Hey everyone,

We re gearing up for our very first launch on Product Hunt this April 2, and we re incredibly excited about it! It s been a journey filled with hard work, preparation, and anticipation. But as we all know, launching on PH can be unpredictable, and there s always room to learn and improve.

Since the start of the year, over 30 people have approached me about working together only a few actually paid.

The paying clients were straightforward: they booked, paid, and it was done.

The rest asked endless questions and wanted previews, and then disappeared out of nowhere.

I have made a list of platforms where you can create your community and share your knowledge in a closed circle (and in some cases sell memberships).

The list is according to my preferences, so the platforms I use the most are at the top.

@rajiv_ayyangar and I have talked a lot about what applications, devices, and codebases have most influenced our thinking and careers. Photoshop is high on that list for me.
For many years it was the most reliable application I used regularly, bar none. In a world where we just expected the Windows blue screen and the little Mac unhappy icon to happen regularly, Photoshop never crashed. Even though both its feature set complexity and working data set size were much larger than most other apps of the time.
Photoshop was also truly cross platform. It worked the same way on Windows and Mac. This is hard!
It had a plugin system. Indie developers built great extensions for Photoshop.
And it had a credits screen that you saw every time the app loaded, with the names of all the programmers who worked on it!
