No, not a problem at all.
Quite the opposite in fact.
I think the world is much better if we avoid forming authoritarian corporate media platforms with some dickhead billionaire in charge.
I host my own social media platform with one active daily user plus two guys who signed up when I spam others Show HN posts. Link is in my profile.
I prefer the bazaar any day.
And im the guy selling my wares from a carpet on the street, don’t even have a fancy booth
Sorry for rambling
- godelski 2y ago> Sorry for rambling No, you're fine. I don't think you're alone and while I'm probably not going to sign up for your site, I do appreciate that you have created that space. I think there is a lot of value in doing things for the sake of doing them. It's an extremely "human" endeavor and I think there's lots of benefits, even if they are hidden. And I think there is even value in just knowing that these are things people want. Even if it isn't everyone. Personally, I thought the cool thing with the internet -- in regards to markets and economics -- is that it meant you could make products (or whatever) for very small niches and still get wealthy. Because with 6 billion people on the internet, even a very narrow niche is gonna strike the interest of at least tens of thousands (if not hundreds or a few million). It's interesting that instead we chose to build things for everybody and nobody.
