How do I remove the blur effect from my CSS?
I removed but the blur is still there. Any ideas?

Subscribing gives you access to the comments so you can share your ideas, ask questions, and connect with others.
Imagine starting a band but never playing a single gig.
No one hears your music. No one knows you exist.
And when your album drops—no one’s waiting.
That’s what launching a product without an audience feels like.
Now flip that.
What if you let people watch your ?
What if you let them hear the rough drafts, the late-night voice memos, the messy behind-the-scenes?
That’s what is.
And for solo founders and indie hackers—it might be your most powerful (and free) marketing strategy.
Tomas was building a niche developer tool.
No audience. No marketing budget. No co-founder.
But instead of staying silent, he started tweeting his progress every day—small wins, frustrating bugs, decisions he was stuck on.
The result? By launch day, he had 400+ followers waiting to try his product—all from documenting his journey in public.
A week after launch, he closed his first 20 paying users.
It’s not about being an influencer or showing off. It’s about:
💬 Start with just one platform:
“Should I go with Firebase or Supabase for auth?”
“Finally squashed the bug that broke my dashboard layout 🎉”
“Struggling with user onboarding flow today. Any tips?”
“Learned a ton about responsive design today using Flexbox...”
Share screenshots, rough UI sketches, even Notion docs.
If it feels too small to share—it’s probably perfect.
Building in public isn't about having all the answers—it’s about inviting people into the journey.
The people who follow you now are the same ones who'll cheer you on at launch.
Pick one platform and post one thing today:
Keep it real, keep it short—and show up again tomorrow.
Now that you know how to build buzz while you're building the product, let’s talk about how to capture interest, collect emails, and build your launch runway—so you're not starting from zero when you're finally ready to ship.
See you there!
