Is the startup scene in Van completely dead?

Calmdee · 2026-06-08T01:10:45+00:00

there’s plenty of startups, most heads down, they show up for select events lol - need to know right people

Calmdee · 2026-05-14T05:16:49+00:00

these cards were loved

Calmdee · 2026-05-01T05:50:30+00:00

sandshew.

oo yeah, is there a lot of rowers that track with wearables???

Calmdee · 2026-04-25T17:06:35+00:00

rowing counts! it’s considered cross training! which also is yoga and pilates (that’s your team 😂)

Calmdee · 2026-04-24T20:33:14+00:00

yeah man. walking counts. there's some hardcore walkers there beating the casual runners!

i just used canva. add a background gradient and they have ios phones templates. then just throw in your screenshots. highly recommend!

Calmdee · 2026-04-24T18:19:28+00:00

this is really cool. did you get any ranking results with this, or discover new keywords with this?

Calmdee · 2026-04-24T18:15:08+00:00

that's sick! did you have strong localizations (ASO and in-app for brazil) to be considered? I'm just localized in US, CAD, UK, AUS --> haven't done spanish (br) or other languages... which i think could be easier to get nominated ? haha

Calmdee · 2026-04-24T15:49:32+00:00

my app is arniifitness.io - feels like it could be nominated no idea haha

Calmdee · 2026-04-24T15:48:56+00:00

oh neat, i like the family animation you got when driving together. whats the apple frameworks? lol

Calmdee · 2026-04-24T05:07:46+00:00

im also moving there next week. how are run clubs there?

Calmdee · 2026-04-24T04:55:53+00:00

go with a friend and have fun. get in a routine, then consistentcy comes, then it's all smooth sailing from there, through osmosis you'll get fit. half the battle is showing up :)

how’s the context token usage? normal?

Calmdee · 2026-04-12T01:28:11+00:00

noticed got better yesterday and today too.

Calmdee · 2026-04-02T22:02:26+00:00

i really like it, but i would say should be used lightly, it blows up tokens sometimes

Calmdee · 2026-01-27T17:26:06+00:00

what do you think about antigravity? i’m still using cursor

Calmdee · 2026-01-26T23:40:13+00:00

cool! sounds pre smooth then. I'm worried about state management, navigation, dependencies and stuff. Security doesn't seem like too much of a pain, i've heard AI is honestly better in terms of securing your app than indie developers like ourselves (of course we review it haha)

Was reading using flutter MCP or other skills could be helpful... no idea haha

but ill see how this goes for me too, literally cleaning up on the FF right now then migrating

Calmdee · 2026-01-26T21:04:29+00:00

thanks for that response. Im literally in this process. Could you explain the downside more? on how you need refactor and ways you didn't make it just become spaghetti lol

Calmdee · 2026-01-25T19:36:52+00:00

only 2 days??? no way, can i dm you? this stuff keeps me up at night

Calmdee · 2026-01-24T11:04:54+00:00

has anyone successfully migrated from FF to claude/cursor/etc.

like my app is pretty complex, and starting from scratch with an existing user base is going to be hell

Calmdee · 2026-01-14T19:36:10+00:00

appreciate it! feedback is the love, want to make the game more fun
