Where to post a dev log?

My wife and I are building a food tech business and having a blast while doing it. We've thought about keeping a journal of what we're doing, why we're doing it, and the progress we're making but aren't sure where to post it.

I feel like I see milestones here on IH, but not necessarily development updates. We could do a standalone blog, newsletter, or podcast, I suppose, but I thought about posting here first. Any opinions on this?

    https://indielog.com/ has a lot of potential if you're into video updates / quick screenshares.

    I'd probably do a standalone blog + newsletter and syndicate full posts to dev.to. If you're feeling like getting something up super quickly then maybe just do dev.to for now.

      Interesting! In looking through dev.to, it looks like it's more heavily focused on the technical aspect of building. I'm way more interested in talking about customer discovery, prioritization, and business-y side of things. Also probably doesn't help that I'm building the software without writing code...didn't look like the type of thing that flies over there!

        Ah yeah, maybe not the best fit then! I misunderstood what you meant by "dev log". Unfortunately, I haven't come across any great hosted blogging platforms. Medium used to be my recommendation, but it's gone downhill.

          I couldn't think of anything better to call it :p

          I'll come up with something, thanks for the thoughts!
