Earlier quoted context omitted.

Yes :( Do you have an idea of how to remove company websites in an automated way? I didn't want to manually review all 7k indexed websites. This is the GPT prompt I used for filtering domains to add, but it gives false positives: You are an API. Return a JSON array of booleans indicating whether each provided domain is someone's personal website. Use common sense. Make sure to return false for company websites.

For the 404s (assuming the status code isn't a 4xx), use a URL that you strongly suspect won't exist, then you can do a comparison (levenshtein distance, bag of words, etc.) to see if it's very similar to one of about, ideas, etc. pages.

I think openai embeddings API could be useful here. Perhaps one of the neurons responds to corporate speak.

I like the site, but I wish I could see all the /ideas posts chronologically without applying a filter

Mhh why do you want to go through all posts? My thought was that searching would be more useful than a huge list.

This is great, would love to see something like this turn into a social network of people building sites / pursuing ideas publicly. Added my site makeartwithpython.com too.

I’m building something like this. It’s not yet available publicly, but you can see my personal page at https://ideas.moshegrunwald.com

You can see more details about this specific idea [here](https://ideas.moshegrunwald.com/ideas/i_mos2)

I first thought it would be showing all ideas, about, and now simultaneously, but then noticed all the cards only had /ideas, then I thought I had to do url.com/now only to find that redirected to github instead. Then finally I noticed the little filter button. Kind of feel like the categories shouldn't be behind the button, it's not like they really get in the way visually and with them being the only thing there it feels like just an unnecessary extra click for a common function.

/userstory

Edit for positivity: It's a cool site though and I'll definitely be checking it out again in the future.

Certainly its not more useful, and ik the pitch for the site is a way to find collaborators which this wouldnt help at all.

I just like seeing personal sites in a people watching kinda way. Its neat, and there's usually something interesting there, but I don't really have an objective behind it. Like scrolling twitter but instead of short form comedy and engagement bait its just peoples random ideas.

this is amazing, so many people struggling with coming up with cool ideas haha

For me it's actually that I have too many ideas and none of them are great. What makes ideas great I think is having the right people to try things out with -- hence this tool. So there are a lot of uses for this :)

I have the same issue. I have too many ideas with very limited amount of time to work on them. When I meet people, I want to share my ideas and get feedback about what they would find interesting, use, pay for, etc.

I'm building a platform to do this, so I can share my ideas.

My page is at https://ideas.moshegrunwald.com

Awesome, just added this! I'm looking for someone to grow my "micro PE" of two side projects together, because I sure can build stuff, but not make them grow -> https://andinfinity.eu/about/ (or /now) I have paying customers for 2markdown, but not nearly enough for the potential it has.

This is so cool! I love the upvote function :)

Could you put it at /ideas on your website so it appears on aboutideasnow.com?
