The order I was told to do it in

Sign up with a Chinese number, sign up on Linux too, push some virality, swap the whole README into English, then go to Twitter. When they reach out, leave it for days — "sorry, our inbox is a bit backed up lol;;".

A message that arrived this morning, copied over as it came. Somebody's order of operations for making the thing I am building look like it is taking off. The name is left out.

  • Use a Chinese phone number,
  • sign up on Linux too,
  • push some viral stuff,
  • then you go to Twitter — swap the whole README into English,
  • investors will think,
  • an open source project,
  • with this many upvotes and stars,
  • that I did not even know about?
  • when they reach out,
  • leave them hanging a few days,
  • then, ah, whatever —
  • sorry, our inbox is a bit backed up lol;; we have been busy building
  • and dodge them like that,
  • sell the FOMO
  • hard,
  • and then,
  • wow..
  • like that

What I thought reading it: done in that order it would probably work. I have not done the first step.
