reminds me of the path Minecraft could have taken - they also had a massive amount of community developers building servers, but instead of encouraging monetization and taking a cut, they banned it and cracked down aggressively
Of course, unlike Roblox, Minecraft was profitable

This is talked about a lot in Einstein's Walter Isaacson biography, so people have been observing this trend for a long time (e.g the Germans accusing Einstein of doing self promotion, the US having celebrity culture in contrast), maybe it's cyclical

So, I've created a tool (originally for myself) that scans specific RSS feeds (for instance, HN has an RSS feed at https://hnrss.org/newest), compares articles to a natural language filter (e.g. "New Social Network Release") and sends me an email alert whenever a matching article is published to the feed. I've decided it's possible other people would have use for this, since Google Alerts is used and this is strictly better (Google Alerts has a ton of false positives). I want to check if there's interest before I bother creating a front end since I hate coding front ends, so behold a Google Form. It's free!

Any feedback is welcome. I'll clean it up soon, but I decided to just publish it for now and see the response. Tomorrow there should be more than one giant Python file, and the ability to use files other than .txt.

It's decent, but GPT-4 recommendations are better, I had to go multiple iterations of books before it recommended one I didn't read and love already
And it was more fun to run the server than play the game
