We extended our landing page (datastripes.com) integrating a 60 seconds full free version of our app. But, is it a good idea?

Everyone tells you to ship fast. Move fast and break things. Get to market before someone else does.

I believed this for a long time. When we were building Murror, speed was everything. We pushed features weekly, sometimes daily. We celebrated every deploy like a small victory.

We went live on X, hit 200k+ views: https://x.com/gauravsbuilding/st...
But I have a feeling we can do better on LinkedIn, what's your experience?https://www.linkedin.com/posts/g...?

Hey everyone

I m Elvis. I ve got a background in computer science and systems integration, and I ve always been the kind of person who wants to know what s actually going on under the hood.

Lately I ve been building for macOS, mostly around privacy and network visibility. I wasn t really happy with what s out there, so I decided to build something that felt better.

Tools like Little Snitch are powerful, but they can get overwhelming fast. You re hit with constant prompts and technical details, and most people just end up clicking allow to move on, which kind of defeats the purpose. On the other side, LuLu is simpler but can be a bit rough, with people running into things like apps hanging or network issues.

I was on a call with a founder and they asked me to turn on my camera on Google Meet.

I said no citing that they have brought in the call recorder without my consent. I consent for voice recording and summarizing, not video capture.

Let me start from the creator s perspective:
I personally don t have a product (apart from hiring people for creative work or offering personal consultations).

But as a creator, I constantly share content, insights, and information, value that helps me build trust (for free). Based on that perceived expertise, people eventually decide to work with me (a paid service).
