I thought so too, untill I looked for 1-point Show HN posts with a repo with a long commit history. Some of these are really cool (see my article), but others were not compelling at all, at least to me.

This article is focused on the US, and recommends: - To fix the exporting of plastics to countries that don’t properly process it. - While this hasn’t been fixed, change your personal behavior to not recycle plastics so it goes to a landfill instead. Correct?

If you live elsewhere, you should do this analysis yourself. I live in the UK, which apparently exports plastics to Turkey, Netherlands, and a bunch of other countries. So I guess it’s fine to recycle here?

What do you mean? Normally you should see the price at the start of checkout.

We are improving some stuff though: - Better communication of what's include when you upgrade your project -> DONE - Explain pricing on other pages as well, like home page -> TODO

A little warning that renders can take a long time these days. We've been trying to increase our quota on GCP for GPU instances, but they've refused our requests. We tried contacting the GCP team, but no reply yet.

If you know someone from the GCP team (sales/support), please let us know! We would like to increase our GPU instance quota.

Ok, we will add user+pw. I've done some research in the meantime:

- FB is not that easy, since you can't set the email address as a required field. We use that to send the final render. We could let it be filled in in the app though.

- Twitter will probably be added

- Apple can be investigated

Google being the only login option is getting some criticism. What would you like as authentication options?

- FB - Twitter - Apple - Would email+pw be necessary? I’m maybe biased, I generally prefer using and implementing third party authentication.

Hi, thank you for your feedback!

Google -> fair point, we’ll add some more options

Signing in is needed though. We could maybe find a way without it but it would be a bog hassle. At minimum we would need an email adress for when the render is done.

For now, we have a very basic pricing scheme. We add a subtle watermark to the video. If you pay to remove it, all the renders (also new ones) for that project will be without watermark. For now, we don’t put any limitting, except on audio length and file size. Do you think this is a fair model? Or would something else be better?

Legal -> it’s your video. But we’re not responsible for storage.
