recently launched on HN. We've had a great experience with it so far.
As a parent ( and I think on this note I can speak for all of them ) the #1 concern with an idea like this is SAFETY.
What can you ensure to us all that this won't be the #1 platform for pedophiles?
Also I noticed the limited library of kids books. It says i can find more online via NYLibrary.. but when i went there it was UX hell. i simply want you to seed the library and allow me to filter them by tags and show which ones i've already read.
thanks!
True, the NYPL UX is pretty terrible now that I think about it. That will especially be a problem for seniors who aren't confident with tech. I will add a bunch more stories ASAP and introduce a filter, thanks for your thoughts! LMK if there's anything else you think.
I think that's a good point –– figuring out safety and screening in a manageable way is our main focus right now. We're solving it by having screening calls with the seniors, or accepting via referral. In addition, we're working on a reporting system which should further help with removing bad actors. Thanks for your feedback!
