Note #15

I added a new project to my website called Quitting social media, where I share notes on my work-in-progress path to freedom from social media.

It’s unfortunately not as simple as it might sound—hence a project and not a note—which you can read more about on the project page.

Would love to hear from others struggling with the same thing!

Note #14

Balance is the sponsor of this week’s issue of Dense Discovery (opens in new tab)!

It’s one of very few newsletters I subscribe to, and I’ve been a reader for years. Happy to support Kai’s great work.

It’s also the first ever ad I run for Balance, as I try to ramp up my marketing efforts for the app.
