Made a platform to help indie iOS apps get discovered

I built Stamped because finding great iOS apps started to feel like playing hide and seek.

The App Store tends to surface the same big brands year after year. Apps with large marketing budgets and established audiences get most of the visibility, while independent developers with genuinely useful apps often launch and disappear before anyone discovers them.
Then I started building my own apps and experienced the other side of the problem. Getting your app in front of real users is just as difficult as finding great apps in the first place.

That’s why I created Stamped.
Stamped is a community driven iOS app discovery platform where users can discover new apps, follow creators, leave ratings across five categories, and help quality apps gain visibility based on community feedback instead of marketing budgets.

If you’re an indie developer looking for more exposure, or someone who enjoys discovering apps beyond what’s featured on the App Store, I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Replit Introduces Free Mode to Expand What is Possible with AI

AI models are now capable and affordable enough to make once-unreachable outcomes practical. The opportunity for everyone to pursue and collaborate on ambitious ideas, spend less time on busywork, and raise the quality and creative output across disciplines is nearly here.

But using AI today still means choosing models, managing context, watching usage, and juggling a growing collection of sprawling tools. Intelligence is now abundant, but access remains complicated.

That’s why today we’re launching a faster, more cost efficient, and capable Replit:

  • Create up to 30X more with Free Mode: Free Mode is a new way to use Agent that lets you create 30x more with just your monthly subscription. Spend less time thinking about usage and more time bringing ideas to life.
  • A new UI that gets you straight to the outcome, fast: You can ideate, create, launch, and grow all in one solution, as Replit seamlessly transitions between simple chat and tasks to complex builds.

When you’re in Free Mode, every day tasks will no longer use credits, so whether you’re chatting, ideating, or running everyday tasks, you can create with freedom. This pairs the world’s most powerful AI software creation tool and agent with a mode designed for fast, high-value everyday tasks, giving users a true all-in-one option.

Core subscribers will now be able to create more than before on Replit using Free Mode, as well as up to 30 hours per month of chat. For just $20 per month, creating real, high-quality projects at scale with AI is now accessible.

A Faster User Experience That Goes Straight to the Outcome

We’ve redesigned the Replit experience to make it your daily driver: an intelligent, always-on collaborator that understands you, works at your speed, and can handle everything from quick questions and data analysis to complex builds and great designs.

With Replit, users can now get fast, accurate answers, suggestions, feedback, and analysis in seconds - without consuming usage credits in free mode. Because Agent understands the full context of your work, it can help you plan, ideate, shape, optimize, and explore ideas before shifting to a more complex build.

Maximize making on Replit

Today is a major step forward in our long-term goal of making software creation, and intelligence, accessible to anyone with an idea, regardless of technical background. You should just be able to express your intent and maximize what you can make.

Check out our blog for the full announcement and let us know your thoughts in the megathread below.

The team will be keeping an eye on all of your feedback over the next week and we appreciate you helping make Replit better for everyone!

Website review

Hey, I made this website for me and me friends to find a date to go on vacation. I have since been updating it and have it as a side project and I am hoping to scale it. Although I have improved many things there can still be things improved. If you guys would check it out and says if there is anything to improve I would love to hear it. Maybe you find it handy and will use it. Definitely tell your friends then. The website is prikdate.com

I built a browser-based social experiment: leave one irreversible pixel and one word, then pass the turn

I’m testing 1PixelStory, a small collective social experiment.

Each person can place one pixel per artwork, choose its color and attach a short message. The choice cannot be changed. Everyone arriving later can continue, improve or completely derail the result. Once the canvas is full, it becomes a permanent archived story.

I’d love a very specific test: open “Pass The Turn”, leave one pixel and one word, then pass the continuation link to somebody else:

https://www.1pixelstory.com/canvas.php?id=4

Afterwards, please tell me:

  • Was the goal clear within ten seconds?
  • What almost made you leave?
  • Did the social loop make you want to return?
  • Did anything break or feel awkward on mobile?

Blunt feedback, bugs and unexpected ideas are more useful than compliments.

My site went viral, and I'm so happy about it!

