More designers should be founders. And we want to back them at YC. Over the next decade, as new coding tools make it easier than ever to build and ship products quickly, great design is going to matter even more.

Let’s retire “it must be nice.” Because here’s what it really says: “I’m uncomfortable with your success and it’s easier to believe you were lucky than to admit you worked harder than I did.” Oof. Truth hurts, huh? If you stop throwing shade and start doing the work. (And…

“It must be nice.” You say it like it was handed to them. Like they didn’t sacrifice sleep, sanity, and weekends to get there. You didn’t see them working that 9-5 and the 6-2. Didn’t see the anxiety attacks, the self-doubt, the “should I even keep going?” moments. Didn’t see…

Designers: if you are going to solicit feedback - a simple ui element posted asking designers to validate will not improve your skills. Post entire screens, flows and context of the problem you are solving. Let’s not turn design twitter into and other useless feedback engine…

Change always comes with risk, effort, discomfort and the unknown. No one is prepared for all of what could happen but if no leap is ever taken the wonder of “what if” is the only certainty.

So many companies need to re-think notifications. Its insane how bad they are across the board and how the user needs to spend countless amounts of time customizing this to reduce interruptions. @Apple so bad - and yes I am only speaking about your native apps @LinkedIn -…

What I try to say every time. If you're building a consumer product that does not feel like a game, you're wasting precious time. I'm not talking about vanilla "gamification", as we talk about in product management circles i.e. meaningless points and leaderboards to nowhere.…

Stoked to see @midjourney continuing to push the boundaries. Still the best image generation tool in my opinion.

This is hilarious and I love it. Meme language finally gets a chat worthy of it. "@Roblox could absolutely become the @Snap for Gen Alpha. It’s much more than games and all about the socialverse - as I call it. But, in the meantime, Snap is still THE only place most younger…

In 2010's I designed SO MANY "Gamified" apps. From Nike Fuelband gamifying fitness, to a game for the Chicago Board of Exchange that taught futures trading. The trend died prior to 2020's, but it's BACK BABY! In a BIG way! Gaming is everywhere now. The industry is bigger than…

I've been designing apps for brands for a decade. My team ships dozens a year at about 4 months a piece. Started building games in UEFN in Q1, shipping multiples a MONTH. It's a new era. UGC gaming is going to eat the world. I'm not saying Roblox & Fortnite is going to replace…
