This sounds like it could make a very popular video in the programming/video essay space

I rate the rust pick, I'm trying to write more and more in rust. also that's the type of work experience employers love so good work

"There are a lot of X apps out there, but I still haven’t found one that has all the features I want"

I feel this heavy, every app's just so eh... nowadays at least but either way, goodluck with the ui work (I hate frontend too but svelte makes it bearable)

I can actually see this being useful to me, when I'm setting up a new environment and need to make sure everything available from the wider web. thanks

no worries, I understand you have strong values as do most founders. What I was referring was its unlikely any of these values will hold in the future if you don't design your system in a way combat discrimination and censorship. anything that can be used to exploit or influence people will eventually be used to do so I think and a dating app is very personal/private.

about the geo restriction, If you launched worldwide and get six people scattered around the globe then launching locally wont change the density at all. it'll just give you a smaller scope of those 6 scattered people. (maybe 2 or 3 instead)

I've only worked on basic TensorFlow stuff in python but this sounds pretty similar to my first experience making a rust crate xd

With the current prices I don't blame you, maybe a few years ago id feel different xd

"Professionally, I’m cleaning up AI slop. It pays!"

Heyo, Let me get in on that action. I have been refusing AI since day one for this exact reason

I don't understand the frame of reference for 70uA at 3v but I'm glad its going well goodluck!

cough cough American hyper-capitalism

but... c++

I have a strong focus on minimalism so I don’t intend in going crazy with self hosted services. Also I have huge trust issues with so many self hosted projects so making my own projects when possible means less exposure to security vulnerabilities, AI or enablers of Authoritarian powers.

I feel this heavy bro. I used to make minimal projects to satisfy what I needed like a kabanboard or pgp management or wtr. I wish more software took the time to protect against their real-world threat model but alas alot of the times there is negative profit incentive to do so...

also, If I remember to let you know I will, I hardly make stuff anymore so I don't use my vps' often
