened and it felt like it was the right moment to quit.
