Firing Rebrandly.

Folks, it's an old truth that several things can be true at once. For example, I can still love paying for really good services, software and content.

But I can also hate paying for bad things. (Another day I'll tell you about when I fired TripIt 🥳.) Today, though, it's about a service that was actually quite good, but heavily overpriced.

Tonight, my AI team and I fired Rebrandly. We not only got an even better tool, but also saved $384 a year. Hacking together little services like these isn't just easy. Believe me, it's also really fun. So I'm absolutely convinced you'll be doing this soon too, if you aren't already.

... not just filling all sorts of unmet needs in your life with solutions you've made yourself, but actually getting rid of services you simply no longer need because you can solve the problem better yourself. Meta Muse has shown the way for a broad audience in the US, but here at home we still need to be a little more like hackers for now. Just a little.

And look how good it looks, too. (Yes, you can tell it's vibe-coded. So what? Smart, not cheating.)
