IncentivizeThis
A bounty board for the Dead Internet era
What it does
Imagine a local coffee shop wanting more buzz. They sponsor a bounty: "$10 for every Reddit post in r/YourCity that mentions our new espresso blend and gets 10+ upvotes." Someone sees this, writes a post they would have made anyway, and gets paid for it.

Heya HN, I've been working on a reddit-like platform as my primary side project for the last few years. Doing a (very) soft launch today, mainly because I want to use it to encourage discussion of alternatives. How non.io works: 1. Free to browse, paid to interact. 2. Minimum subscription is $2 (though you can choose more). I take $1 to run the servers, everything left gets split evenly between everything you upvote that month. It's a simple model, but I hope it's a better one than the freemium model we've been relying on for the last few years. Fundamentally I feel like any ad-supported…

"The Internet is dead. The Internet remains dead. And we have killed it." Online advertising is broken, especially for small or local businesses. You either pay a fortune to giants like Google and Meta for questionable "engagement", or you try to work with niche influencers, which has a whole different set of challenges, not the least of which is that it's hard to scale. I've been working on IncentivizeThis to create a more direct and (hopefully) authentic alternative. The idea is to connect businesses with content creators in specific communities (both local and online) that are uniquely…

Today marks ten years, 3653 consecutive days, of running at least one mile every day under the USRSA rules [1]. To celebrate, I built an interactive dashboard that turns a decade of GPX files into charts you can explore. Running has truly changed my life: I've made lifelong friends, explored beautiful places, and more importantly invested into my own health and fitness, which I'm starting to see the positive benefits as I get older. The stack is pretty simple: a NextJS app, with a Postgres database to keep all my running data, and all the stats are pre-computed and cached in Redis, so I…

Made this website as an exercise in vibe-coding and GCP. It was posted about a few times around the internet, on sites like Morning Brew (https://www.morningbrew.com/issues/business-buzzkill), MetaFilter (https://www.metafilter.com/209703/Draw-A-Fish), boingboing.net, etc. I think it's cute! I built a basic CNN trained against penises and swastikas, and then anything that doesn't hit the 63% confidence score gets sent to a mod queue, a vibe-coded fish-tinder…
