I really like the idea, actually. First, what I'd say is that a lot of people may comment here on HN with very "objective" opinions on whether it's a good or bad idea. I want to remind you that those "objective" statements are just subjective opinions, and that while those people may represent a large percentage of the population, they also might just represent a small percentage. And even if they represent a large percentage, you don't need a large percentage of the population to start or even run a successful business.

With that being said, I think what I would like to see you do is try to use your own platform to raise a marketing budget. What services would you offer to try to raise the budget? Why are you trying to raise the budget?

What I like about the platform is a combination of charity and work, the blend of GoFundMe and TaskRabbit. So what I'd like to see is 1) why are you trying to raise this money, why is it meaningful to you and 2) what range of services can you provide, basically what hustles can you do, to give back to those who give?

Yeah, I like this idea a lot, another user also recommended something similar. As I don't have a marketing budget right now, creating a campaign to raise funds for it makes a lot of sense and it would show people how the platform really works. Thanks a lot!

I'm glad you like it. I imagine you have plenty of services that people might want to receive from you, even I'm sitting here thinking I'd rather give money to someone like you to give me some feedback on my website UIs because I also want to support what you're working on, than a random person on TaskRabbit or fiverrr or any of those more impersonal websites.
