Ymir Report #55 — Pricing change lands TOMORROW

Published 10 months ago • 1 min read

Heya friend!

Carl here. You signed up to receive updates about Ymir, the WordPress serverless DevOps platform that I’m building.


INTRO

This is going to be a short update. I flew back from Greece last week. It's been back to back long holiday in Canada. (That's why this update is a bit delayed. I'm taking a bit off today 😅)

The pricing changes are almost done in the main Ymir application. I still need to have to run the entire test suite with the changes. This takes over 10h. But it should be done tomorrow so you have until then to resubscribe or subscribe to get the old unlimited plan.

Outside of that, I haven't had time to work on anything else.


PRODUCT

You can always view the history of Ymir's product development at https://ymirapp.com/changelog.

Like I said, still working on the pricing changes. Once that's done, I'll be going back to doing some small improvements here and there. Looking at doing some work updating CloudFront configuration to support Brotli compression as well as Origin Shield.


MARKETING

No marketing work this week. Recording a podcast tomorrow. I have another one that should drop soon with Remkus. He mentions it in this WordCamp Europe recap podcast.

It was fun listening to it because Dave met me for the first time. But I like that he mentioned it was good to see me build in public. 🥰


BUSINESS

You can always view Ymir's up-to-date business metrics at ymirapp.com/open. They're updated every 10 minutes.

Too early to tell the impact of the pricing change. I've had 5 sign ups (5 new, 1 reactivation) from people wanting to take advantage of the grandfathered unlimited plan. I'm hoping this gives me a baseline subscription income.

There might be some partnership news about the agency plan by the next update. We'll see how that goes!

Heya friend! Carl here. You signed up to receive updates about Ymir, the WordPress serverless DevOps platform that I’m building. INTRO Hey there! It's been a few weeks since my last update. My time in Japan wasn't as productive as I'd hoped it to be. The time zone wasn't friendly to me this time around and I wasn't able to get into a good work groove.Because of that, I mainly focused on consulting work and had nothing to share related to Ymir. I did manage to get some work done towards the...

Heya friend! Carl here. You signed up to receive updates about Ymir, the WordPress serverless DevOps platform that I’m building. INTRO Greetings from Japan! I've been here for the past two weeks after going to WordCamp Asia. This is probably my last trip to Asia for the foreseeable future. I will probably go to CloudFest instead of WordCamp Asia next year. I can't afford to do both. There has been little work done on Ymir because I had friends visiting Tokyo until last week. I've also been...

Heya friend! Carl here. You signed up to receive updates about Ymir, the WordPress serverless DevOps platform that I’m building. INTRO Heya! A bit late sending this report again. The last two weeks have been challenging personally and I've just focused on myself more. I did manage to get some things done, but I mostly took time for myself. #selfcare I got one product and one marketing change out. Business is still roughly in the same shape as before. I'm still thinking about things and...
