Dollero is a personal budgeting web app which doesn't store any of your budgeting data in the cloud. Instead your budget data is stored locally in your browser with IndexedDB and is synced peer to peer with your other devices using WebRTC. It's currently is free and makes no money although I would like to eventually charge a small monthly fee for syncing your budget between devices.

#592Radiant: https://getradiant.app/ Premise: Takes your Spotify and turns it into a personalised FM-style radio station, complete with a snarky, AI-powered radio presenter called Rad. Rad'll quip, read you the news and weather on the hour, announce what you've just heard and what's coming next, gives you biographical info for bands you might not be too familiar with but most importantly; Rad helps you discover new music…
I think this is a really cool idea and you should keep working on this. You're onto something. Incorporate more day to day? Include podcasts that I subscribe to as programs? So much potential.
Obviously, I'd expand this with more full-fledged shows if people liked the format. You could even configure it with "I listen to my podcasts in the morning / after noon / when I'm driving" etc in settings and Rad would factor that in when choosing when to play em.

#594It isn't wholly functional, you can not reply to a post yet, but you can make a thread initial post. Don't have a login/registration yet, just post something. For some reason if i haven't used the site in awhile I get an error, but it works on reload. If you get that let me know. It doesn't have https yet, it is here: http://www.yuyaykuna6.com/gigabots/db

#595SteamDB: https://steamdb.info/ I've been running it for over 10 years now, it's a database of Steam games, their updates, price history, charts, and a lot more. In the early days we took monetary donations but stopped a few years in. It costs less than 100$ a month to run. Cloudflare reports 552.2M requests in the past 30 days, and 6.09M unique visitors.
Avid user for years, so cool to see you on the social web! Thanks for your work! I'm annoyed for you at all these people trying to tell you what to do with your project, after you've been doing it successfully for 10 years and they have not. Y'all really think this person hasn't thought about monetizing? Take it easy startup-stans!

#596Very simple solution cause I was angry I couldn’t just google the question and get the answer without a few clicks and scrolling.

#597I built a web version of my original plaintext did.txt file. Plaintext is great for computers but I wanted a way to do a "did" ritual on iOS devices.
There is 1 user, me. I feel like all the benefits comes from using it like a journal so I never actually read the dids or built any features to query them well.

#600Sells a photo sharing app. People don't like to enter their credit card to buy, but at least the pay wall keeps the bots away.
