I built a social media platform called Igloo - https://igloosocial.com I wanted a platform where I could share like on Instagram, but with restricted people that I can change as I wish so not all my followers have to see all of my content. Been a great learning experience, the first time I built a proper app and a backend of this size all by myself. Don't care if anyone else uses this, I had fun along the way.

Sorry, what's the post JS web? Are you talking about WASM?

Not yet, still working on that. Wanted to get a PoC out before I go all in

Hey HN! I built Igloo - A private social media platform to share better with my friends and family. I wanted a social media platform that would give me complete control over whom I want to share with, down to a control over who sees a single post. I also needed it to be something anyone with 0 technical skills can download and start using, something that Mastodon and others could not provide.

FAQ : Is it open source? Not yet, I want to try making a business out of this, and if that fails I'll open source it

How do I support it? It's free to start, subscription to upgrade for more features

How do I trust it? Honestly, there's no reason you should. That said, the terms and conditions are clear that I don't track, there are no ads, and I don't have any plans of adding any cause I do believe in the subscription model.

Is there a web version? Still working on it, mobile only for now

I'm happy to take any more Qns!

I thought Google had killed the AMP project, I don't remember coming across an AMP page in a while

How does that affect the quality of the article in any way? It's not like they're expressing through emoji, they're just there as bullet points I get that emoji get a lot of hate on reddit since emoji only comments were low effort and that's justified No emoji at all in any form, that's just a stupid ask

Congrats on your launch team swipe! I think we already have a great payment infrastructure in the BHIM UPI and bill management like this is definitely the next step. Am I correct to understand that you provide a QR code for payment through any UPI app of my choice, similar to what Bharat Pay does, and the bill is sent to the number linked to that?

Haha thanks Do let me know if you want early access for your team

Hello HN!

Acronos is a team discussions platform that facilitates meetings completely asynchronously. Just start a discussion, say what you have to say through text, audio, video and more, and then open discussion to your team or specific people as an open discussion, or by asking specific questions and requesting answers to those. You can even automate daily standup meetings and more!

This came out of a need for my team to work remotely and we when meeting planning and scheduling became tough, we built this. It's been a great change letting people respond on their time and keeping track of every discussion efficiently.

We're close to launch of Acronos to public and we're opening it up to a few beta companies for now. If you'd like early access, check out our site and click on Get Now to fill the early access form. Happy to take any questions.

How do you deal with scheduling issues and working across time lines? I'm looking for something asynchronous

Unlikely, that'd be a very weird restriction. I think they meant Apple users would just use the FaceTime app

As a mostly backend dev who doesn't really enjoy frontend, Flutter has been my favourite framework to work with so far. It provides a great level of abstraction and makes styling really simple while providing complete control if needed

Could you explain why that would be a red flag?
