This is definitely not a bad idea. I have become a regular at a cafe that I go to on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and met a few people around there, including some other devs.
I do wonder where to "advertize" this though. I've ran a Meetup group in the past but that's not a thing here. Facebook would probably be the way, except I don't have an account (does make life harder at times).
But I will consider this, thanks!
- readonthegoapp 5y agoi created a laptop sticker to semi-advertize my openness to talking to other indie hackers and it's worked a little bit. i prob look like a mean asshole most of the time when i'm hacking (and most other times), so this is somewhat intended to explicitly invite people to break thru that barrier if they might be so inclined: https://imgur.com/a/UZaH1Wa https://imgur.com/a/UZaH1Wa i didn't want an official meetup, nor an unofficial meetup, maybe just a passive but not-completely-passive way to strike up conversations with folks who were trying to live that lifestyle, or just nerds, etc. so far, the first and only dude to ask me explicitly, "What are you hacking?" -- i was like, "Whhut??"
- yakkomajuri 5y agoOh I do love this idea! A sticker could probably go a long way. You do notice some people looking around as if wanting to talk but few people ever take the first step. Especially when it comes to the Nordic countries, providing "explicit consent to bother me" via a sticker could be quite useful.
