I was a lobster user for 7y. but i find it now way to big, and moderation is strange sometimes. I think, having an additional community is nice. No need to concentrate everybody in one or two website. And there are multiple communities already! I thought I can build one with not such restrictive self-promo rules as on lobster.
it's just that most of the self promotion going on over here is ai slop nowadays (oh you vibe coded an app? the whole "point" of it is that anyone can do it, so your vibecoded thing is completely uninteresting).
And you want more of that? Does not compute, for me
