Anyone interested in (lucid) dreaming? I've got a side/passion project that I've been working on for... quite a while. It's called https://oneironotes.com https://oneironotes.com and it's a dream journal app for (lucid) dreamers. Think Evernote (or well, that's a bit old now... let's say Notion or Bear or Standard Notes... so, a note-taking app) specifically for "oneironauts". Currently there's a pilot version as a PWA available for a lifetime subscription, but I'm working on more robust, mobile & desktops apps. As a sole founder & developer I've been doing everything myself. I'm not really actively looking for a co-founder, but if anyone here is interested in working with me on this, send me a message! Technical or not, doesn't really matter. The project would mostly benefit from someone who's an experienced lucid dreamer, knows the niche and has excellent marketing & community building and/or design skills. Contact details on the website.

As a fellow dreamer, cool project! I’ll have to look more into it. However, I’ve been dying to ask another developer/dreamer, what are your thoughts on a video game that trains your brain to do reality checks?

  Hey, thanks! I think a "lucid dreaming-based" video game would be really awesome. I'm pretty sure there are already indie projects like this actually, but I haven't tried them yet. So it would be fun, but for actual LD training... I'm not convinced. I don't think it's sufficient. Just training yourself to do reality checks often is not enough. I've had countless dreams in which I mindlessly did an RC and then went about my dream business just as non-lucidly. It could be a training aid though. Games as a form of interactive storytelling could help grow the player's metacognition / critical self-reflection, which might lead to more lucidity. And there have been some studies that show video games can help with LD induction (example [0]) If you decide to work on a dreaming-related project like that, definitely send me a message :) [0] https://www.researchgate.net/publication/333001762_Relationships_Between_Video_Game_Play_Factors_and_Frequency_of_Lucid_and_Control_Dreaming_Experiences https://www.researchgate.net/publication/333001762_Relations...
