Compass

What it does

Compass helps you find people who share your values, interests, and way of thinking. What it's different: Search people by interests like minimalism, indie film, and meditation. See all profiles transparently with filters and keyword search. No algorithm decides who you can discover. No swipe. Get notified when new people match what you are looking for. No endless scrolling. Why people love Compass: No ads. No subscriptions. Open source and community-driven. Built for depth, not addiction.

The free directory to find your people — fully searchable by values and demographics. No ads, no swipes.

In the maker’s words, at launch

I created Compass — a free, open-source platform designed to help people find and form deep connections (platonic, romantic, or collaborative). I'm 28 and over the past years I got to connect with different people and hence get some clarity about who I am and what I'm looking for in life. More recently, I've been…

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  I spent 3 years reverse-engineering a 40 yo stock market sim from 1986▲721

  Hello my name is Ben Ward for the past 3 years I have been remastering the financial game Wall Street Raider created by Michael Jenkins originally on DOS in 1986. It has been a rough journey but I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I just recently redid the website and thought maybe the full story of how this project came to be would interest you all. Thank you for reading.
