Congrats! 3k a month is a already a nice side hustle. Are you personally using the app a lot? I'm asking because I've also had the idea of a language learning chatbot, put together a quick POC but found it super boring super fast. Also, I've found it difficult to learn new words, because when you are speaking, you are only using the words you already know. At the end, I've abandoned the chatbot project idea and... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

Hi, if it would be sufficient for you to read websites, I'm building https://vokabeln.io, though the concept is a bit different, focusing more on flashcards and spaced-repetition. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

And yet again, I'm promoting my app on HN. SRS flashcards, sentences and audio generated with AI, Wiktionary, YouTube, Webbrowser integration: https://vokabeln.io (landing page is old) Only works for German right now, but I'll be adding Spanish and English in the coming months. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

My biggest side projects come from being almost mad that a certain project does not exist. For example, I've seen a lot of gif memes on the internet, in which the text was always very badly jumping around and it was very difficult to make them. So I've spent a few hundreds of hours making https://gifmemes.io. (actually as my bc.

At least as far as Hacker News is concerned, I'd call htmx way more marketed. It has hundreds of HN submissions in the past year alone [0] including one that broke 1000 points, compared to Hotwire which is sitting at about 40 submissions in the past year [1], the most popular of which is this one.

Authorities compel tech companies to hand over data and place backdoors. They typically abuse secrecy laws to avoid public backlash, but their public demands have gotten bolder since the Snowden disclosures. https://www.reuters.com/technology/cybersecurity/governments-spying-apple-google-users-through-push-notifications-us-senator-2023-12-06/... - Source: Hacker News / 5 days ago

Yes but please try to avoid repetition on HN. The GP's response was rude and broke the site guidelines but https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&query=hachyderm.io%2F%40inthehands&sort=byDate&type=comment does look excessive to me. - Source: Hacker News / 6 days ago
