Working on Overcentric, a toolkit that simplifies growth for startups - especially for solo founders and small teams. "Overcentric is like Google Analytics + Mixpanel + Hotjar + Intercom, in a single, cohesive, clutter-free package." - as one of the users described it. Our vision is for Overcentric to work on autopilot: integrate it in minutes and it works around the clock to understand, support and empower your user…

Do you have any customers already?

Working on cataloging a curated list of craft beer venues across the world at https://wheretodrink.beer Unsure what the plan is going forward with it, apart from adding more venues and more countries. As long as it's fun for me I'll just keep going, but it does probably need a differentiator to be interesting.

Great idea! Where it came from? Consider placing link to the catalog/places right on the main page, otherwise it is not that intuitive to discover where it is!

The idea came from me wanting a curated up to date list for myself. I thought the alternatives are/were outdated, poorly maintained and/or pay-to-rank. When ratebeer shut down earlier this year I thought I might as well offer this as a potential replacement for the venue listings.

The data is initially crowd sourced, or researched by me when I'm bored. Keeping things updated is done with various automated (and some manual) alive checks for each venue.

I know you're right about the landing page. Would be nice to show the closest venues or locations there immediately, but I absolutely loathe pages that ask for positional data right off the bat (could do some geoip stuff maybe).

I am adding OAuth and Open ID Connect to Gethly.com ..which is essentially done, in order to add support for "paywall as a service" feature to enable content creators to host their content outside of the platform. I'll be rolling it out next month.

What is Gethy.com ?

gethLy, not gethy

Working on this product: - Google Form UI customizer https://customgform.com/ My toolset: nextjs, drizzle orm, postgress, shadcn, tailwind. Host this on VPS on digital ocean, using traefik.

Why one would want to customize Google Forms? Do you have any use cases? What was the reason to start this project?

1). Root cause: Adjust Google Form to site-branded colors.

2). Use cases where you can use it are different: e.g support form, early access, feedback form, events...

3). Reason to start: I wanted to have the ability to add a form to website within minutes, for free and without any backend work. Google form suite best here, they act as backend. The customgform provide only UI layer, which sends data directly to Google Form.

Currently working on a new project: https://fetchfavicon.com for getting the best quality favicon from any website. This came out of necessity for a desktop app I was working on, used https://icon.horse before, but the site has been down some days and wanted to build something more reliable for myself. It turns getting favicons right is a lot of work but got most of the hurdles figured out.

Currently working on supporting batch favicon requests that bundle multiple URLs in a single image sprite.
