What it does
Meritas is a freelance bounty platform built differently. Clients post a fixed-price merit, AI pre-screens every applicant so you only talk to real fits...no experience gatekeeping. Payment goes into Stripe escrow upfront and only releases when the client approves the work. No bidding wars, no unpaid invoices, no resume. Anyone can claim a bounty.

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
