When I launched chrisneumann.com, I committed to publishing a new post and accompanying newsletter every week. No repeats. No missed weeks. No excuses. And for the most part, I’ve managed to do that.
Made it to 3rd this week on the consecutive weeks high score board ️🔥
I also promised my family that I wouldn’t do any work between Christmas and New Years (except in the case of founder emergencies).
So here is my annual unapologetic cop-out: Chris Neumann’s Top 10 Posts of 2025 (just wait until you see this year’s #1…):

That’s right.
For all of my time and dedication to writing about startups, the business of venture capital and tech ecosystems around the world, my most-read post of 2025 was about how to setup a Minecraft server 😂.
…that probably helps explain why so many people fell for my April Fool’s Day joke this year 🙃.
See you in 2026! 🥳 🎉 🥂
