Working on GameBeacon, a different take on LFG(looking for gamers) app/website where gamers can sign up, light a beacon and invite friends to a game session. You can also add your games to build a game collection, including a neat way to scan photos of your physical games using AI. https://www.gamerbeacon.com/ and download the app in the app stores. Been a blast using it with my buddies on VR games weekly.

I built a Raspberry Pi handheld, just a little different type of handheld: https://www.simplecove.com/597/wooden-handheld-game-console/

Not as interesting as the OP though.

I've got a smaller account(33k) and have noticed similar issues lately. It makes no sense as to why visibility fluctuates when my behavior hasn't changed. I have a feeling it's Instagram trying to push us to use their ad system.

I've got buddies on Instagram that watermark their work and when it gets stolen do you think people are going to look at the watermark and go follow them? It doesn't do anything for the original creator on Instagram.

Although that was initially my feelings (when an account steals my content, I would view their account size and get pissed when they had more followers than me) but now I feel equally pissed at every account that steals my content. If it's a legitimate account that's sharing it i'm fine, but if it's an account that only shares other peoples posts, I report and block them. They shouldn't be able to make money from other peoples posts.

Instagram should at least attempt to do something about this issue other than relying on users to report them. All of these accounts have similar patterns on how they operate. They shouldn't be too difficult to find.

As a user with a decent amount of followers(almost 28k), all of these accounts make me angry. I spend so much time filming and editing posts only for some T-shirt woodworking account to steal it and gain more followers than me. I don't care what size the account is that is sharing it. I report them and block them. These accounts are stealing content and making money from stolen content. It makes me sick seeing these accounts have #ad in posts because I know they didn't work hard to get where they are.

Being a woodworker(http://www.simplecove.com/sean) that was learning django/python, I wanted to build a site that let me tell the story of my projects. Check it out and let me know what you think. Thanks

It's getting as bad as the old digg clones.

Fiverr is the harbor freight of online marketplaces. You can find gems, but its hit and miss.

He said "over the year" so its $5/day X 30 X 12 I believe. I could be wrong though.

I am working on a user submitted solution to html5 apps now and had a question for you. Is your idea to host the apps instead of just linking to them like a typical user submitted site does? If you wanted to chat a little about it, my contact info is in my profile here.
