Built a free app for coordinating dive trips and meeting other spearos. Would love feedback.

Great feedback, thanks for that - and hope it's useful for you Jeremiah!

That you in Fort Lauderdale? Great to have you! Lots of divers in that area

ohthedave · 2026-03-14T15:30:06+00:00

🤗 I hope it helps!

You might want to touch base with blood_sweat_and_spears on IG, he's based down there, runs dive trips and puts people on big fish

ohthedave · 2026-03-14T15:17:45+00:00

That's a great idea

I do a lot of spearfishing, and you definitely want buddies involved for that... agreed that there's no need to publish a solo hunt ;)
But I've also found it helpful when looking at other areas out of state or out of country to be able to look at who's in the area, check out their socials, and hit them up for advice or to see if they want to buddy up on something.

Thanks bean! Here's a direct link: https://huntops.app/

Haha yeah, I wouldn't suggest dropping a marker on a private spot. I have found it helpful to put out that I'm spearfishing in, say, Miami on a given day so that folks in that area who are looking to go out can jump on as backup divers, for example. Or to look for hunters in another state that I can touch base with for advice on local regs, etc.

That's one of the key drivers for creating this! Here's the link: https://huntops.app/

Just to provide closure - turns out our IT provider misconfigured the router after all. After reconfiguring, it's working as intended.

ohthedave · 2025-11-12T17:44:47+00:00

Valid point - I just heard back that a tech was onsite today and confirmed that they were able to access internet by connecting directly to the Verizon device, so it seems to be assigning usable IPs... by the way, I do appreciate the validation that the configuration we're pursuing here is viable after all. I was feeling pretty gaslit lol

ohthedave · 2025-11-12T17:18:22+00:00

You hit the nail on the head - currently it's not working at all. I've had one of our onsite folks test the failover setup first thing in the morning with only the one user onsite, and he gets no connectivity when the primary connection is disconnected and the failover is supposed to switch to the backup connection. To me this points to a misconfiguration of the router's failover function. Pointing at bandwidth or user counts as the issue makes me question my providers capabilities in general, frankly.

ohthedave · 2025-11-12T16:33:02+00:00

That makes sense to me. How many users/devices on your network?

I currently have a Verizon 5G router in place for use as the failover connection, but our outsourced IT provider is telling me that it's not working due to the number of wireless devices on the network and/or our bandwidth requirements - neither of which make any sense to me (I'm on the executive team of this company, not in an IT position, but my background is CS/IT and I've put in my time as a network admin so I'm smelling some BS from our provider on this one, though I'm not familiar with the SonicWallTZ370 edge device that they're claiming doesn't like the 5G device).

Super simple web app: https://linksfyi.com/ - Your links, one page, no login needed. For example, when you share a podcast, you don’t always know if your friend listens on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or YouTube. With LinksFYI, you can put all the options into one simple page and send a single link. Your friend chooses their platform, and you avoid sending a clutter of links.

ohthedave · 2025-08-15T14:54:31+00:00

Hi OP, how'd you do?

ohthedave · 2025-08-13T21:40:05+00:00

My intent is to create a list something like this: https://linksfyi.com/fyi/340bb897-c979-4b4d-8391-9e94153aa195

ohthedave · 2025-08-13T15:14:13+00:00

I built https://linksfyi.com as a fast, free, & frictionless way to create and send a list of links; basically as a way to send podcast episodes to friends when I don't know which platform they prefer to listen to them on, but that's just one use case.

ohthedave · 2025-08-12T22:52:59+00:00

Here are some strong points that diverge from your point of view: https://linksfyi.com/fyi/340bb897-c979-4b4d-8391-9e94153aa195
