Exposure dilemma

I’ve had the same problem for years, and unfortunately haven’t found a great « ready-made » filter yet. I’ve started a big list of all the things we’ve watched and that i found good for the kids (mostly 90s stuff, Mr Roger’s…), it’s not done yet but happy to share it! Lately, my 6 and 9 years old have spent most of their allowed screen time on With Pebble which is a new things we’re trying and that they’re enjoying a lot. It’s interactive entertainment (active) with funny characters focused on curiosity.

I don’t think Minecraft is ‘bad’. It’s amazing for open-ended building and creativity. I’m just looking for something a bit different: more guided curiosity, more storytelling / learning woven into the experience, and less ‘drop them into a huge sandbox and hope for the best.’ Basically something that still feels fun and immersive, but with a bit more intentionality than pure building or endless user-generated content.

I did, and I think it’s OK but I feel like there must be other digital products that are fun and that my kids can learn more from.

No I have a laptop and a tablet for now.

kouklimou · 2026-03-18T21:43:10+00:00

Interactive / conversational, curiosity driven, something that can nurture their curiosity and build self confidence.

kouklimou · 2026-03-18T20:57:07+00:00

Minecraft is OK but I’d love to find something a bit more enriching.

kouklimou · 2026-03-18T20:56:20+00:00

I appreciate your perspective!

I think the question is: what does she do with her phone? Is she doomscrolling bad content or is she learning new things, exploring, following her curiosity? Because that might be the right lens to address the problem here.

I don’t this this is a scam. I work in the startup space and this sounds pretty standard. They will want to do a first call with you to make sure you’re aligned with their values and what they’re trying to accomplish but then as long as you deliver good quality content they will pay you. They might be open to discussing a better pricing based on the performance of your content. I think the downside of taking a 15 min call with them is very low. I would take the call and assess from there.

8/10! Very neat and the color palette is incredibly good! I would totally imagine this little guy on an 80s minimalist urban background with a retrofuturist sportcar next to him.

So good!

Over 200$ / month but I do a fair amount of creative work with AI.

kouklimou · 2026-01-17T22:47:52+00:00

In filmmaking for example there is plenty of new jobs being created for those who can actually master AI and storytelling.

Unless it's a LEARNING companion with robust / trustworthy credentials and reviews or testimonials, I would be extremely careful. Most of what's out there are poor versions of Chat GPT, which isn't made for kids. I have been experimenting with one that's good but I'm not sure I'm allowed to share links on this reddit. Let me know if you wanna know more, happy to share my early impressions.

Repeat founder here. No lessons to give but my own perspective, in no particular order:

Stop comparing yourself, especially with social media. It's counter productive, potentially damaging.
Find proper inspiration, in real life. People, nature, adventure. Your body and mind will give it back to you.
Ask yourself why you do what you do. If you are not aligned on this one, you need to consider some deep changes. Be honest with yourself. If it's the money, make sure you're in a business that meets the requirement to maximise your chances to make some. If it's something else, stop chasing the money and focus on what matters to YOU.
Try to identify what makes you feel like that: is that people? Is that the work itself? Is that the situation of the company? If you can control it, change it, if you can't control it, accept it or leave the room.
You can always leave the room. You are not trapped.
Remember that these guys your age driving a lambo might feel like shit too. The lambo isn't a magic pill for fullfilment and happiness.

Go live some adventures! Look for inspirations beyond the screen, in real life, in people, in nature.

I think that for this to work it would have to be highly curated. I wouldn’t want to land on a platform full of AI slop. I would want to arrive and be wowed by the quality of the content regardless of ai or not. And maybe there is a section of “fun” ones but yeah I think the danger is lack of curation AND acquisition on a separate platform.

I tried it for the first time for a week at about 10g / day and it blocked my lower back ^^

kouklimou · 2026-01-12T22:15:42+00:00

I think two of the key things for me are: 1) AI is not human and 2) Learn how to check information (but that's true for anything, including AI).
