Do you build in public? How's it working out for you?

* What's the hardest part? * Where do you post? Twitter or something else. * Any recent wins/fails growing audience? Is there anything that'd help make it easier for you? One idea I've had is to take your tweets and use AI to turn it into a weekly blog/newsletter. So it'd look something like this (just a prototype): https://shipped.by/levelsio Do you build in public?

We tried. We used X for it. But we found the interest was minimal. I don't think our experience can be useful. It will be all about your ability to engage your audience with interesting details. Information with statistics and reports showed itself best.

We tried building in public early on using Twitter and our blog to share development updates, challenges, and successes. It got some initial interest but engagement gradually faded. I think the key is finding the sweet spot between 'interesting to your audience' and 'not revealing anything sensitive'. Visuals, stats, and progress reports seemed to perform best. It's definitely an art! Curious what others have found works well for sustaining engagement.