Website: https://NoSignups.net GitHub: https://github.com/BraveOPotato/FckSignups

Genuinely didn't expect it to blow up this much. I compiled videos from some of the creators who made videos about it here and honestly it makes me so happy!

The website is a directory of no-signup open-source tools you can use immediately in your browser. None of the tools are mine, I just collected them and made them searchable.

I have a few things cooking in the oven for the website, and here's some of them:

  • I looked up how to do RSS (seems like it's just a simple file I need to provide at /rss.xml) and hopefully I'll have it available for the users to come back and discover more open-source tools.

  • I plan on adding a change log so that users can come back and explore the newer found/added tools.

  • I plan on adding a sorting drop-down so that users can explore at their leisure.

What I've already done:

  • Thanks to the GitHub user Moamal-2000, the accessibility of the website was greatly improved! I mean by a mile! Appreciate all his work!

  • Included some SEO metadata tags for search engines. I didn't even know about JSON-LD before I started this.

  • Significantly improved the search so that searching video edit shows video-editor and edit video entries.

  • Kept adding entries that match the criterias. Although, slowing down a bit. I'm employing whatever in my disposal to dig for more tools, and hopefully some more will turn up.

We've also been collecting some tool suggestions from users about what tools they'd like added. The top ones so far are:

  • A tool to generate AI videos (obviously insanely impractical given the criterias the tools have to abide by, if not downright impossible with current ML models).

  • Something like CapCut Pro (or something like that?)

  • AI Image generators (possible with WebGPU), but haven't found any open-source, in-browser, no-signup entries.

  • and more found here

I just wanted to thank all the contributors who submitted PRs, tools, opened issues, and reported bugs. Hopefully average joes will learn about and use the website, and hopefully support the amazing people making all these wonderful open-source tools.

Peace & love

I built AURA UNIVERSE — a sleek family of Telegram Mini Apps (Music w/ Shazam, ASMR Mixer, Tarot/Astro, B2B AI Assistant). Need your feedback on the UX!

Hey Reddit!

I wanted to create a beautiful, lightweight experience right inside Telegram so users don’t have to install heavy separate apps. That’s how AURA was born.
It’s an independent project with 4 Mini Apps running from a single hub.

Here is what’s packed inside:

  • Aura Music: Way more than just a streamer. It features advanced mixing, sharing, playlists built out of other playlists, and full gesture control (swipe to skip tracks). It even has a built-in audio recognition tool (Shazam alternative) with an expanded database to catch rare tracks.
  • Aura ASMR: A fully custom sound mixer. Users can blend different ambient sounds, adjust the individual volume of every single element in their mix, and use a built-in sleep timer (a must-have for overnight listening).
  • Aura Astro: Includes moon phases, daily horoscopes, compatibility checks, and interactive Tarot readings with direct questions to the cards and instant sharing.
  • Aura AI (Personal & Business Assistant): Designed to handle daily tasks and customer management. It acts as a smart B2B tool: processes incoming leads/requests, automatically adds tasks to your kanban board, and sends smart reminders about meetings and plans. It reads text, images, and voice/video notes, and can be trained on your specific business knowledge base.

🌐 Check the web hub here: uniaverse.com

🎁 Free Extra Premium for Reddit:
Every new user instantly gets a 1-week free trial inside the bots to test everything out. However, for the Reddit community, I want to double down! If you need more time to explore the features or if your trial runs out, just drop me a DM here. I’ll gladly send you a special promo code to extend your premium access for an extra week+ in exchange for your honest feedback.

💼 Built-in Telegram RevShare (30% Lifetime):
For marketers and creators: we’ve integrated the official Telegram Affiliate system. It’s not my personal link — you generate your unique referral link directly inside Telegram, and the platform handles the 30% lifetime revenue sharing and automatic payouts.

Shipped my fitness app as a PWA instead of going native. Two days in, here are the three things that actually bit me.

Web app only, so I think this is on topic. FlexScan: you upload 3 photos, GPT-4o vision grades each muscle group A+ to D, and it builds a 7 day workout around whatever came out weakest. Runs in a browser tab on any phone, installable, no app store.

