INTRO

Heya!

I did it! I have my first case study πŸ₯³

Otherwise, I had a good time at WordCamp Europe. I had some good discussions there about the state of the hosting industry. They make me feel good about the long-term viability of Ymir, but doesn't really help in the short run.

There hasn't been a lot of movement on the product this month. I came from Europe with COVID. 😷 I'm still sick and quite low on energy. The little energy I had, I used to write the case study.


PRODUCT

You can always view the history of Ymir's product development at https://ymirapp.com/changelog.

I have a few things I want to work on, but haven't had the time with travel and now COVID. Once I start feeling better, I have some consulting work to wrap up. So no movement on the product this month.


MARKETING

Ok, so I did it! I have something marketing for this section this time 🀣 I want to thank Ryan for giving me all the details and agreeing to let me do the case study. πŸ’–

Heya friend! Carl here. You signed up to receive updates about Ymir, the WordPress serverless DevOps platform that I’m building. INTRO It would be a great story if I told you that now that this deal with BuiltFast changed my fortunes overnight! I never expected it to. So we're back to our regularly scheduled programming! 🀣 The months of negotiations were quite draining for me. I've spent some time trying to rest.

Heya friend! Carl here. You signed up to receive updates about Ymir, the WordPress serverless DevOps platform that I’m building. I licensed Ymir to a hosting company. These aren't words I would've ever expected to write a few months ago. It still doesn't feel real to me, if I'm honest. It doesn't matter that there's an actual press release. Or that there's a picture of me at CloudFest USA showing a new serverless ecosystem that didn't even exist two weeks ago. I keep thinking of the Hemingway...
