Don't tell us, show us the value of your project! Show how it would work in practice, show how it is better than normal Jira search. Show why I should use your project instead of the many, many others?

Thank you for your suggestion. I agree with your assessment but I'm having a difficult time thinking of how I could "show" rather than tell (I'm a developer and sales/marketing is my weak point) Possible to share some more details on what you have in mind?

  Show by letting users login in and use the app. There are literally 100s of this same application. Here's the start to mine: https://topicalsource.dev/chat/8e8c2bdf-41f4-4fd6-b8db-9bbdaa4db46e https://topicalsource.dev/chat/8e8c2bdf-41f4-4fd6-b8db-9bbda... See how I am (1) providing something people could log into and try; and (2) providing the ability to have public posts that are sticky between visits, even for non-users (localStorage gimmic) Here's a second link so you can see the public menu grow https://topicalsource.dev/chat/84a0d6dd-f66f-4f12-af17-5e99ca682a0c https://topicalsource.dev/chat/84a0d6dd-f66f-4f12-af17-5e99c... Will probably have a page/search for public chats eventually (private by default) I only made this available in the last week, no signups outside my network yet either, but the goal isn't really a basic chat / rag app for business, I'm definitely looking at the b2c area, but not for your data. The goal is to work on the misinformation / trust problem that is starting and only getting worse

    Thanks, makes sense TopicalSource looks great, and you're right using an example is 100x clearer than reading the website. Follow you on X btw, keep me updated on TopicalSource this might be something I'd use.
