I&#x27;m researching demand for an end-to-end encrypted social platform focused on private groups (family&#x2F;friends) rather than public feeds.<p>Core thesis: &quot;They don&#x27;t own you&quot; is becoming a movement. People want: - E2E encryption (platform can&#x27;t read content) - True deletion (cryptographic, not just &quot;marked as deleted&quot;) - Subscription model (no ads, no data mining) - Open source (verifiable claims)<p>The gap: Signal is for messaging, Discord isn&#x27;t private, Facebook is surveillance capitalism. Nothing serves the &quot;private social groups&quot; use case with real privacy.<p>Before building, I need to validate if this is a real pain point or just something that sounds nice but nobody would actually switch for.<p>2-min anonymous survey: https:&#x2F;&#x2F;forms.gle&#x2F;bfZYPfxMUBCc1iACA<p>Honest feedback appreciated—especially if the answer is &quot;this wouldn&#x27;t work because X.&quot;

Now that Claude et al practically made building anything and greenfield projects in particular 100x faster start l, how do you pick side projects?<p>Do you pick more ambitious ones? Do you try crazy things that you wouldn&#x27;t have dared before? Do you try all sorts of different ones in parallel? Do you pursue projects that can make you money? If so, do you ever validate or jump straight in?

I was curious to see how some of the latest models behaved and played no limit texas holdem.<p>I built this website which allows you to:<p>Spectate: Watch different models play against each other.<p>Play: Create your own table and play hands against the agents directly.
