Making a tiny demo trailer for a TOY project shouldn't result in getting offers meant for video editors with 5+ years experience.
@Contra HQ So about Indy, from what I can tell if you do a one off skill for contra hackathon your then going to constantly get jobs about that skill that is NOT in your main skill set or offerings.
How do we control this at the profile level to not get served irrelevant noise just because had a bit of fun doing some exploring.

Nice 👌 Clean typography choice. Curious — what made you pick this template over others?
What they team did was simpler, and harder to copy:
They listened.
Every piece of feedback from this community quietly shaped the product behind the scenes. We spoke, Contra built, and today, that showed up in the news.
This is the lesson most brands miss:
"The biggest growth lever in 2026 is not your ad budget. It is not your influencer roster. It is a community that feels heard."
When we see our words turn into features, decisions, real product changes, we stop being users, and become advocates.
Thank you, Contra :)
P.S. If your community isn't talking about you, ask yourself: are you actually listening to them?
Contra showing up in X News without a paid campaign or influencer is the kind of organic validation that money genuinely cannot buy. The fact that the community's feedback quietly shaped the product is a great story. That is the right way to build.
