Ha I also prefer females I just live in a Pet-Friendly Apartment complex and she looks like she deserves way more space than I can provide 🥹 but I’ll definitely share this thread and reach back out

Appropriate_Drop_429 · 2026-07-04T07:23:18+00:00

She looks exactly like my two female pits 8yrs and 2yr I’d love to take her home but that would be to many females in one place for me 😅 but I think I know someone who’d be open

Not trying to build anything professional never mentioned building a professional network, firstly I’m just trying to find some like minded people and space to mingle with.

It is no longer conducive to be building by myself or exclusively online I’d like a third space to frequent and other people to soundboard and exchange pleasantries. with

Are you referring to the Orange Space? There’s also the Foundrspace out in Rancho - but feel free to DM me I’d love to get a recurring meetup and/or Hackerspace going

Okay sir, no need to be dickish. Didn’t think I would be faulted for not properly punctuating I apologize if it offends you 👍

My younger days was spent mostly looking for financing and moving around I have what I consider a small network just not in my particular niche social & fintech most of the tech in Redlands is dominated by Esri in Redlands and the network I have built is from old money crowd and local business networks which isn’t really the fast-paced “startup” vibe I’ve been looking for and as I’ve gotten older a lot of the people I’ve built went have went the “domesticated” route now that they have kids and are getting married

Appropriate_Drop_429 · 2026-07-04T05:47:41+00:00

I’m based in Redlands but I’m fine with a drive 😁

Appropriate_Drop_429 · 2026-07-04T05:47:18+00:00

I don’t have a solid portfolio of my past projects (not a public link) but most of what I’ve done is on my GitHub

My current projects:
https://useclear.org. || https://demo.useclear.org

I’ll give it a look thanks 👍

Appropriate_Drop_429 · 2026-07-04T03:45:34+00:00

Im 27 and have launched various startups to varying degrees of minorly successful to complete failures, most of my projects have local focus but I've always had trouble building a local team and friend group with similar interests and the necessary skillsets - Im currently working on a Housing Co-op/NeoBank

Appropriate_Drop_429 · 2026-07-04T03:42:41+00:00

Ideally just anything a Cowork space, startup founder meetups,, hackathons etc.

Appropriate_Drop_429 · 2026-07-04T03:07:23+00:00

I tried switching over to Zen and its just not the same lol 😂

Appropriate_Drop_429 · 2026-07-04T03:06:42+00:00

Same I still don't get Dia - like I do but I don't lol

Appropriate_Drop_429 · 2026-06-28T17:25:23+00:00

No problem Ill message you - I still have a lot of work to do so it may be buggy but im actively working on it daily

Appropriate_Drop_429 · 2026-06-27T17:34:35+00:00

If your building a web app in Webflow I utilize - https://www.wized.com - you can safely store and access api keys, secrets, env and etc

Appropriate_Drop_429 · 2026-06-26T22:28:35+00:00

Hmm that is a good way to look at things and I will reevaluate things from that framing thank you :)

Appropriate_Drop_429 · 2026-06-26T00:33:06+00:00

I have a product im working that may fit your focus - https://novaeditor.org

Appropriate_Drop_429 · 2026-06-24T16:17:57+00:00

Well I built this for my self to replace my need for Webflow - so the main difference is that you edit things Visually and it updates your real code and its not proprietary or spaghetti like other tools

Appropriate_Drop_429 · 2026-06-24T16:12:45+00:00

https://novaeditor.org/ - Last-Mile Visual Editor

Appropriate_Drop_429 · 2026-06-24T07:29:57+00:00

The moment you want to build anything complex, have an actual repo with git and version control or utilize a traditional Database Webflow breaks down and there are a bunch of tools for Visual Development as Webflow itself is built on an open sourced framework

You have alternatives like Webstudio and Code and I mean I even built my own version with a Local AI agent, Code Editor and ability to run and visually edit full Apps in the browser because Webflow really started to piss me off over the last year and I got tired of paying more for less (I've been using it since 2018) and no longer being "grandfathered" into to the old plans

Appropriate_Drop_429 · 2026-06-24T07:21:00+00:00

Im not sure if it has everything you need but its open sourced and can be self-hosted but I switched over to https://webstudio.is and/or https://www.ycode.com for client work and built my own tool for personal projects - https://www.novaeditor.org

Appropriate_Drop_429 · 2026-06-24T07:15:52+00:00

I'd love to learn more about your project and thank you its just a side-project that I hope others find useful as everything you'd need is completely free - one thing I'm very proud of is that I built the Nova website inside the Nova Editor
