    Hi Hackers, My wife and I have been slow traveling around the world for last 3 years, and our top travel hack that has saved us most amount of money is to book directly with Airbnb host. We usually rent for a month so savings in fees are easily ~$300 - $500 on each stay, i.e. about 15-20%. Not every host offers it we respect that, but there are so many hosts out there that would rather have you book directly via their website and we as guests want the same. The problem is these hosts can’t promote or say that on Airbnb. This inspired me to build OpenBnB.org, where I’ve started collecting…

    I created this website about a month ago to solve a problem I was facing myself as an aspiring digital nomad. It is very important to find an accommodation with fast and reliable Internet. I also specifically wanted places with Ethernet access to minimize latency as much as possible since I (and many others) use a VPN hosted back at home. The database is in its infancy but covers 11 countries so far. I realize the UX is very basic and a minimum viable product. I intend to have someone help me overhaul the design (with ReactJS perhaps) to make it mobile friendly and more appealing.

    orignally shared this on startup school... i thought id' share it here. i'm using a `nocode communication tool` (a web-based interface... a single browser tab!) for all of these things: 1. landing page — the landing page is the product and i wanted for folks to feel "transported" right into the app without having to walk through a shitty b2b marketing-style content. this is akin to my experience back in the `BBS` days of the mid-90's where you were immediately into the app, community, and tool. no terms of service, no privacy policy. just pure, immediate value. 2. building community — we…

    I built a flight booking app/website that lets you book flights immediately and pay for them over time. http://bliss.flights I got frustrated after being unable to afford an important trip ($1000+) while ass-broke in college and realized it’s a big problem for other young people who don’t own credit cards. Besides financing payments, Bliss has "GTFO Deals” similar to Scott’s Cheap Flights, where we notify you whenever we see unusually cheap flights flying out of your city (i.e. $250 roundtrip from New York to Madrid). Would you use it? Any feedback?
