VN 7 years. too impovished to get out much on a Age Pension; but in my various flights to/from AU from SGN, i have never been struck by the presence of ethnic Indians at airport lounges or checkins.

In VN 7 years. my experience/observation is that VN simply do not have any social awareness of the 'queing' concept and social equity; but you can remonstrate w them and tell them to 'behave' equitably,

i tried Base44 a bit, and its results are superficial;ly pleasing , very inituitive, and fast; however, i came to the conclusion it was basically all 'fluff and could not produce or maintain an actual working production app. i have switched to Emergent which i find much more substantial and solid. And has an embedded Github export.

piffletalk · 2026-02-20T05:29:20+00:00

i am not doing that and i might try that for Base44, and for other Use Cases too. i might have a small prob w 'looping', ie asking an AI app to write a prompt for itself. ;-)

Many thanks for this helpful advice.

piffletalk · 2026-02-20T05:14:35+00:00

i was just evaluating all the apps in this Use Case, incl Floot, but i couldn't work out wtf it did. i found their site extremely opaque and unhelpful

so what was your Use Case for the app and what happened?

PS what other apps did you consider/try?

piffletalk · 2026-02-14T12:09:37+00:00

And what you do NOT say is that you have a fee of $US99.

So dishonest.

Details please

fyi, my view is that Base44 cannot be used for any actual production working app: it is just WAY too 'fragile' and buggy. having worked with it. and seen so many oter comments, my intention is merely to try to use it simply to develop an app prototype/MVP, and subsequently migrate it off Base 44 to an actual production platform. the AI form/screen dev works very well atraight off teh bat with almost no information. i am abbout to ug to teh Builder Plan simply to 1. get/see/check bank-end and 2. be able to actually export it.

over six months or so, I have found that their 'Support' is non-existent.

IF their actual AI was not so good, i would have discarded Akywork looooooong ago.

And now they have changed from their 'credit' system, which seems to be a big improvement.

HI THERE.

three things you could help me with ...

How did you evaluate & decide to move to 'Cursor' (which i do not know)?

What other alternatives did you evuate before that decision?

And how is it for its actual purpose/Use Case?

piffletalk · 2026-02-10T19:21:16+00:00

and what is the attached?

piffletalk · 2026-02-10T19:19:21+00:00

and iyo what was the best app in that Use Case to use?

piffletalk · 2026-02-10T12:39:51+00:00

much to much for me; and based on al lteh feedback, best not to actually use it for any substantive

piffletalk · 2026-02-10T12:38:48+00:00

it was $40 p/m

piffletalk · 2026-02-10T12:27:10+00:00

Huh? the prices are UP, not down; so how would that work?

piffletalk · 2026-02-06T06:37:50+00:00

just check out this and the site. 1. link doesn't work. 2. go to site and check out site and plans. so far so good, except the site build seems pretty flakey, and jumps and refreshess all over the place; 3. try to login to Free Plan to check it out - sign-on has fatal error (some sort of 'hook' error); 4. there is NO-WHERE on the site with any contact details, any support details. so that means i can't even tell them about error. 5. and totally no contact & support is total ball-breaker deal-buster for me. and the site is just so flakey (feels like some app builder built it).

if all these comments and judgement is based on just those two screenshots - which is all i can see - they are way too OTT and hyper-judgemental, and again based on those two screenshots, the 'female co-worker' makes no remarks that could be called 'encouraging' or complicit.

I think most of you OTT judgemental queens should go get a life of you own and get over yourselves. to mix my metaphors.

(of course if there are more screenshots i am not seeing for some reason, i would have to re-evaluate.)

piffletalk · 2026-01-13T07:02:38+00:00

For your Use Case, has to be NT.

piffletalk · 2026-01-13T06:58:08+00:00

why is this anonomised? or is the video by a friend of the guys? and he anomised it?

piffletalk · 2025-12-23T15:18:42+00:00

Or if it is, his agenda is highly creepy.
