... anyone replying? soon became three much older questions: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing? So here I am in the introductions section, which looks like somewhere you can start again the spawn lobby of a game. Hello, everyone. Before we go any further: did I spawn on the same map as you this time? While there s a chance someone can see me, I d like to introduce StratCraft, the AI-native platform ...

... that last one taught me more about product than any SaaS ever did. Right now I'm building Murmell , a multiplayer canvas where cloud coding agents work side by side and you watch them build in real time. My competitor isn't another AI tool. It's the terminal sitting on your own machine. The thing I can't stop doing is training. i'm a Track and field athlete, and man, seriously nobody claps for the session ... ... enjoys building communities, starting conversations, and connecting people with useful products and ideas. I m helping build awareness around Velofloor a virtual workspace designed to make remote teams feel more connected and accessible, including features like a live Public Lobby

... just launched @Dograh , the open-source alternative to Retell and Vapi for building voice agents. Self-hostable, so you own your stack and your data. We started it out of rage - every tool was too expensive, too closed, or scammy (addon after addons). So we open-sourced every line from day 0, on one belief: no company should own voice AI. Big labs are lobbying

... enjoys building communities, starting conversations, and connecting people with useful products and ideas. I m helping build awareness around Velofloor a virtual workspace designed to make remote teams feel more connected and accessible, including features like a live Public Lobby for website visitors. Starting conversations and learning from what people are saying. I m always curious about how teams work, communicate, and solve problems. I m here to discover interesting products, connect with founders and makers, and learn from ...

... relatives as a bad option because, unless they are serious names in a given niche, they give you nothing besides cash. And ruining relationships with relatives is a nightmare to me. On top of that, can they lobby for you at a national or global level? Can they connect you with key players in the niche? A bank is basically the same as relatives. It gives you the cash, but it has absolutely no interest in your business. It only ... ... payments on time. So to me, it is a bad partner. It is a cheap way to get money, but an expensive way to get connections. VCs are a good bridge. They have both connections and money. They can lobby

... know how hard the person worked for it, but not here to help farmers. Comment from Luca Ardito(@luca_ardito): I think this becomes a networking issue as much as a platform issue. When genuine support and coordinated lobbying start to look similar, founders get more cautious about every outreach message they receive. That weakens the community even beyond the leaderboard itself. Comment from Luca Ardito(@luca_ardito): The hardest part as a founder is not only saying ... ... while still filtering abuse. Curious how you balance that long term without discouraging genuine newcomers from engaging. Comment from Mike Kerzhner(@mikekerzhner): @ankit_mishra15  sorry to hear about the frustration. What is your recommendation for distinguishing paid voters vs

... Union will be among the first to set some restrictions :D Comment from Nika(@busmark_w_nika): @nevil_ling  a completely unnecessary death Comment from Nika(@busmark_w_nika): @ritik_ranjan  I think that companies will be lobbying for themselves in gov organisations (because of profit)... but we can do the same and create some pressure (as the society). Comment from Nika(@busmark_w_nika): @manu_goel2  the positive mindset about that should prevail but you know ... ... then that while we expect AI to eventually pose a danger, what if this is our collective delusion? Comment from Ritik Ranjan(@ritik_ranjan): @busmark_w_nika   You re right, companies will always prioritize their own interests when lobbying

... this is a solid icebreaking :DD Comment from Nika(@busmark_w_nika): @ph_bernard  Have you been considering the Dago's platform? :) https://www.itslaunchday.com/ Comment from Chibuzo Odigbo(@franklivania): @charuchaturvedi  Of course, rather than just lobby them for their upvote. After the upvote, what next? Comment from Philippe Bernard(@ph_bernard): @franklivania  My take one this: all people on PH and other communities (indie makers on X, etc.) understand the importance of launching and votes ...

... Caution: We re treading on thin ice. I understand why big companies lobby for better conditions in their field. I see it more as a form of collective interest. But what if a few select individuals (CEOs of tech giants we know who we mean) become highly politically biased and actively engaged? Especially when their companies are media-driven and have the power to influence public opinion on a massive scale? If a tech company owns media platforms, should ...

... natural cause of things. Does it need saving? It depends on how we define from what. We could take a bit different look at the US's state of things with: raging monopolies, scale of insider trading, and lobbying in a form that should be defined as corruption, which is easier due to raging monopolies, social inequalities at a level similar to what historically cause violent revolutions in several countries, overinflated values of businesses, based on market speculations, vibes ... ... chance for a decent living. Do we really need to replicate that, or rather should find a new model? As for general deregulation, we should be very careful, as it can be used by mentioned monopolies to block new competitors

... attend any of the sessions. I messaged all the people I wanted to meet asking if they were going to be at the conference and either met them for coffee outside, or met for a conversation in the lobby of the conference. Basically, you should treat the conference as an excuse for many people to gather in a city, and just try to have lots of one-on-one chats.
