24 alternatives to Lambda – The first-ever open-source privacy based social media app
Hi HN community! NOTE: This is a repost due to missing of links I’m excited to introduce Lambda, a project I've been working on.

What is Lambda? Lambda is an open-source social media app that addresses privacy concerns and reduces social media addiction.

I got my start on the Internet in the very early 90s playing with, authoring in, and programming on LambdaMOO (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LambdaMOO) and similar systems. Shared virtual social spaces, with a persistent object oriented authoring / scripting language. They can be classified as MUDs (depending on who you talk to) but the focus is social, creative / authoring, and shared programming not RPG gaming. I've always wanted to see this kind of thing modernized and further developed. Over the last 25 years or so I've worked on similar but novel & improved…

Hi HN! During the last few years, I worked on a few applications built with Go, running on AWS Lambda. As I got to know the platform better, I started to find Go & Lambda to be a really productive combination. The applications were fast, and they ended up being much cheaper to run than what my team & I had built before. It’s probably not the best platform for _every_ application, but I was surprised at how much of our workload worked well on it. As we brought new engineers on to our team and helped them get up to speed with the stack, I found that we were covering a lot of the same topics…

The idea is to share data-based insights about sexual life I’ve worked in SexEd startups, and it’s wild that humanity doesn’t have this data. Most major academic studies have focused on sex primarily from a health and reproduction perspective, leaving many important and interesting questions unexplored (for many reasons) To promote transparency, the anonymous data will be open-sourced, allowing researchers, students and anyone interested to analyze it

Hi HN, I built Lambda ERP, an open-source ERP prototype where chat is the primary interface. It handles sales/purchase flows, invoices, payments, inventory, double-entry accounting, reports, and chat-generated analytics. There’s a live demo in the README with 3 years of simulated data, plus a Docker Compose setup if you want to run it locally. It is not production-ready yet; I’m looking for feedback on the architecture, the chat-first workflow, and whether this direction makes sense for small teams that can’t afford traditional ERP implementation projects.
