Hi HN, we’re Ben and Alex, founders of Muse HQ ( https://muse.place/ ). We help anyone build immersive 3D websites. Alex and I started building 3D websites because we were bored of building the same old static websites that we have been contracted to do for the past 6 years since high school. Building websites sucked and was boring. Fortunately, Alex discovered the power of three.js. Between us, Alex was the first on…

Why should someone want to build a 3D website? Or are you only targeting people who already know they want to build a 3d website?

With Firefox's tracking protection on, the only thing I get for the homepage is a single line error message, as the WebGL context drops unexpectedly. If you visit at least once without tracking protection, and then turn it back on, and visit (even with cleaning all caches), then the site loads correctly.

Hi, cool project! Have you considered how you intend to provide accessibility on top of this model of interaction? I have some thoughts for possibilities involving HRTF audio for blind users, but the deafblind experience is going to be ... tricky. Of course you'll need to do similar work to expose the semantics of one of these experiences to search engines, so for once I am not just begging for accessibility merely f…

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Personally, I click on the launch threads because they're part of the current batch: a clear indication that they're part of the current batch (rather than just a generic "launch HN" announcement) is much more valuable to me than the reference to the type of business. The "Launch HN" title is used by non-YC people, meaning these threads come across as non-YC threads than YC threads. I think on balance you're probably…

I changed it to say "Launch YC" instead of "Launch HN" this time round, for reasons related to what you're saying. Doesn't seem to have landed though :) Another thought I had was "Meet S21". Better? It would free up a char! "Meet YC S21" is too long. "YC S21" would be the shortest. That is, something like "YC S21: Foo, Bar, Baz" with a word or phrase for each startup. But I'm not sure if that would convey that it's a…
