You’ve probably seen hot-takes like “SEO is dead; nobody will click through once the AI answer appears.” The conversation resurfaces on HN every time Google demo­s a new LLM feature.

I run a weekly “SEO Myth Busting” newsletter for founders and just published a deep dive on this claim.

Key findings (with sources & graphs in the article)

90 % of SaaS sign-ups in our sample still come from classic organic clicks (the SGE panel links back). Google’s own ad-revenue dependence makes full zero-click AI answers unlikely

Traffic is shifting: generic content farms lose, trusted brands win. That’s an opportunity for small, expert products.

Happy to answer technical questions in the thread.

I never read it in English, gotta compare the French & English version.

I have heard a lot of bad feedback about them lately.

No issues so far with you?

Definitely something I could use as an external display for a pomodoro timer

What do you mean by social pressure ?

It's 2 different things to have a to-do list and use the Pomodoro technique.

The first one is made to plan your day and clear your mind, whereas the latter is made to help you go through that list while being as productive as possible.

You can totally use both

break 1 hrs !

Thanks for the feedback!

Yes the idea was to create a tool to help you go through your day, not something super complex (we all already have our systems in place)

Gotcha for the motion, I'll reduce it a bit :)

I use a variant of the Pomodoro technique: instead of having strict breaks when the time is over, I just receive a sound notification at the end of the focus and the end of the breaks.

Then, every 10 minutes, I get a new notification.

It's a small mod but it changes a lot my perception of the technique. It creates a lot less frustration as I can finish the task I am working on without losing track of the time passing.

I coded a web version of this variant here: https://focusplus.io You can try it, it's 100% free (still in the early days tho)

Building your own VPN is super easy and you can run it on a cheap VPS.

I've been using mine for years and it cost me less than $2/month.

(And it's fun to setup)

Tailwind also won because of TailwindUI.

With the 2 combined you can save a ton of time and still having a decent responsive design

I thought it was about UFC for a sec :)
