Hey, fellas!
Are there any websites to find games like Cooptimus (or whatever the proper name is)?
It is a good one, but it lacks to many searching features and the UI is… outdated, well, makes sense, it is an old site.
Hello, folks!
Long story short:
I’ve never built content-gated solutions, authentication, etc. However, my current client needs it and I’m looking for ideas how to approach it efficiently.
The thing is I want the solution to fit my “stack”. While some of you might say that me using Webflow (a visual code builder, basically) does not fit this subreddit and I should GTFO, I hope there will be others that understand that, at least, Webflow is a good way into learning webdev and code while getting results quickly.
I haven’t been learning code “properly”, but I do it just by practicing slowly. While I cannot write a website from scratch, I can, at least, understand the code and work with it: be it by googling, my own experience, or using LLMs (no vibecoding though).
My situation is this:
I switched my client from Airtable to Baserow relatively recently — while Baserow is not as feature-rich as Airtable, it is a great alternative. And, most importantly, it can be self-hosted (MIT license for the core functionality). My client uses Baserow as CMS, CRM, invoice management, etc. They have websites made on Webflow and I use Make to sync data from Baserow to Webflow CMS.
Baserow is pretty good and all, but it also has Application Builder, which can be used to create user accounts and attach various data from Baserow tables into it.
The issue is that while it is a simplest and most straightforward solution right now, it will cost US$4 per user (pricing based on MAU) — which is mindboggling, imo. It is free right now, because it is in the beta, and I will suggest it to a client, but I do not think it is a reasonable pricing for their car, at least.
So this context leads to me making this post, asking the community for ideas:
What solutions do you recommend?
Again, the point is not to create a solution from scratch, handcoding and self-hosting lots of things just to make it work. It should be “integrated” with the current “stack” — I do not need it to be used in Webflow necessarily, but it should get the related data from Baserow (well, it should have an API, so I can connect it via Make).

I’m doing the research myself and I already have a few ideas like using MemberStack — Outsetta is good too, I guess, but it is pricier and has more tools that, probably, are not needed.
Honestly speaking, my very short research is only at this point, and besides the aforementioned tools, the only solution that comes to mind is creating auth “myself”, aka using something like Supabase — but while it is super interesting to do, and I am working on a personal project today probably will use Supabase, I do not really want to offer this to a client, because I imagine it will be a lot of work and takes lots of time, so the cost of the solution will be really big one (so they might turn it down, but, well, it is just an option among others).
REALLY IMPORTANT that the solution will have email and password login and/or Magic Link (aka get the code to your email and enter it to login). Social logins are cool, but they do not fit the needs of this project.

Thank you all for the replies in advance!
P.S:
On a side note, learning code is really fun, while I do hate AI companies for many reasons, LLMs are a great tool in learning code: they can explain you whatever and you can learn why something is not working step-by-step, and this thing will be, uhm, curated (?) for you.
P.P.S:
Apologies if this post is kinda scrambled, I wrote it not so long ago after I woke up on my phone, haha. Also, sorry for not including any text formatting aside from paragraphs — flarking Reddit app doesn’t have a “fancy editor” on mobile, and I don’t know Markdown by heart.
Hey, folks!
I am a relatively new player. Missed rescuing a poor guy who could pay out my Bloodline Price, then gathered enough money to pay it out, but decided to go to sleep since I didn’t find Rissa (I think it is her) outside my house, but… yeah, lost my house… I had 150 coins, at least, haha.
Well, I decided to explore nearby (literally, did not visit any Bandit Camps or Ancient Ruins) territory a bit and when I did it, decided to get magic at the mountain.
Fast forward, I got there, killed the mobs, was a tough fight, but then before I got the magic, I noticed Glacial dinosaur — this mf cooked me plenty of times, but I managed to cheese it (almost died!) in its cave, since there is a small hole it could not crawl through.
And now to the topic of my question: I got “Gep’s Generosity” — I googled it and turns out it is a (very?) late game item.
Now I really do not know what to do: it seems like it is a very-very rare item or the one that can be obtained from Unknown Arenas which are quite hard.
I do not mind to carry it with me, since it is 0.2 weight, but I really struggle with carrying stuff — I have like a lot, the Nomad Backpack is almost always full.
So what are your suggestions? Should I sell it or just carry it with myself for a time being? Should I go somewhere straightaway to craft a cool weapon?
Anyway, I will appreciate all the tips.
If it know where I can find an even larger backpack, then I will appreciate it too, hahahaha.
