HN caps it at 2000 character but here are a couple more. Let me know what you think

5. There are no good tools for building my church’s community online

"This might sound a little weird but I am part of a congregation (church) and I wish that we could have a way to build our community online. I imagine something that combines Slack, Facebook Live, Shopify and Patreon.” All of these things can be done independently today but a software that bundles everything together would remove a ton of friction.

6. There is a need for tools (e.g. CRMs) for creators that will make use of Instagram’s new Checkout feature.

"This week Instagram launched checkout. There’s a massive opportunity to help a new generation of creators and creatives more easily become entrepreneurs." These sellers will be phone-only, and there are no good CRMs and adjacent tools to help these creators manage their business.

7. In the US It's extremely hard to compare prices across hospitals

"Hospitals in the USA are now required to publish online price lists of the services they provide. I hope someone is working to aggregate and make these easily searchable/comparable."

8. I wish there was something like MoviePass but for museums and other attractions

“It sucks that I have to pay $25 to go to SFMoMa. As a college student I got free access to all of these museums in New York. I wish there was something like MoviePass but for museums and stuff like that.”

9. A good karaoke app out there (for individuals or bars) is something that doesn't exist

“For a while now I've been trying to find a good Karaoke app that works with Spotify or Apple Music but there's nothing out there. Smule and Musixmatch are ok for lyrics but this isn't actually Karaoke. The same thing applies for Karaoke bars. They either use YouTube or some crappy software. One app that creates a great user experience for individuals and clubs/djs/bars etc. could be a game changer.”

Number 8 is a fantastic idea -- as a resident of nyc I would happily pay for this. Especially if you created family oriented packages/pricing.
