I think, Assembly.com [1] could be characterized as "Github for Startups": different people were collaborating on projects and getting part of projects' ownership as compensation.<p>In my opinion, the concept was quite interesting. And thus I'd like to ask you. Have you ever used Assembly.com? If not, why? What exactly didn't you like about it (was it the idea or implementation details)?<p>Complaints I've extracted from other discussions on HN and Reddit so far:
1. 10% commission
2. Projects are available for authorized users only
3. The way "shares" are divided.<p>[1]: https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/assembly
I really liked the idea of Assembly, and was so eager to work on something on it, but whenever i tried looking for something , it just didn't feel right, the UX was horrible, the way I could contribute to a project was not clear at all, you find something like a wall, where everyone says he will do something or take a step for something , and i could not get started doing that thing and any thing else would be dependent on it, i prefer clicking a Github explore and work on a random project that i like than struggling to just choose what to do, everytime i tried i ended up wasting more than 30 minutes on the website, i would never work on something like that.
