Hello! I made this site to help me get a project idea and then quickly create it.<p>In the past I worked inefficiently and in secrecy, and I never ended up launching anything. This project is about turning that around.<p>Anyone can post ideas anonymously and vote anonymously. The voting ends in less than a week, and then I have a week to build the most popular project.<p>I&#x27;m super nervous to be sharing this here, thank you for taking the time to check it out!

To author, nice app. You handled few of the edge cases for ideas submission. Kudos.<p>I think you should add email option where a subscriber can get a mail every day about the most upvoted ideas. This way it&#x27;ll be more collaborative. You can open up a discord server where people can discuss all the submitted ideas.<p>Also you need to add spam protection when someone added an idea. I just added an idea with text: &quot;BLA BLA....&quot;. Prevention from spam and Bot protection will helps.

Awesome app! Constraining the time to 1 week makes users more interested. An MVP of anything can be built in ~4 days.<p>captcha is probably enough for spam control.<p>Posting it on &#x2F;r&#x2F;Crowdfunding might get more users.<p>I&#x27;d love to help when you&#x27;re ready to build the first project :)<p>edit: If there aren&#x27;t enough votes after a week, maybe try requiring some number of votes before the project gets built. 500? 10000? Something that will give enough time for the projects to get enough attention.

This should be a platform. The main problem is how to convince users to come and vote on projects. If you figure that out - you&#x27;ll be a millionaire :)<p>One way might be through cryptocurrencies - users crowd-source the idea with money, then one or more developers submit MVP&#x27;s, then users vote on those and the winner gets all the collected money, while users get the product they want. Sort of like improved Kickstarter.
