Hate? Sounds like total indifference. But 3 people commented last time you submitted it 12 hours ago, saying it's great. ...Although, those 3 commenters are brand new accounts with 1 comment only. Are they you?! The way you say you couldn't get a single person to talk about it on here makes me suspicious.
Not an expert, but it sounds like you forgot what I'd say is the #1 startup/business lesson HN teaches - not to spend time/money developing a product before you know there's demand for it, people who will pay for it. That's the advice people would give, I guess, had you asked for help instead of writing this contemptible comment, which I flagged.
- ilaksh 4y agoThey are not me they are clients/friends. You are totally wrong. Its impossible that there is not demand for this. People still make web pages. People still want ChatGPT to output things related to their Stable Diffusion images or visa versa. The problem is that almost no one has even seen the web page.
- shubhamjain 4y agoI wouldn't have commented but I think you need dose of humility if you want to succeed as a enterprenuer. You're right people make web pages but the ones your project generates are extremely unpolished and quite frankly ugly. No serious customer would consider them. Your demo is 3-min long when 30sec should have been enough. Your website too is just not very good. I would advice to take pause, talk to few people and understand where you're going wrong.
- ilaksh 4y agoNo one said a single specific thing about the website until I started complaining that people were ignoring my posts. Now after a few people have piled on to burying my comment, there are some specific complaints. Thanks for that. Also people were completely ignoring the posts before there were any examples on the home page.. and the one example of the SuperFruit thing.. people saw that and everyone decided the whole was going to be totally worthless and unsalvageable for anything and so not worth commenting? That one at least seems like it could work out fine especially with nice images of fruit.. fruit is so delicious. Anyway, I added the web page examples because I was seeing almost everyone try to build complicated applications even though I specifically said simple static sites. But it should definitely be useful for one-off (simple) utilities that are internal to a project and don't need to look really fancy. Also I have a basic templating system in there, just haven't had time to finish some stuff related to using it. I still doubt that people are really completely turned off of the concept because the default sites that pop out of ChatGPT output are not great. But its something specific I can improve with the templates so thanks for that. And I know you were trying to be disrespectful or something but at least I have something I can work with. I was getting nothing. Not even hot air. That is why I was complaining and commenting all over about the site. Because I just could not accept that it was not worth a single keystroke from any member of HN. Because even if those websites that come out with minimal prompting don't look great, it doesn't mean its not a really promising or useful site.
- ilaksh 4y agoYour comment is contemptible and full of contempt. My comment was just honest.
