Hey ranters!

I'm here to ask a huge favor.
So I used to be on the app more frequently last year, but I started to work on a shit ton of personal/professional projects. I'm not technically back to being a regular again (probably never will be), I'm back to ask all you great devs to possibly check out a platform I'm working on. It's not 100% completed yet, but I'm at that weird 90% mark where you're almost done but you start to find other interesting things to do, so I'm forcing myself to ask people to hop on it to give me that push. It's going to have some interesting (if I say so myself) features.Definitely appreciate it! (Please don't kill me over the UI/UX, I'm primarily a backend dev...but it'll definitely improve by 100% Launch)

AND ONE LAST THING....I don't have a good name for it yet so..there's that..

THANKS!

Didn't put the link on purpose btw, was only gonna show it if people showed interest

Can you give some more background info? Like what kind of platgorm is it?

Sounds interesting as is but more background info never hurts

I'd happily check it out, well done for trying to finish your project!

@RicoNijeboer Definitely...I can give away some...the rest is a surprise.

But long story slightly shorter, It's a social media platform (yes, another one). But I'm trying to shake up the regular social media business model. I'm tired of ads in everyones face (though this is 1 of the avenues in the model, it's not primary or mandatory, 100% optional. I'm hoping to introduce subscriptions eventually, once things are clicking (it'll be worth it).

My main inspirations:

Tumblr: for it's freedom/it's amazing art community/short-form blog capabilities..however my ideal user, while sharing quick pics,gifs and eventually videos, will be more deliberate with their written posts and put a little more time into them.

Etsy: for giving mom&pop/indie small businesses a platform to sell their wares

I'm hoping anybody from Little Timmy to Grandapapa will enjoy it for it's content, but I'm hoping for mostly creatives.

I know I have to work on my pitch

@atheist Thanks!, give me a minute, I'm going to throw up the link

@Holyfield3000 sounds good, will have a look when you send the link 👍🏻

Will post in a few, gotta fix something with Heroku

sounds neat might have to check it out

@terraria99 Thanks, but trying to solve some 500 error heroku keeps giving me. I'll "@" all of you once I fix it

cool @ me too when it's up

📌

@Holyfield3000 let me to know, once it's up. Sounds interesting (and don't worry, I'm no frontend guy, so no need to worry)

‘@‘ me too

@ please 🤓😁👍🏻

Link?

any news?

@terraria99 @Humanoid @Hakash @theFallen68 @vnwonah @Wack @Admin-who @Charon-92 @iAmNaN @RicoNijeboer @atheist

OK, sorry. but Those Dev to "Prod" errors are something fuckin serious. I cleared up most of them, but again it isn't complete this is more to get a quick feel for it, like is the UI alright, would you actually use it, you know regular stuff. If it interests you to the point you go back to it regularly, you'll notice updates like hell, shit will be broken while something new pops up lol...but yea the link is www.aaand.herokuapp.com ("told you the name is definitely under major thought")

and guys please dont hold back, shit on it if you got to.

it doesn't work if you have www

@terraria99 please try it with a laptop or desktop, cell phone is no where near complete

@Holyfield3000 a few things. first how do we find other people? second the edit profile window seems a little broken and the text in the new post window drop-down is white on white.

@terraria99 Thanks for trying it out!

I didn't add a way to find people yet, since it was new. I was going to have it where everybody see's everybodys post, hopefully if and as it grows I would've added a way

yea I need to fix the bio change, and make the theme color change a little more prominent.

Thanks! Totally forgot about the white on white. I'll take care of it

@terraira99
took care of those changes!
