Ymir Report #74 β First case study π₯³
|
Heya friend! Carl here. You signed up to receive updates about Ymir, the WordPress serverless DevOps platform that Iβm building. INTRO Heya! I did it! I have my first case study π₯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. π· 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 π€£ I want to thank Ryan for giving me all the details and agreeing to let me do the case study. π βEmpowering Growth: JOE Media Groupβs Strategic Shift with Ymir >>β I've also done some social media posts. One is on LinkedIn and the other on Twitter/X. If you could share it, that would be great! π BUSINESS You can always view Ymir's up-to-date business metrics at ymirapp.com/open. They're updated every 10 minutes. Business is doing ok this month. I had a lot of trials. A few converted to paid, and I didn't churn that many people. So we're trending up a bit again. Let's see how things go in July now. π Carl |

Yesterday, I used the World Cup final as a cover to perform the migration of Ymir off of Laravel Vapor. (Shows you how invested I was in it π ) I'd been working on this for the past few weeks, so everything went smoothly, including the MySQL to PostgreSQL migration. It's a bittersweet ending for me. Ymir only exists because Taylor built...
Heya friend! Carl here. You signed up to receive updates about Ymir, the WordPress serverless DevOps platform that Iβm building. Life is never short on irony. A few hours after I sent the last report saying how grateful I was for the partnership, I learned that Paul Carter, the CEO of BuiltFast, had died suddenly. I can't claim to have known Paul well. It hasn't even been a year since BuiltFast and I started negotiating our partnership. That said, I tend to be a good judge of character, and I...
Heya friend! Carl here. You signed up to receive updates about Ymir, the WordPress serverless DevOps platform that Iβm building. INTRO Slowly getting back into the groove of things. I'm not working as hard as before the burnout. I still have days where I work for an hour and that fries my brain. I still get the itch to work on the product though! So I've been just doing smaller chunks of work. That still lets me ship things like PostgreSQL support! PRODUCT You can always view the history of...
