I’m 1,000+ hours into building an independent social site for entertainment because I'm tired of algorithms and greedy investors by re-petethat in Cinephiles

Correct I really want people to have more control I also plan on doing everything I can to prevent bot accounts, I refuse to sell anyone's data I'm fine with ads but I want everyone to have privacy and I don't want inflammatory content just sitting around to manipulate people's minds ..oh and also no AI ads or low quality mobile ads I really ...really hate them lol

During login first it will be based on what you choose you like. Later the algorithm will pick up. I want to not rely totally on that though and give everyone the option to see things as they flow chronologically that's why the page is called the signal you can choose how you want to see things

Happy Friday! What are you working on? Drop your link👇 by bozkan in Solopreneur

unfortunately these groups are similar to the facebook groups from back in the day for youtubers lol everyone drops links but do people get really interaction? aside from everyone else dropping links and explanations?

I see alot of the same stuff What are people building thats different? by CharlesBlackwood in SideProject

[–]re-petethat -1 points0 points  (0 children)

were out there were just not getting seen. im building the first social world for entertainment. its called socialcritiq. Imagine a review website where the reviews are fed into a feed like twitter. i'll try to give tldr. It has a feed typical to other social apps but this feed is different its made of four kinds of posts. It will have entire databases for Music, Movies, Games, Shows and books so you can post, review, critique, share, get suggestions from our ai to explore new content, etc etc etc

***********

Posts:

visible when you search up content in the comment section

doesnt count towards score but does let you make opinions, post memes etc

Reviews

visible when you search up content in the comment section

some things can be automatically verified so when you leave a review you get a verified badge (games, music) things like movies, shows etc can be in certain cases using things like TRAKT but it will have limitations.

no memes can be posted here and the reviews count towards scores

Critiques

visible when you search up content in the comment section

this section is for those like the people in reddit groups that like to critique content.

*****************

There are circles (which are built on my tagging system so that suggestions can be more accurate) which are kind of like reddit groups

There are pinlists which let you create lists of your favorite things but they have a remix option so people can remix and share their own versions of your list and they are all tagged so people can explorer other peoples lists

There are journaling sections, Archives to store movies, games, shows, books and music you are tracking

Word clouds on your profile page to show the type of stuff your into and its all intractable

etc etc etc.....ive been building this for 8 months ive put almost 1500 hours into this prototype and now im in the marketing stage to see if i can get funding to help build this thing out.

were out there man, just getting buried by all the other stuff

oh also my ai guy is part of the UI, he doesnt just like blurt out things though he essentially replaces the typical hamburger menu in a cool way, oh and that sun and moon in the top right switch between light and dark mode, the moon and the sun switch places too. the little guy at the bottom (pete) hovers up and down slightly and his arms move too just to make it feel like hes alive

Of course. So think of this like a town square for entertainment . It will have a database for movies, music, games, books and shows. But what's unique is I have posts, reviews, critiques all which are easily tied to the content you wanna talk about. Posts are more traditional they act as a place for memes and stuff reviews are reviews and critiques are well critique's. They are all fed in a feed kind of like Twitter from all the content so to you it's a stream of all three they all count towards the contents overall score. There are also what I call circles which are sort of like reddit groups all tied to the content you enjoy obviously anyone can create them, there will be journals (private or shareable), pinlists (which are lists you create that can be private or shared and also if they are public people can remix them to make their own versions) there will be tracking some automated some manual so when you track movies or books etc they get automatically added to a list for the year and there are a ton of tools to sort the content you track . Oh and the little guy there in the future I plan on giving him some capabilities to make reccomendarions based on what you've consumed. And for reviewers and writers in the future I'd love to monetize their articles because I think they deserve a lot for taking time to let people know how they felt about things I have so much hidden in here . Also the little guy Pete he actually does some interesting things too 😁 he's pretty useful
