anxiostial

and this is why I became a web developer.

well avoid startups to begin with.

did you want to share more details?, like sales numbers, time it took to build, why you decided to return to a normal job, etc.

what a pointless post, you didn't really make any real arguments here, you just complained that we already have stuff but didn't explain why you think it is redundant, because there are actually differences between all of these (Qt vs Electron vs Flutter vs etc) and then complained a bit about google, like why even?

You are making a lot of statements here without anything to really back it up, why is it the holy grail of software development? measuring output and actually improving developer performance are not even remotely the same thing, would it not make more sense to spend time on anything related to the actual development, like training developers for example?

It is pretty ironic how much time is wasted on trying measure developer productivity.

cool, and yea I am not sure if people would want something like this at all, it just seemed like a fun idea to me.

it was within the first hour

no but probably will be, mostly not making it public right now because it isn't a pretty project to look at atm.

Yea I would like to and maybe I will revisit the idea, but the inappropriate content issue has me concerned, so until I have some kind of solution for that I think its more responsible to disable it.

oh wow thank you, you created an awesome library, I feel kind of bad only giving you praise in a comment on my show hn post, but keep up the great work!

It would have certainly been a lot of work to do that custom, but I would have used webrtc for that as well. I certainly would not have implemented a torrent client myself, which is something that is nice to have as a library, because adding support for creating a room with a magnet uri instead of a local file would be trivial now.

no but maybe I will add a way to subscribe to a mailing list of some sort, might be a good idea, did not really expect this much reception haha.

I believe it is largely time related, I did not want a broken UI and prefer adaptive UIs, I will look into adding mobile support at some point.

[copied from another answer]

yea so I should have clarified, when a room creator closes the tab, the room is basically dead, anyone who enters will never connect or see anything. This basically makes public rooms completely useless so I may remove them for now (possibly forever).
