Better metrics, alerts system and 4k MRR

All right, so it took almost a year to go from 2k to 4k MRR. I guess this is a slow growth compared to other rockets out there. On the positive side, it is still a 100% yearly growth and I do not think it is bad at all. If I could sustain such growth, in a couple of years it would be a pretty decent business.

Most of my time during the last months has been spent working on issues in the open-source libraries Bull and BullMQ, I got precious help from a part-time developer that is killing it.

Two new features that I also implemented in Taskforce.sh, and that I think will reduce churning are better metrics (with charts showing historical data) and an alert system. Alerts are actually a super important feature; you need to know if your jobs are failing or misbehaving as soon as possible so that you can take action, and of course, when you have the alerts in place you will be more reluctant to cancel your subscription.

There is still so much more I have planned to improve in the rest of the year, but before that, there is a series of new articles that I need to publish as marketing has been lagging lately.

See you in the next update!
