Hey PH 👋🏼, I'm @ybouane and today I'm launching StartupRoasters.com a community of people that give *Brutally Honest Feedback* to anything from a business idea, a Youtube video, a website... In today's internet, I feel like getting feedback to one's projects is tough because most online communities slaughter anyone who posts their own work stating that it's self-promotion and spam. That's why I built StartupRoasters.com where anyone can post their work and get feedback. You can even add a survey to your post so that people answer specific questions and make votes. The obvious issue is that everyone is just going to post their work and not care about the others. The solution I found was to implement a points system. You need 100 points to create a new post about your project and to get points, you need to review projects from others, get upvotes, comment... Thereby, everyone needs to contribute to get feedback on their own work. I hope this community will grow and be helpful to people in improving their work. Cheers, Yassine (@ybouane)

@shivam_tiwari24 You sound eerily like ChatGPT. Especially with hashtags, emojis and you kept your message under quotes 🤔...

I love that idea, Yassine. The founders community doesn't only need feedback, they also tend to being responsive. Establishing a place to support each other is really great. Good luck with your launch!

@esus Don't forget to roast other first, because that's how you can accumulate points to post your own startup.

A “Best of” list would be cool to see. For the most liked/upvoted startups. 🏆

@derkolstad I'll definitely add that to the roadmap. For now the community is just starting so I'm waiting for more posts and reviews before I can add some leaderboards.

@ybouane sounds good 😊
Probably something everyone needs!

@maxwellcdavis Refining ideas is a must. How many times I built a product to find out that people aren't interested in the first place. With a community like StartupRoasters, you get feedback from the start. You can also see how people rate other ideas and better understand what common issues startups have and why people think they will fail.

The idea with the attached survey is really good. I'll try to post my own project there with a survey once it's ready ... and if I manage to collect enough points.

@markus_kramer When you first create your account you already start with 50 points so you just need to review five posts to be able to post your own.
