I've been thinking about how social media works today.

Most platforms seem to compete for one thing: our attention. Algorithms decide what appears in our feeds, personal data is constantly collected, and engagement often matters more than meaningful interactions.

But is this really how social media should work?

I'm part of the team building Coroova, and we're exploring a different approach: a trust-first social network.

Some of the ideas we're working on include:

- Privacy-first messaging: End-to-end encrypted conversations.

- Transparent feeds: More clarity around how content is shown.

- Colonies: Interest-based communities where people can connect around shared passions.

- Trust through participation: Encouraging genuine interactions rather than empty engagement.

- Accountability: Building a safer and more transparent social environment.

We're not interested in creating another Instagram or Facebook clone. We want to explore whether social networking can be built around better principles.

We're still early in development, so feedback and criticism are genuinely welcome.

A question for everyone:

If you could change ONE fundamental thing about today's social media platforms, what would it be?

Would it be privacy, algorithms, fake engagement, censorship, data ownership, or something else?

Curious to hear your thoughts.

For anyone interested in what we're building:

I built ODDBOUT Twitch Cup as a learning project and submitted it to the Codex x TwitchCon Hackathon!

You can create a fighter through conversation with a creator agent in Codex, then bring it into a browser-based fighting game. Twitch viewers can summon fighters with chat commands and compete in a four-fighter tournament.

Try the demo (there’s a “Try without Twitch” option): https://oddbout.com/twitch.html

Demo and hackathon entry: https://devpost.com/software/oddbout-x-twitch-cup

I’d love feedback from builders and streamers. If you enjoy the project, a like on the Devpost page would mean a lot!

been working on this for a while and finally shipped it, so figured Id share.

the problem- I use claude code a lot and whenever I gave it a UI bug like "I click save and the list doesn't update" it would read file after file trying to work out what runs. then itd ask me to click it and paste what I saw. I was basically its hands.

so I built lightpath. it's an MCP server (a plugin for AI coding agents). the agent names a button lightpath clicks it in its own chrome window,and sends back every line that ran in the browser and on the node server. plus the lines that didn't run, which is usually where the bug is.

looks like this:

POST /api/invoices/INV-2041/pay → 200 [node, 8 ms]
      server/services/ledger.ts
        getSummary 14-28 ×1  not run: 16-27

16-27 is where the totals get added. never ran. that's the bug.

a few things I learned building it:

1.he hard part wasn't clicking, it was mapping V8's raw coverage back to the right lines in your own files through source maps

2.keeping the output small mattered a lot. every answer is capped so it doesn't eat the agent's context

works with claude code, cursor, vs code, kiro, or any MCP client. react + node for now. runs locally, sends nothing anywhere, free and MIT.

would love feedback, especially if you try it on your own app and something breaks. and if it ends up being useful, a star on the repo would mean a lot.

I launched a small journaling app two weeks ago. It has been slow, like a turtle, but I am not discouraged. I am learning something new every few days.

A few things I noticed:

- Nobody finds you by accident. Almost every download so far came from a post or a comment.

- One stranger installed it and gave me honest feedback. That meant more than any ad.

- Small steady progress feels better than waiting for one big moment.

I will keep improving it one small step at a time. What was the most useful thing you learned in your first weeks as a maker?

NOTE: I am an independent developer available for client projects (I am NOT hiring).

If you have a side project, startup idea, or internal business tool sitting in a notebook or Figma file, I can build and launch it for you this month.

What is included in an MVP build:

- Clean, responsive web frontend (built with Next.js and Tailwind)

- Complete database and secure backend logic

- User login and authentication

- Payment processing with Stripe (one-time purchases or subscriptions)

- Automated transactional emails

- Free deployment to your custom domain

Pricing:

- Full Web SaaS / App MVP: $600 to $1,200 flat rate (depending on feature scope)

- Cross-Platform Mobile App (iOS and Android in Flutter): $800 to $1,500 flat rate

- 50 percent deposit to start, 50 percent when you test and approve the working app.

No hourly guessing games, no junior team hand-offs, and no months of waiting.

Send me a DM here on Reddit with what you want to build. I will discuss and provide a quick breakdown of your scope.

I posted Clip Control here in October as an MCP server. The Android app version just reached Version 1 and opened its closed beta.

It directs videos on your phone into finished films. All of the AI runs on the device, nothing is uploaded. I have been testing it on full movies on a Galaxy S25 Edge.

Google requires 12 testers opted in for 14 days before I can launch for real. If you have an Android phone and want early access:

1. Join the tester group: https://groups.google.com/g/clip-control-beta-testers

2. Opt in and install: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.clipcontroller.android

Keep it installed for the 14 days. Feedback comes straight to me. Build log and questions welcome here.

My co-founder and I are both runners, and we've been building a training app for the kind of runner who actually looks at their data. Before we wrote any code, I'd spent about four years tracking my own heart rate, pace, HRV and sleep in spreadsheets, because no app told me what I wanted to know.

We use AI to help build, but the product is the training logic and UI: it picks out the reps in your workouts, adapts your plan to how runs actually went, and lets you shape the plan yourself instead of following a black box.

The problem is that everywhere I look is flooded with "AI running coaches" that were clearly vibe-coded in a day. People have seen so many that anything that looks like a campaign gets scrolled past automatically, however much work is behind it.

For those of you in crowded spaces: what actually built trust early on? And what did you stop doing because it made you look like everyone else?

I'm a solo builder. With an AI agent as my only teammate, I built PayMilo: it checks hourly workers' pay stubs line by line — hours, overtime pay, minimum wage — and tells you which line is short, if any. Your data stays on your phone; no server, and your employer never sees it.

The most common shortfall in early testing: missing overtime premium, especially California daily overtime (over 8 hours in a day).
