Better late than never! 2025 seems like a million years ago, but good to see reminders that it was a productive year.

Day 3: The Archive Goes Global
103 places now seeded into the database. Every single one sourced from Reddit, real people, real memories, real places they actually stood in at some point in their life.
What I shipped today: heatmap, i18n, logos, bug fixes across the submissions flow, and two Figma Make widgets live on the Figma Community - https://glassy-sky-12636665.figma.site
Today felt like a struggle. Trying to polish something that's becoming my baby. Got banned from a couple of subreddits along the way but kept pushing. Learned a lot about how the tone of these posts needs to land, the difference between asking people to use your product and asking people to share something they already carry.
Tomorrow: cleaning up the design system and adding the Figma Weave textures I generated on day one.
Wow, superb! Seems you are using Google maps and some other data aggregation techniques together, super interesting and worth it!
😊 Can't wait to see what everyone's building.
2019: "I want to be a developer and the same year, I want to be a designer."
2020: "What kind of designer?"
2021: "Maybe UI/UX."
2022: "Maybe freelance."
2023: "Maybe SaaS."
2024: "Maybe AI + Design."
2025: "Wait... AI-Powered Product Design might be my thing."
Finally, you found it. That's great! 👍
