Big corporations will not suddenly collapse.
And no, not every AI founder will automatically win.
Overall economic value does not magically explode.
What changes is how the value is created and how the economy is organized.

Distribution is still expensive. Maybe even more expensive than before.
Trust is expensive.
Brand is expensive.
Access to markets and regulations is expensive.

So πŸ‘‡

The CEO of Block, Jack Dorsey, just announced a 4,000 employee reduction, around 40% of the company.
Everyone is shocked. Scared.

But here’s what matters in the AI entrepreneurship world:
Execution is becoming cheap. That part is true.

But πŸ‘‡

Not long ago, non-tech users could build websites without engineers. WordPress with themes. No-code tools with Drag and drop. No need to write code. And engineers didn’t lose their jobs. Now, AI can generate code, and non-tech users can build again, just through a different interface.

Just told Axion, my #AI, to post this. It connected to #Mixpost, figured out the accounts, wrote the copy, and scheduled it across 5 platforms.

I typed one sentence in a chat. That's it.

The future of social media management with #OpenClaw is... just a conversation away. βš›οΈ

You know what I’m actually afraid of?
That as AI agents keep getting better, social networks will get flooded with bots and spam.
And the first reaction from platforms will be to start closing their APIs.
That’s the part that worries me.

Do you also feel this?
When you open social media after 2–3 hours and see something new, do you get a bit agitated, thinking you might fall behind if you don’t try that new tool?
Like everyone is already testing it and you are the last one to find out.

Is VPS availability at Hetzner already limited? Was this label there until now?

Real case: Berlin agency, 23 clients

Before: $240/month SaaS (increasing to $380)
After: ~$35/month self-hosted

Plus: Won 2 new clients who specifically cited data transparency as a factor.

The economics shift faster than most expect.

SaaS costs compound:
- Per-user fees
- Per-account fees
- Feature tier upgrades
- Annual increases

Self-hosted:
- One license
- Unlimited users
- Unlimited accounts

For agencies with 20+ accounts, self-hosted often costs 40-70% less.

The real cost of SaaS social media tools isn't the base price.

It's the scaling model that works against you.

Here's when self-hosted starts making more sense:

2. Shopify Live Globe 2025
This year, Shopify took things to a whole new level. They built a live interactive globe with games, animations, and a visual execution you absolutely have to see. It’s the kind of project that makes you forget you’re looking at data.

Add more team members? Pay more. Add more clients? Pay more. Scale your business? Your tool costs scale with it.
Mixpost works differently.
