Show HN: Building a project based on universal income concept

To play the intrigue angle, you should be very concise with the text. Three or four bullet points, a relase date, and a mailing list form. Nothing more.
Your site has quite a lot of text, but all of it dances around the core point without directly addressing it. If anything it made me slightly angry. I invested time reading all of your site, and really I had nothing to show at the end of it.
I haven't yet reached the technical level to be able to offer something concrete and complete.
Today, the idea was more to do a test post on HN (which is good since I learned that the pages to collect emails are forbidden) and to receive feedback on the technical part.
I'm sorry for wasting your time and I thank you for wasting more time to tell me that you waste time in an "inception" comment spiral of time wasted.
I take all your advices if one day I want to build hype and mystery around something, thank you a lot !
No, please, don't leave that aside :) The French version is really convincing from my opinion and 5 external opinions. It's a translation problem.
"it's not clear what the thing is here"
As i mention in an another comment, as long as I haven't managed to reach the technical level I want to reach, it's difficult to say more without being incomprehensible.
... But, apparently, it won't be worse than now :D
See this share as a way to warm-up the thing : I will be better next time !

There is no easy way to contact you: twitter does not allow direct messages.

then also write in developer console: > window._form_serialize = serialize
I will investigate that point and my form that seems not to work properly.
Thanks, most helpful answer until now !
- 01.10.2020 (today): publication of the ROI project’s landing page. It's the first time I publish something online I coded from scratch - I profoundly love this feeling : this is so satisfying !
- I started coding on July 2020 and this landing page is made only in vanilla JS, CSS and HTML boosted with Gulp sauces : result of my summer self-taught frameworkless learning.
- ROI is my 6th project and will mix all my experiences from the last twelve years. All of them were launched under the "early-shipping" rules.
- This time, I aim to become the CTO for learning purpose.
- I will keep my idea under "not clearly stated" status until its released : even if it goes against the dynamics of indies, MVP, lean-startup… I have specific reasons which I explain here : https://community.indiestack.co/t/root-rise-of-indies-versio...
Nothing new will be launch beyond this Landing Page until β-version, around March 2021.
I am looking forward to read your feed-back - be rough, I haven't had any "dev-hazing" yet - about :
UX/UI Copywrite (English is not my mother tongue). Responsive General appearance
Thanks !
I would have liked to show more, but I'm absolutely not "technically" ready.
By posting ROI, I wanted to get some criticism about the technical and aesthetics side first since it's my "hello world". I am not really looking for subscribers (otherwise I have to upgrade my account).
That was more just to see if everything goes fine with a bit more traffic than me refreshing the page :D
This link just takes me to a login form. Not sure if that’s intended/expected.
I'm part of this super active Indie hacker community since august and I am totally convincing by how its run.
However, you have to sign-up and pays a small contribution to discuss with us. It's worth it only if you are an indie hacker/side-project builder/... I guess.
And behind the paywall, you will find the complete explaination of the project Rise-of-Indies.
(As it's more "intimate" and that I don't want to expose every details of my thought on HN, It's a great choice)
Well, do you or do you not want to engage with the HN community? Paywalls and signup pages are not allowed as Show HN’s.
If you want to know more about it, there is a place for that which is the link I shared. It's an add-on, not a trick.
What I was asking to the HN community is more the technical side of my page. I know there are lot of dev here and that could be a great way to improve my skills.
Good luck!
"It's the first time I publish something online I coded from scratch"
How does this add up? You have been building online businesses for 12 years without coding and publishing anything online?
I've been working digitally for 12 years (creating project with no-code tools or people with dev skills), and I've never written a line of code. So this is the first time I write code and then publish it.
Is there a better way to say it?
If you have any other great alternativ, I would be happy to read it
