Which platform - other than PH and LinkedIn - do you guys use the most?
I'd love to hear about that.
For me, it's instagram!
By the way, this is NOT a discussion made for just getting upvotes, feel free to vote without upvoting! I really need this info for something I'm planning for my product.
Thanks!!
Edit: I'm not sure PH tells me how many people voted, so pls notify it somehow if you do vote 🙏
Edit 2: Just kidding, I found a way to get the votes from the DevTools. Feature request, PH? :D
Edit 3: I was just told that - from mobile - the Poll is not visible. Wow, PH! you can do better than this haha. Well, if you're from mobile, please write "X, twitter" or "instagram" in the comments.
Edit 4: if you guys want to connect on X: https://twitter.com/gab_creates

Twitter has a lot of fun discussions going on in our space (AI) so it's a very useful channel for us!
Launching soon!
Tons of people in this PH/SaaS ecosystem are on Twitter heavily - I think for branding centric stuff IG still reigns supreme.
Insta 🙈 I had several tries to build relationships with Twitter but no way, especially after the latest updates.
@kate_ramakaieva ohh agreee super hard to build real connections there but try to talk to ppl with voice messages, it differentiates a lot those who want to get to know with you and those who don't! I've found 3 new ppl who actually I believe soon to be my friends through this approach. The rest is just a feed
I am a marketer and have a personal brand so it alternates between Instagram and TikTok. But tbh my guilty pleasures are probably Pinterest and Tumblr😋
I use Twitter aka X for my client hunting and for my business growth. I have Commercial and Residential Solar Installations business, many people asked me how you gather audience for that. Simple answer is Solve their problem and post thread about that Problem.
Twitter is a more informative platform for me. Still, the best option for me is Discord. Information and communication is on high level there. Different channels and topics make it easy to handle community.
@jefffajans I like the most Discord it is good for connection and communication. I like other platforms also, but Discord is kinda favorite.
@porta7511 I love Discord, but am not as active in there as prob could be. I use it for a coaching community I run, and poke around Patreon's creative community on Discord a bit, but not much else
What are some of your favorite communities on there?
I use twitter all the time since all the indiemakers are there building in public.
@shahmir_faisal Can you share a few examples of makers that are building in public? Would love to learn about this!
@gabriele_mazzola Check the #buildinpublic hashtag, it's quite active and good to find creators.
@gabriele_mazzola as @nicolaas_spijker mentioned you can use that hashtag to see all the people who are building cool things
@gabriele_mazzola You can follow “lists” named Makers, Indie Hackers, etc
When you follow a list, you’ll be able to quickly keep up with experts :D
@shahmir_faisal @gabriele_mazzola Good public builders to check are @sandradjajic and @kordogroup <3
Twitter absolutely. I think information arrives there first, then elsewhere. I think most of the interesting products are also built there in public
@pwellens not saying it’s bad, but threads kind of feels like your talking into an empty room, and you have to find and visit other peoples homes. I do admit it’s a very organic approach.
As a brand designer, I've found that I need both. Twitter is for getting tech-related content, while Instagram is for graphics
Lately I’ve been bouncing around Mastodon, Threads, TikTok, IG and Bluesky. Best connections I’ve had so far are on Mastodon.
@gabriele_mazzola @jgani I found there a maker who was willing to join the accelerator program in my company after posting only one short post, so I'd definitely recommend
Hey Gabriele, I have been using Linkedin previously. But since I signed up on PH, I believe it provides better scope for tech launches which is crucial for me and my job role. However, opinions vary.
