Honestly speaking, your stuff was my go to for spreading info on Pakistani startup ecosystem.
Kinda sad to see it go.
But as a fellow wannabe creator - I can totally understand the move.
Content, especially one driven from passion, is just not a sustainable venture in Pakistan. So unless you have a nice stream of income on the side/or your have your needs met/or you are super human - creating content just for the sake of sharing passion, will burn most folks out.
So yeah, folks still complain there isn't enough 'local' content, but there are solid reasons as to why.
And I hope that someday you make a return to the scene.
But until then, I will leave you with this question:
For folks new to content creation, what expectations should they set before they begin? Especially from a Pakistani POV where earning from content is basically nonexistent.
Thank you, I really really appreciate it. I have some thoughts on content in Pakistan but it will land me in real hot water so I try to stay away from commenting. But yes, I will touch on it in my final podcast. Btw, I listened to your Sadapay episode and few other recent ones. You are doing a great job.
P.S your pulse tracker was an amazing idea and I would like it to live on. If you want, we can hop on a quick call and work around a way to host it on something free like vercel or something if the tech stack supports. Would love to see it keep existing even though it might not have the up to date data.
