Twitter makes everyone else look like winners

A practical fix and a copyable AI coding prompt. Replace bracketed placeholders with your project details.

1. Check the problem

Engagement rewards extreme outcomes, huge wins or fails, never the median. The median indie outcome is six months of work for $200/month, slowly dying, you don't see that. Cap Twitter at 15 minutes a day.

2. Use the prompt

Twitter makes every other founder look like a winner and it's stressing me out. Explain the selection and engagement bias driving that feed, what the median indie outcome actually is, and help me set a concrete daily limit plus what to do with the reclaimed time. Talk me down with facts.

3. Verify the fix

Review the proposed diff, run the relevant checks and exercise the original failing flow before merging.
