> it doesn't appear to be in a useable state

Just like the last time they posted, it was nothing other than marketing, it literally had none of the Loom features (not even video sharing... which is the entire point of Loom)

Hey I'm trying here it takes time to build something as large as this solo. It's been around 4 months of working on this full-time. I need to be marketing the app at the same time otherwise I'd be launching to crickets. The app is already being used by early access testers in our Discord.

Cap is a full cross-platform Loom alternative. Video sharing is literally the heart of the app and the entire point of it.

Here's a screenshot of a Cap.link shareable link: https://twitter.com/richiemcilroy/status/1767619147674915091

No one is objecting to the time it takes to build something. They are objecting to what is starting to feel to them like spam marketing. HN will be far more receptive when you have a thing people can try themselves. Until then, not so much.

Currently in early access testing with folks in our Discord.

Will be available publicly soon!
