Show HN: Peerdiem — Discover and discuss one painting a day

Hi everyone, I made Peerdiem (a portmanteau word between Peer and Per Diem, which means Per Day in latin). The idea is very simple, a new painting or artwork to discover and discuss with your peers every day.

Content is currently only fetched from Chicago Art Institute Free API [1] but I'm planning to add more sources in the short future.

It was built with a couple of technologies I wanted to try for some time. Frontend is made with Preact and styled with Tailwindcss. Backend consists of an FastAPI app deployed in a Docker container.