I went PWA because I'm one non-technical person and there was no way I was surviving two native codebases plus a review queue. Two days live now. What that decision actually cost me:

1. The service worker cache is a loaded gun pointed at your own app. I had one cache with oldest-first eviction once it hit a size cap. My app shell files were the oldest thing in there, so they were the first thing evicted, and the installed app cold started to "You're offline". A native app gets its bundle managed for it and this failure mode doesn't exist. Fix was three separate budgets inside one cache instead of one global cap.

2. Cache versioning is manual and nothing warns you when you get it wrong. The only thing that clears my pinned shell cache is a version string I bump by hand in sw.js. Miss it on a deploy and every dead JS and CSS chunk stays pinned on people's phones indefinitely, and they are quietly running old code with no signal that anything is off. That should be generated at build time. Mine still isn't.

3. "Install" is not a concept normal users have. There is no button that means what the App Store button means. On iOS it's a share sheet item a few taps deep that nobody goes looking for. I have almost no users yet so I'm not going to pretend I have conversion numbers, but everyone I've actually watched try it just used it in the tab and never installed it.

What it bought, and why I'd do it again: I push a fix and everyone has it on next load. No review queue, no version fragmentation, no users stuck three releases back, one codebase, and nobody taking 30% of a $9.99/mo subscription. For a solo person that tradeoff isn't close.

First scan is free with no card if anyone wants to poke holes in it: flexscan.app. Photos are processed in memory and never stored, and the output is a coaching opinion, not medical advice.

Happy to go deeper on any of the service worker stuff, that's where all the real pain was.

JWT vs Database Sessions for Web App Authentication

I'm building a web application and need to implement one authentication/authorization mechanism for a project.

I'm considering:

  • JWT
  • JWE
  • Database-backed sessions

Which approach would you recommend for a typical web application, and why? I'm especially interested in security, complexity, scalability, and ease of implementation.

Thanks!

I built a creator-first social + live streaming app — just launched on Google Play

Hey everyone — I've been building SovereignStream, a social + live streaming app
focused on creators. The core idea: you should see exactly what you keep on tips
and subscriptions, not get hit with cuts you didn't know about.

What it does:
- Post and build a full profile (not just a link-in-bio card)
- Go live, with the option to invite co-hosts
- Tips and subscriptions with the fee split shown up front
- An identity-verification system meant to make the platform safer without
  policing what people say

It just went live on Google Play, free: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sovereignstream.app
(iOS is in progress.)

This is early — I'd genuinely rather hear what's broken or missing than just get
downloads. Happy to answer questions about how any of it works.

I wanted foot traffic data without buying hardware

A lot of small businesses could benefit from knowing how many people actually walk through the door, but buying and installing a dedicated people-counting system doesn’t always make sense.

That’s why I’ve been building PeopleCounter.app.
You can use a phone, tablet, computer, or webcam to start tracking visitors and keep the data organized in one dashboard.

What I think gets overlooked is that even basic traffic data can answer some useful questions:
• Are Saturdays actually busier than Fridays?
• What hours are we getting the most visitors?
• Did that promotion bring in more people?
• Are we getting busier without seeing the same increase in sales?

I’m trying to make this accessible for smaller retailers, churches, events, museums, and other organizations that just want a simple place to start.

There’s a free version at PeopleCounter.app.

Would be interested to hear what other metrics you’d want alongside the visitor count.

App Metrics

Hi,

I built a super simple tool to solve a problem I kept running into: tracking only my apps earning metrics. Instead of juggling spreadsheets and notes, AppDeck gives you a simple overview your apps earning metrics. Nothing overcomplicated, just the basic tracking I actually needed. I am open to feedback!

What are you using to count visitors or foot traffic?

I built a free people counter because most counting software feels like overkill.

PeopleCounter.app lets you track visitors from your phone, tablet, computer, or webcam and see the results in a simple dashboard.

No dedicated hardware required to get started.

I’m curious what people are actually using visitor counts for beyond traditional retail. Churches? Events? Museums? Gyms? Libraries?

If you track foot traffic or attendance somewhere, what metrics would actually be useful to you?

