Show HN: I made a website that finds your hobbies based on your email

[loyai]

I built a website that uses OSINT to determine an email owner's interests and hobbies based on their online activity.

Many people underestimate what OSINT is truly capable of.

[email I use for interpersonal and official communications]: no interests found

[email for thinks I’m not willing to share or publicly associate with myself]: results: "programming"

[email for everything else]: results: "programming (yes), freelance (not reaaaly), graphic design (15 years ago), Hiking (yes, how did it get that?!!)

Cool tool and I’d be glad to click on a "how does that work" page. Since you mention OSINT here I’ll have a look at it. The changing header line (magic/intel/osint) is a hint but also a bit confusing as magic is obviously not serious and intel as many meanings.

thank you so much for the feedback!

I will definitely show "how does that work" in the future

That captcha was awful, I almost gave up at third one. Citing sources for results would be useful, if that's possible.

[loyai]

kind of a rate-limiting technique but i'll try to make it better, as for the sources I might do that in the future

[asymptotix]

Mine was reasonable, but barely a fraction of what I’d say I spend most of my time doing online.

It definitely has its limitations, but I think it's good enough for a start, might add a few more as well
