Quick question for those who participate in open source projects, do you make a living out of it or do you consider it like a hobby ?

How do solopreneurs manage to code, maintain their apps, and still be everywhere on social media—posting, commenting, building an audience? I can only focus on one thing at a time, and this balance feels impossible. Curious how others handle it. #buildinpublic #saas

I just turned 40, and I feel like I haven’t made the most of my life—yet. Getting diagnosed with ADHD at 38 explained so much: why everything felt harder, why I always felt behind in life.

Systems are crucial—they keep you anchored to your goals. I’ve learned the hard way what happens when you say 'yes' to random opportunities and end up with regret. And if you’ve got undiagnosed #ADHD? You’ll make the same mistakes again... until you don’t. Progress takes time.

How common is it to use #Redis messages to trigger shell scripts on other Docker containers in a #Laravel app? I needed to manage custom domain configs on an #Nginx container. After a long process of trial and error, it works—but is it scalable? Curious about others' approaches.
