Built with love on weekends by Faiyaz!
In the closing months of 2022, a simple desire sparked the creation of MyLikes. I wanted to share my classical music playlist with friends, giving them a chance to engage with it, and most importantly, to track how each recommendation resonated.
Sure, existing platforms allowed sharing, but none were designed specifically for recommendations. That's where MyLikes steps inβit does one thing exceptionally well: it lets users share recommendations with a wealth of features. And here's the kicker β it's free forever.
We're all about recommendations β pure and simple. π

@faiyaz_shaikh Hi, we create Web Operating System with own app store, where users get software from. Your app is amazing and we decided to enable you to share it to our users π Can we talk?
It is great to hear about this launch @faiyaz_shaikh's - it focuses on recommending great things. I'm sure it will be super helpful and fun to use! Well done!
Wow, Faiyaz! It's great to see your passion in creating MyLikes. I'm curious, what inspired you to focus specifically on recommendations? And how did you ensure that the user experience is top-notch? Keep up the good work! π
@goyashy Thanks for your kind words! I've been building online products since the age of 12, so I think I'm used to it.
And regarding focusing only on recommendations, I've explained here: https://mylikes.page/about

Finally, an app to curate and share recommendations effortlessly. Bravo!
Simplicity is what makes this look interesting.
Could you tell more about your plans to keep it free forever, while hosting the platform and the related data (links mostly), and mitigations ideas regarding spam?
@yozamu
1. I was thinking of opening a link ad on every 3rd recommendation visit (including first).
2. I'm also considering allowing users to promote their recommendations on the platform. The featured recommendations would be visible on every list page. We already have a way to get users on waiting list.
What do you think of these 2 monetization strategies?
@faiyaz_shaikh To be honest ads are usually a no go for me, since it really breaks the UX, and could be especially bad in the case of such a "simple" flow you're supposed to have there. Hence why I'd go for the second option for sure, but it's only my opinion
