My 10-month experiment with memes in São Paulo
I know this is a tiny sample size, but after 5 attempts the pattern is pretty clear. When I keep the setup simple, I actually follow through.
> Tiny progress is still progress.
That line sounds cheesy, but it got me through the part where memes stopped feeling new.

Beautifully put. I needed that reminder today. The the library detail changes the whole answer. Small progress still counts.

This is genuinely helpful, thanks for writing it out. The 9-minute rule is underrated.

Maybe, but the tradeoff seems bigger than the post suggests. This is more useful on a tired lunch break than on a perfect day.

@urban_aisha That is fair, but I still worry about maintenance.

Love the tiny experiment energy. This is where I would ask one more question before choosing.

Honestly, this is a little too vague to be useful. The low-effort version is probably the keeper.

This depends heavily on budget, time and personality. I used to overcomplicate this constantly.
