Hi everyone! So one day, I discovered MASSIVE communities on FB and Instagram dedicated to classic films! Especially the "Golden Age of Hollywood" from 1910s to 60s. But I found that there wasn't a well-polished streaming app dedicated to them. I decided to make one! A friend of mine joined me on this journey, she works on community and curation. The classic film community has been awesome and a lot of the folks are millennials and GenZ which I didn't expect! Plus, I catch a lot of pop-culture references now 😎. The app currently has public domain movies only. We're constantly adding more and working on features to make discovery easier. HLS streaming makes the videos fast too ⚡. If you have an Android phone, check it out! I'd love to get feedback. Also, I am trying to do some #buildinpublic stuff on my Twitter if you want to follow the journey 🙂 Cheers!

I really believe that classic movies were much better and interesting than a new one. Good luck! Congrats on the launch! Great product!

Really cool trip down memory lane, great publicity for old films especially for Gen Zs (like myself)! Love it :)
