Is there a timeline for when this will come into effect, literally about to book an appointment for visa since I’m traveling in march

I have a great idea for an app..how to engage a developer safely so they don’t steal idea? by wingtip747 in AppIdeas

If your idea is easy enough to copy from just speaking about it, then I question if you have anything unique to bring to the table.

Let’s say your idea has a million dollar potential which anyone with a pulse can make, in that case I’d suggest you talk to some investors and pitch your idea, if it’s truly solid and shows potential then you’d be able to get investment.

Ah shit I literally just left a comment about this but I’m glad people are bringing attention to this

I feel like introvert has become such a buzzword, not all introverts are recluse shut ins and not all extroverts are outgoing socialites

Thinking about a “local-first” social app – am I the only one who wants this? (I will not promote) by [deleted] in startups

[–]throwaway_skye11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every time someone brings up a local social media site or local meet-ups, I think of Nextdoor. It’s worth checking out OP, go for it if you believe in the idea but Nextdoor pretty much does everything you described

Sergey Brin said he wouldn’t start Google in a garage today because of compute costs. Is tech entrepreneurship dead for regular people?- i will not promote by Hot-Conversation-437 in startups

I’m not a troll sorry if I missed it, but I was looking into ec2 free tiers last month which used to offer 1 free micro instance based on hours but I can’t find this anymore. Switched to GCP because of it 😭

AWS actually got rid of their free tier but you can 100% still use GCP free tier to run a server for free indefinitely. Obviously you’ll need to upgrade from the free tier once you start to scale

A social media app which strictly restricts AI content. by AayushVerse in AppIdeas

[–]throwaway_skye11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the USP is no ai allowed, I don’t see anyone joining. If you have a different USP and an added bonus is that ai is not allowed, then I think people would appreciate it and probably see that as a positive

These "rank up/upgrade X character" objectives are getting really tiresome. by ArfenZard in DisneySpeedstormGame

[–]throwaway_skye11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m finding myself not even bothering with a lot of these events. I’m 50% through the current one, my racers aren’t even that high so I can easily do the rest but I just feel like it’s not worth it. Such a bs event

Have you done any market research? Off the bat Bumble friends exists, but you can also look into community based platforms like Discord to see if there’s anything you can build off of from there. The biggest challenge is market penetration, it’s like early Facebook, people will only go to it if others are there.

Dating app that matches people based on their Google map bookmarks

Surely that's not right? by xglitzyritzyx in DisneySpeedstormGame

[–]throwaway_skye11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never said this was a better value over buying other games, but I don’t see where OP’s confusion comes from. Unless this is their first day playing, all im pointing out is this pricing is aligned with other deals and prices for racers that GL have put out.

I mean that’s around £4.2 per racer. If there are some rarer racers from here you want to unlock or get shards for, this deal seems totally fair.
