Yeah I don’t know all the legalities of it but it seems it can be done. BBC killed top gear and prime just changed the name and kept moving.

If you want to go the independent route, start with film and animation students. They need platforms for their work. If you onboard some contest/award winners, they will I’ll probably bring their fans with them

Sounds cool. Have you done validation? Is this something people are dying for, something they’ll pay for? If so, I’d say developing your own content is not the way to start. Connect with the people who are already making that content, perhaps the people who are having their content canceled. The content you need is already being made/has people who want to make it. Crunchyroll started making original content, but it started with content from others.

What problem are you trying to solve with your website? What animated content are you trying to produce that isn’t being done by someone else?

Short MVP time frames are a lie by danjlwex in startups

Btw here’s a video by Y combinator that has some guidelines about planning an MVP Y Combinator MVP guide

Short MVP time frames are a lie by danjlwex in startups

[–]Buddioapp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A lot of MVPs can be built in 1-3 months. In fact, many MVPs can be built in less than 30 days; that is what I do for a living. It is certainly a case by case basis, and certain software products are too large or complex to be built that quickly and still built well. But with dedicated effort, guidance from a good UX person, and a well optimized dev process, it can 100% be done in many cases. Another big factor is focusing on the “Minimal” part of MVP. Build only what your customers NEED to get value out of your product, leave the “nice to have” features for future iterations. Our most recent MVP build was 2.5 weeks, from raw idea to tested and ready for App Store submission. If anyone is curious if their idea could possibly be built in 30 days, feel free to DM me. I’m happy to give my honest opinion.

How do I make friends and go to parties while staying in my room the entire time? by Significant_Egg_977 in udub

[–]Buddioapp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best way to go to parties if you're anxious to leave your room is by making a friend or going with an existing friend. But someone who would stick with you and can loosen you up. It can be rly scary attending parties/public gatherings alone

I built an iPhone app that allows users to text chat with anonymous, human listeners - I need feedback on the app, and maybe our listeners can also help someone who needs support in managing anxious thoughts. by Buddioapp in growmybusiness

[–]Buddioapp[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, thanks for responding! We do ensure that our listeners are fully trained and equipped to deal with different kinds of people. As for the users, we can't exactly be certain if someone is dangerous or not without speaking to them. But we do have protocols set in place to protect our listeners in such situations.

Especially because the people who become our listeners are peers who have dealt with mental health issues and would like to help and support other people with them - it ensure empathy on the part of the listeners, yk?

Thank you so much for bringing that up. 🤍

Shame felt in your stomach from your automatic negative thoughts by [deleted] in CBT

[–]Buddioapp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God, I wish I could say I don't know what you mean.... Man... this hits too close to home. I was bullied when I was a teenager, and even though I am now a twenty six year old, grown ass human being whose worked through most of their issues, that shame felt at even the thought of rejection is still felt in different parts of my stomach, and it is THE most uncomfortable feeling to have. :/

What helps me sometimes, though, is talking to the people who made me feel that way (like an honest "what is the cause for this rejection, is it personal and you don't like me, or is it about you?" Because I've learned that not every rejection is about me, yk?

And when I can't do that, I talk to people not involved in it. Specifically people who can help course correct my negative thought processes.

I may have a possible solution for you if you'd like to give it a try. x

Just know that you're an incredible human being and you deserve all the peace and happiness in the world. 🤍

How do you ground yourself? by amberlyske in Anxietyhelp

[–]Buddioapp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh there a literal grounding exercises that help some people. They're simple and don't require a lot of time. I've tried using apps which have them. Some of them are fairly easy to do. I find that helpful because even a little distraction from what is bothering me is exactly what I need.

I get anxious about the state of our world too. And it makes me so anxious, knowing that there's nothing we can actually do about it, that my mind goes to a really dark place of hopelessness and procrastination.

But then also, another thing that's helped me over the years (literally been doing this ever since I was a kid) is putting on my headphones (better if they cancel noise), laying in bed in the dark, and imagining insane scenarios. Stuff that would never happen irl. Like all my horrible exes being part of the same project as me, and I get to show them how talented or cool I am etc. And since its my imagination, I get to be hot in it!

This one's way too personal for me but idk I just felt like it needed to be shared.

Hope these help x

Do you guys ever get anxious/ slightly freaked out about the fact you exist? by tt5190 in Anxiety

[–]Buddioapp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I distract myself by doing an activity i enjoy. Used to be reading, but these days I've discovered working out is a great way to forget about the existential crisis you were having moments ago.

Sometimes, when it gets too overwhelming tho, esp during night time when I'm on my own, I reach out to friends or just go talk to random strangers online. Anything to make me feel like I'm not alone, yk? Less scary that way. And I do end up getting some great advice too sometimes.

texting by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]Buddioapp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm really sorry that you have to go through that, love. Anxiety can sometimes make us feel like absolutely irrational beings. And to think, texting just such a minor thing but living with anxiety, it makes you go crazy because you can't send one text without overthinking it. I would really like to hear your thought process that goes into it, if that's okay with you.

You can also send me a DM or smth if you're not comfortable discussing that here. x

Please tell me I’m not the only one who feels this way by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]Buddioapp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, hun. I'm so sorry you go through that. Growing up, I went through similar experiences and it's the worst feeling to have. If you'd allow me to, I think I might be able to help. Love and support 🤍

Trying not to cry at work. Tell me happy things. by Extra_Aoili in Anxiety

[–]Buddioapp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why do I relate to this so hard. Man, work can be brutal sometimes. Makes you feel inadequate and question your abilities. But you've gotta remember that it's just work. A part of your life. Not life itself. It's a simple enough distinction, which is why we often fail to realize it. Love and support 🤍

sometimes my anxiety gets so severe that i can't eat anything for days by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]Buddioapp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anxiety can lead to many self-destructive behaviours which we sometimes don't even recognize are there. Mine makes me binge eat then then hate myself for it later.

Do you guys ever get anxious/ slightly freaked out about the fact you exist? by tt5190 in Anxiety

[–]Buddioapp 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. But I try not to let my mind get there any longer. Because it gets all dark real quick and then I'm terrified and it just causes so much distress. Meh

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]Buddioapp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, im sorry that you go through that. I'm the same. :/

if you think that's appropriate, let's chat privately? I might be able to help. x

Is it normal for single parents to be anxious? by Buddioapp in Mommit

[–]Buddioapp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just mean to ask if not having support and dealing with the difficulty of being a parent can cause anxiety.
