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

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’–

The most exciting thing is that Ymir sponsored its first WordCamp! πŸ₯³ It was a cool milestone for me and I need to put it on the open dashboard when I have a moment.

Heya friend! Carl here. You signed up to receive updates about Ymir, the WordPress serverless DevOps platform that I’m building. INTRO I'm back from 2 months of pretty intense travelling. If we add the other life events that I discussed in the previous report, it's been quite busy for me personally. I worked on Ymir some, but I didn't have the time to sit down to write my report. That said, there's a good chance I'm done travelling for the year. I was just at WCEU, but I don't plan on going...

Heya friend! Carl here. You signed up to receive updates about Ymir, the WordPress serverless DevOps platform that I’m building. INTRO It's been a longer than I'd liked since the last update. Unfortunately, I had someone close to me pass away two weeks ago. They were in their 30s, and it was unexpected. I'll talk more about it when I do my year in review. I spent a lot of time the past two weeks with their family. The time I had left, I used to work for consulting clients. So there hasn't...
