How much did you engagement with other content creators with audience overlap?
Sveta Bay
@jas801 didn't catch the question. But for engagement, I usually spend most of the time in comments to my tweets now. I wish I had 1 extra hour to engage with other creators πŸ˜„

What do you mean by focus on your experience, not on the theory?
Sveta Bay
@aaronoleary good question! There're a lot of threads on Twitter describing some theoretical aspects. But the thing is that personal experience works much better cause this information is unique. Theoretical thread: how to conduct a usability test in 10 steps. Thread based on personal experience: My 10 learnings from conducting a usability test. The second one works X10 better πŸš€
