so im 95% ready with the @anky mobile app. its amazing. i love it. and once it is ready and shipped the next problem is distribution. so here is what is happening now on my computer: i distilled the core group of people that i want to be the first users of the app. created a big document that explains it with detail [1]. sent that to codex. asked codex to give me a browser where i could log in with my personal tik tok account scanning the qr code it did. so i did my part and now it has access to my account then i told it to find me 888 videos that i could watch to warm up the new account for anky that i will create and on which i will post videos to funnel people into downloading the app warming up the account is basically consuming content that the people that you want to talk to with the content that account will make watch so basically codex right now is exploring tik tok on this in-app browser, watching videos, and deciding which are the videos that will go on this list later, with that list, i will create a website (private - only for myself) that i will open on the phone that i will have with this new account. i will tap one of those links. watch the video. like it. comment on it something genuine that arises in me as a consequence of watching it (im one of the people that i will talk with the content so probably each one of these 888 videos is one that i would watch anyways), and then keep scrolling for 15 minutes per session if the content that tiktok shows me is not good enough i will go back to the list of videos and repeat the process (doing this helps so that tiktok doesn't recognize that account as a bot - which helps with organic traffic afterwards) once the account is warmed comes the other hard part: creating the videos i have a format that im very excited with and that i feel has lots of potential, but it requires ai generation which is expensive. and i don't have money now. so will need to find a way to make videos without spending too much $ overall really excited about this next phase. the app is awesome. its essentially simple. distilled to the very core of the action that i propose to the user: write 8 minutes without stopping and who knows maybe it even ends up helping people find the thread of their own and unique truth that's the whole point it is currently on testflight [2] and i just shipped a new version. am shipping like 6 versions every day because... we test in prod of course :) i feel that this is very very very close to ready gn --references-- [1] https://docs.google.com/document/d/1HnV7Y2-MEDK__oGG12rvIUAq_DlyBcKF6INmzNJWNR0/edit?usp=sharing [2] https://testflight.apple.com/join/WcRYyCm5
