... everyone, I m Silas Lee. I m an indie developer behind Tidemason. Over the past months, I built too many things in private: apps, prototypes, landing pages, tools, and experiments.

I recently did a reset: - archived old experiments - cleaned up my domains - kept only Tidemason as my public lab - started focusing on distribution and user feedback earlier Right now I m learning how to build smaller, talk to users sooner, and create ... ... forward to learning from everyone here. If you ve ever gone through a reset like this, I d love to hear how you handled it.

... community, I'm Silas, an indie hacker building tools at Launch System Lab.

Happy to share early access with anyone curious to try it. Comment from Silas
