A few days ago, I responded to a comment by bloggergirl offering to read anyone's web copy and help. I shot off an email hoping for a paragraph or two of feedback on my startup's copy. Instead I received a professional, detailed deck of tons of invaluable well thought out feedback. It must have taken her an entire afternoon. Here's a link to it: http://www.slideshare.net/shereefb/recommendations-for-bettermeans To top it off, this isn't someone with a lot of free time on her hands, she's only days away from launching her own startup (page99test) This community blows my mind!

Hey Hacker News, I'm the maker of Kopage, a free & self-hosted Website Builder. While working on new, cool features (AI, of course), it would be great to hear some HN feedback :) Thanks, Simon

Hey HN! After years of experiencing hit-or-miss coffee bean purchases, I built a simple solution to crowdsource coffee bean ratings. The problem is straightforward: buying new coffee beans is a gamble, and with rising prices, a bad bag is both disappointing and costly. The solution is a no-frills web app built with Go, HTMX, and Tailwind CSS. No accounts required, no JavaScript frameworks, just a simple 5-star rating system for coffee beans. Technical Stack: - Backend: Go - Frontend: HTMX + Tailwind CSS - No user accounts (intentionally) - Progressive web app I deliberately chose HTMX over a…

ShitFast▲14A passion project I started recently. Please submit your own (or any) website you suspect might score high as "AI-slop" and we'll publish a roast soon. Note that my goal is two-fold: I'll use (most) submitted websites in some research I'm going to be publishing later. Thanks!

linkrdr (www.linkrdr.com), a personal link aggregator, was directly inspired by http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3555923 I read while browsing on HN. It's still a bit rough, but the concept is an interesting one and people have already shown interest. Let me know what you think. Also, if anyone knows a good UX designer, email me :)

Hey all! Super excited to share this! If you're familiar with the r/InternetIsBeautiful sub-reddit, then you'll enjoy this. I built the website as a fun side project project over the weekend, and it re-imagines what r/internetisbeautiful would be if it was a newsletter. It's meant to be a completely free and community generated resource of the most interesting, useful and awesome websites from the depths of the internet. The list is tiny right now and I would love to hear your recommendations of websites that you think we should include. Hope you enjoy it, and would love to hear…

Primary link: http://hackerscoffee.org I thought Coder’s Coffee (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4010355) was a great idea but disagreed with a few aspects of its execution (registration solely via linkedin, iOS app only, manual approval process, brittle: crashed every time I used it on my phone). I noticed the app had stopped working entirely last week, and went to the site (http://www.coderscoffee.com) to discover that the project seems to be no more. I re-implemented the concept, minus my grievances, in about 20 free hours I had last week (and also took the opportunity to make a…

Hi everyone, I just saw a vibe coded game on HN, and thought maybe I should post about this here. I'm organizing a vibe coding game dev competition called Vibe Jam. Last year we did it too and there was 1000+ games submitted. This year the deadline is May 1 and you can submit your games until then. There's $35,000 in prizes with the Gold prize being $20,000. Let me know what you think! -Pieter

Campfiree▲14I built Campfiree because I got tired of platforms treating users as products. On Campfiree, users submit feature ideas and vote on them weekly. Moderation is handled by randomly selected community juries, no corporate team deciding what's acceptable. It's free with ads or $7/year without (free during beta). We have 55 users so far and ship features every week based on what the community votes for. I'd love honest feedback on the model and the product.

TLDR: I'm building an experimental open source/open data thing to collect good lecture recordings website: https://lectures.koljasam.com/ repo: github.com/koljapluemer/awesome-lectures Hi everyone, this submission is my attempt to contribute something to the question of how we will find, share and evaluate information in the future, in the face of the many problems that I think HN is well-aware of (slob, search engines returning SEO garbage or corporate stuff, spam, trust problems, big companies eating everything,...). I was specifically inspired by recent…

Hey HN - I'm Mason, and I'm excited to share a fun side project I've been working on recently: Repo Roast. For me, Github often feels like a serious (and sometimes soulless) place. I built this website to showcase the human, silly side of developers. Repo Roast is built on top of LLM-powered GitHub analytics tooling we’re developing internally at Merit Systems [0]. One of the historically cited weak points for LLMs has been their sense of humor. I found that with the right prompt, at scale, they mostly can _identify_ humor pretty well. We experimented with a couple of different models to…
