@Antonio_Lopes launched the John Peel Sessions app today; a great music app.  
[https://johnpeelsessions.glideapp.io/](https://johnpeelsessions.glideapp.io/)

I have always been a big fan of John Peel and his sessions.  
And because I love this app I shared a tweet about it.

I realize that you (and I) won’t always have this impact with a tweet, but I want to share it with you. Because it shows the potential of the right tweet to the right people.

I have 35k followers on Twitter, so that’s a reasonable audience to start with. But this twee became a success because lots of other people started retweeting, including the bands I mention in the tweet. For example, Tim Burgess has almost 300k followers and he retweeted my tweet.

See the results of day 1 below, a thousand people clicked on the link to the app.

Looks amazing! Congratulations! May I ask how did you customize the home page and other tabs to not look like a list? I’m still learning. I’m assuming it’s “details” component?

It’s a details layout, my best guess is they included:

- Image
- Title
- Text

It’s pretty common to use details layout for home screens to give flexibility in linking with other parts of the app.

Let me add a little music to this. Yesterday was fundraising day for the John Peel Centre. Me and my band were part of it. Check this! 😉

100%.

I experienced the same, although at a much smaller scale, with this:

> <https://twitter.com/sardamit/status/1296449733951709187?s=20>

The initial boost from Glide’s Twitter account provides the much needed lift-off.

I was on a break from Public Twitter for ~2 months and decided to make a comeback with this thread.

Nice thread! Twitter can be a nasty place, but by muting and blocking you can make it a great place!

Thank you, @erwblo.

It is.

In the last 6 months I have realized that there are 2 types of Twitter.

- High signal
- High noise

You get what you invest your time on Twitter in.

I took the break to think with a clear mind. 🙂

John Peel and Tim Burgess mentioned in one tweet on an app building forum … I think I have entered some sort of parallel universe.

In the early 80s Peel, Mark E Smith and Morrisey saved my teenage years.

Me and my band we toured a lot with the Fall, still friends with Marc Riley. And still friends with the Peel family as well 😉

If you played the Sheffield Leadmill between 1984 and 1993 … I probably saw you !

Awesome app.
