Haven’t done much with it yet, but I was thinking of making some kind of surf/extreme sport social network or something. Or maybe an app to schedule carpools to go snowboard and whatnot. Haven’t put a ton of work into the idea yet Very open to feedback and ideas. Contact in my bio. Thanks HN! https://www.hazysurf.com/

See if you can work with data from Strava. Generate groups of people that do similar activities in similar areas, and then somehow invite them to group rides. Those that show up could be a great start on getting some network effect.

Though to be honest I have no idea what kind of info is available from Strava, but I feel that the more you can do on your end and the less involvement required by users, the further you could get with a greater number of people. Relying on people coming to you to sign up for yet another social network seems like a lot to ask of people.

A website making trail data from OpenStreetMap easily browsable: https://trailcatalog.org/

Myself and a friend have been working on this for quite a while. It's frustrating because it has come so far (showing trail data worldwide interactively on a tiny budget is challenging), and yet it is so far from being something super useful like AllTrails due to low data quality and a lack of relevant features (photos, reviews, etc etc.)

https://catnip.vip

Catnip is an RSS web app with two main differentiators: - it's an RSS 'aggregator', not a reader mode. I believe the browser itself is the optimal reader. Every RSS app has a bespoke reader mode that tends to suck in comparison to the browser itself. - it has a frontpage that's an aggregate of some popular feeds, making it useful without an account. I plan on adding some boosting of popular feeds once I have users.

I've been working on a new newsletter for the last month and a half called Rooms where I feature creative individuals homes as well as a brief interview regarding their thoughts on design:

Would love any general feedback or ideas!

https://Rarsy.com is an AI Carousel generator for LinkedIn. This is a high-demand application. The site already gets tons of organic traffic daily and has 500+ email subscribers.

Could monetize this eventually fairly easily with a premium version with expanded suite of features and improve the UX.

If anyone wants to help me take on some of the more technical aspects.

--> I need a clean HTML/CSS to PDF export functionality, but it's proving challenging.

Any interest or feedback?

https://waggledance.ai another Agent+Data+Tools app, like AutoGPT et. al. I’m trying to apply a nice UX and combine a lot of techniques (namely concurrency, streaming, review, ReAct, loop detection, skill recall) to make Agents more effective. For now I am probably about 85-90% to my MVP.

- working on cleaning up the source for open sourcing

- the first task is failing right now due to a bug

- doc upload is bugged

- tools are disabled

- tons of loose ends in the UI

- Actively developed: database is likely to be wiped frequently until launch, along with any user accounts.

I started a CMS bundle for Symfony projects, and released it. It still needs more work, and people to actually use it. https://github.com/SeleneSoftware/seleneCMSBundle

And a skeleton application that uses the bundle. https://github.com/SeleneSoftware/SeleneCMS

Issues and Pull Requests welcome.
