The title says it all. Basically, a truly free alternative to r/SomebodyMakeThis that is not on Reddit (or should I say Reshit? 😎), to basically connect people who have time, and/or money, and/or skills (but no ideas of what to do with them) with people who have ideas and perhaps theoretical knowledge (but not time, and/or money, and/or skills).

I’m very good (I think) at programming theory, as well as broader computer science theory… But in practice I can barely make a (ugly and clunky) “Hello world” program in Python, and I have some pretty interesting and good (or at least I think so) ideas about software that would be really good if made (apps/programs, extensions, plugins and scripts for existing software, frameworks, libraries, algorithms, etc.).

Is there something like this on the Threadiverse? And if so, could you give me the abbreviated identifiers/handles of some of those communities? That is, your !community@instance.tld. I thank you in advance.

    Thanks for the invitation and advice! I would love to do it but I don’t know if I have the makings of a moderator. Although perhaps someone would be interested in moderating it, luckily that is Fediverse.

    Anyway, I’m not sure where or how to create a community on my clients (Blorp on Android and Photon PWA on desktop [along with Interstellar when I don’t want to—or can’t—have my browser open]).

    PS: It’s kind of funny the specificity of the percentage, I love it! 😄

      Honestly just making it is half the battle. After its made and started up you can get other moderators and hand over the community entirely.

      Its all momentum.
