Congrats on the launch, y'all! Getting to use Gowalla again for the last several months has been a treat. Looking forward to what comes next, and to having so many more of my friends on!

This seems to be better at analyzing content for clichés, common idioms, and following common patterns more than it detects whether it was authored by AI. I pasted in things that tend to follow patterns and stick to tradition, like wedding vows, and it the content detector was pretty convinced they were AI authored (33% human score). Meanwhile, I pasted in some wedding vows I got from Chat-GPT...

Figma plugin?

As a developer, I don't have time to be an expert in every tool and platform, so I focus on the ones with the broadest coverage. Sadly, by effectively requiring an established business earning upwards of $1M/yr, it's not viable to launch an ecommerce business on Bolt, and that means it's not something I can afford to become familiar with and recommend to clients.

Pricing is too complicated between limits on revenue, feature differences, limits on product quantities (and further rules based on their type), limits on variant quantities, limits on API calls, and bandwidth varying between plans. If I can't anticipate the costs and constraints, I can't recommend it to clients, so it doesn't get used.

As someone who is quasi-familiar with the complexities of the crappy decisions by the WAI on color contrast and readability standards that are now encoded into WCAG (and §508), I'm skeptical. What can you tell us about how you've developed and tested these for accessibility? Does the system have any specs or expectations for implementation, or is this purely a visual-accessibility play? In any...

I really don't like that you're using somewhat ambiguous language to create a perceived association with Figma. This seems better suited to the new Community Profiles than it does a Plugin, anyways.

I think Osano is a great idea, but 1) it's a lot of work to implement, so a free “solopreneur” plan isn't actually feasible, and 2) the limitations on the free plan make signing up once business is established more expensive. So while I might recommend Osano for someone else, I know it's not for me. Which is all to say that I'm not going to give you my personal email address for this privacy...

No privacy policy? For a free app that seems to be sending to content to the cloud, this sets off an alarm. The lack of a mention about Edgy Labs or whatever `seo.app` is makes it seem even more like it's just bait.

No tethering permitted. Also, capped video resolution (which is silly since they aren't saving much data that way anyways). Probably great for people that don't rely on a cellular connection for laptop-based work in emergencies.

The interface is fairly spartan; I suspect this is the first time this developer has had to design their own product. There aren't any bookmark thumbnails or colors. Your bookmarks page is just a list of several hundred mostly-identical items, and they don't have real search, just “filters”, so you aren't going to get relevancy ranking, which is a bummer because it's built into tools like...

I used to use Stache for my bookmarks before d3i abandoned the product (despite being paid). Stache was amazing for a couple reasons: when you bookmarked a webpage they captured the HTML and a really good full-page screenshot. They used the HTML to search and to render a preview of the page later if you were offline, and the screenshot was used for a thumbnail and to let you view the page as it...

This was so clearly developed by people who don't use tape measures. The body width is a fraction that doesn't easily compute. You can't measure inner dimensions (e.g. of a cabinet). The lack of markings on the string means you have to hold the tape measure right at the edge of what you want to measure, and then be at an angle where you can read the screen. It doesn't appear to support...

Good stuff.
