- balamatom 5mo agoYou mean, like, every other social network?
- officialchicken 5mo agoYesterday I was bragmaxxing when it hit me. Here's what they don't tell you: It's early and they're missing some important features.
- wewewedxfgdf 5mo agoA novelty site should require no login for a 10 second look laugh and bounce out.
- popey 5mo agoIt took a bit of clicking, but no login needed to see the "feed". https://cringeout.com/feed https://cringeout.com/feed
- thrownthatway 5mo agoUnless it chained in the last 31 minutes, the Feed link is literally top-centre of the homepage.
- CringeOut 5mo agoPosts are public for now.
- collabs 5mo ago> Password must contain at least one special character (!@#$%^&*...) Why?
- vintermann 5mo agoThat authentic bad corporate practice experience. https://password policies.cs.princeton.edu It hasn't become better since 2022 from what I've seen (for instance from my inbox 5 minutes ago, demanding yet another password rotation with a new and longer list of obnoxious requirements)
- CringeOut 5mo agoAdded Google login as alternative option.
- vitamark 5mo agoI thought we already have LinkedIn for that?
- CringeOut 5mo agoWe need cringe overflow or only fans for professional world.
- MarceColl 5mo agoSo linkedin?
- ramon156 5mo agoJust open up LinkedIn. I've never seen so much cringe in one tab. This includes some people I respect because they're good programmers. Why lower yourself to corporate slop
- ramon156 5mo agoAlso sorry to say but the posts do not capture the genuine cringe I get from LinkedIn. Cringe has layers see https://cringeout.com/feed https://cringeout.com/feed
- astura 5mo agoWe have LinkedIn at home.
- Obscurity4340 5mo ago, Honey
- dmacj 5mo ago"authenticity meets audacity." - I thought this is what blind was for?
- monegator 5mo agoFun ideas are always fun. That said, i am really tired of seeing every new website looking exactly like each other
- CringeOut 5mo agoAgree, I notice these patterns too, just good to create quick MVPs to validate idea.
- Rodmine 5mo agoFinally LinkedIn has some competition.

- lschueller 5mo agoAnother bait for grabbing user emails, another opportunity for a leaked database of as such! Why are there still sites, where you have to sign up with a disposable email address and waste everyones time? If you AI slop a website on your way to work, at least keep it accessible.
- karangosrani 5mo agoGreat idea but you have to stick to your design language throughout the pages. The pill buttons become boxy on the feed page. The whole nav changes as well that damages user experience.
- CringeOut 5mo agoThanks for the feedback. Aim was to implement basic functionality like posting, commenting, sharing, reacting, which should work well and then build or pivot from there.
- twisteriffic 5mo agoI had never heard anyone say "I'd like to double-click on that" until yesterday and now it's following me everywhere...
- CringeOut 5mo agoHad to drill down to find what "double-click on that" means...
