(Wednesday) Newsletter #14

GM.

It’s been an action-packed year.

It was this time last year that Jake and I were first launching LOST FR8.

There weren’t more than 5 people in the Discord.

Our working slogan was “never send a trucklist again”

Since then, a lot has changed and I’ve learned a ton.

To celebrate this past year, we made this super awesome recap video.

Haha, sorry.

Anywho, this week’s newsletter looks back at the year.

Next week’s will look forward to 2024.

As always, I appreciate replies, both positive and negative. So reply to this email and say what up!
