New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: I built an active community of trans people online

Show HN: I built an active community of trans people online
44 by t4t | 15 comments on Hacker News.
A year ago I surveyed the internet and noticed there was only one popular space for trans and gender-non-conforming people to meet; Lex. Lex is not well liked by its users. Its software feels heavy and it is full of cash grabs and anti-patterns. It was recently acquired and is sure to only become more hostile to its users as it turns towards profit generation. With this in mind I built t4t, an alternative specially designed for not only queer people, but specifically trans people. It is an extremely lightweight service. I built it with my most ideal stack: Flutter, Svelte, Supabase, Posthog. It has grown in the last year to about 4,000 monthly active users. I think it could grow way beyond that this year.