Built Sendlyy: Instant browser-to-browser P2P file transfer using Node.js + WebRTC DataChannels

Hi devs!
I wanted a simple, zero-setup way to transfer media from phone to desktop without using cloud intermediaries. I built Sendlyy using WebRTC and native WebSockets for signaling.
**Technical Stack & Architecture:**
- **Signaling**: Lightweight Node.js/Express + WS signaling server (exchanges SDP offers/answers & ICE candidates).
- **Data Transfer**: Native `RTCDataChannel` directly between browser instances.
- **Privacy**: 0 bytes of file data stored on server, rooms automatically self-destroy after 15 minutes.
- **UX & i18n**: Responsive touch UI with drag/swipe mechanics and automatic GeoIP language detection across 9 languages.
Would love any feedback on the WebRTC reconnection handling or UX!

I built Instalaz and I’m looking for some honest feedback

I built Instalaz and I’m looking for some honest feedback

I’ve been working on Instalaz because managing multiple social accounts and a lot of posts gets messy pretty quickly.

It lets you bulk upload content, schedule posts, manage multiple accounts, schedule first comments, and keep everything organized in one place.

I’m still working on it, so I’d genuinely like to know what you think.

What would you add? What would you remove? And if you already use a social media scheduler, what do you wish it did better?

If you’re also building something, drop it below. I’m happy to check it out and give you feedback too.

Procuro pessoas para testar uma plataforma brasileira de organização de eventos e me dar feedback

Oi, pessoal! 👋

Estou desenvolvendo a Konekts, uma plataforma brasileira para ajudar pessoas a organizar eventos de forma mais simples, centralizando várias partes do planejamento em um só lugar.

O projeto ainda está em fase beta e eu queria testar com pessoas que não conhecem o sistema, justamente para entender se ele é intuitivo sem eu precisar explicar antes como funciona.

A Konekts tem uma assistente de IA chamada KIE, que ajuda a conduzir o planejamento, além de áreas para convidados, tarefas, orçamento, fornecedores, cálculo de comidas e bebidas, RSVP e outras partes da organização do evento.

O que eu mais preciso agora é de feedback de usabilidade. Quero entender coisas como:

  • o que ficou confuso;
  • onde você não soube o que fazer;
  • botões ou funções que não se comportaram como você esperava;
  • perguntas da IA que pareceram repetitivas ou desnecessárias;
  • funções que você procurou e não encontrou;
  • qualquer momento em que você teve vontade de desistir ou fechar o site.

Não precisa entender de tecnologia. Na verdade, o feedback de alguém usando como uma pessoa comum é exatamente o que eu estou procurando.

Missão do teste:

Imagine que você precisa organizar uma festa de aniversário para aproximadamente 40 a 60 pessoas. (Pode mudar a historia , como festa da empresa, aniversario do sobrinho, churrasco entre amigos ... etc)

Entre na Konekts, crie uma conta e tente começar a organizar esse evento usando o sistema. Não precisa testar tudo — use as funções que naturalmente chamarem sua atenção e tente organizar da forma que você achar mais lógica.

Link do beta:
https://konekts-beta.vercel.app

Se puder, depois me conte aqui nos comentários ou por mensagem privada como foi sua experiência.

E, se você também estiver desenvolvendo algum projeto e quiser feedback, posso testar o seu em troca. 🙂

Obrigado a quem puder ajudar!

Has anyone here built a scalable SaaS/web app with Cursor?

I’m curious to hear from people who have actually used Cursor to build a production/startup-level web app, especially one where users pay for subscriptions or premium features.

  1. Has anyone successfully built and monetized a SaaS using Cursor?

  2. What plugins or integrations did you use to improve your productivity and development workflow?

  3. How much of the app did you build with Cursor vs. manually?

  4. Is Cursor genuinely capable of taking an MVP all the way to a startup-level, scalable product?

  5. If you already have the MVP ready, is Cursor Pro enough, or is Pro+ worth the upgrade?

  6. How good is Composer when working with a larger existing codebase? Is it reliable enough for production development?

I’d especially love to hear from people who have real users or revenue from an app they built this way, rather than just small side projects.
Would be great to hear what worked for you, what didn’t, and what you’d do differently if you were starting again.
