I think you have autism.

Check out subreddits about it.

tmsteph

I'm very interested in this thank you!

tmsteph

Brave Browser is nice.

tmsteph

Let's get together! I believe open-source is the way.

tmsteph

Use it and learn how to code/get involved.

Talk to Chat-GPT or me if you have questions!

tmsteph

Make your own web-apps!

Make your own notes app, your own blog, maybe a chat app for you and your friends.

Anything you do on your computer, try to make your own version of it.

I've had the same thought about a programming language with less special characters.

Honestly, I like the idea overall!

I say go for it, see how far inspiration takes you!

I'd love to link up on github.

https://GitHub.com/tmsteph

tmsteph

Check out https://portal.3dvr.tech

I'm just starting it, but we are trying to make a kind of club where people can make software together.

Message me if you are interested!

Don't let others dissuade you.

I code from my phone often!

Generally I just edit in browser via GitHub.com or use termux.

I do use a Samsung Fold, so that makes things easier.

There is a project called "code from phone" that is being developed by Mark Nadal.

Check him out on twitter and give him a message!

tmsteph

I've been working on https://portal.3dvr.tech to work collaboratively on open-source projects.

We have a small team that communicates over Whatsapp if you are interested!

tmsteph

First you have to understand the frameworks and technologies that a project is using.

For example, the Linux kernel is written mainly in C.

Many gui applications are written using gtk or QT plus C or Python

Postgress or sqlite is common as the database.

JavaScript is common for web-apps.

After that, it's good to get a grasp of the high-level directories, and entry-points of the app.

We need to start a club!

Project name: 3dvr.tech

Repository link: https://github.com/tmsteph/3dvr-portal

What it does: We aim to be a fully-featured open-source tech company to rival apple, microsoft, tesla, ect.

Tech stack: Web Technologies, Balthazar.space, Debian, Vercel, Gun.js

Help Needed: We need to get off the ground.

Additional Information: We have a marketing page and simple productivity web-app mvp/poc. We are looking to take on customers/investors at $0, $5, and $20 subscriptions.

Our goal is to train anyone in the world in software design and help them make money using Open-Source Technologies.

tmsteph

My real plan is to create an open-source company that provides tech for and by Digital Nomads.

Eventually I want to create hardware and software, even continuing into e-bikes, tents, backpacks, cars and more, all modular and open-source!

Starting with websites, moving into apps, then into laptops based on balthazar.space running debian.

I want 3dvr.tech to be a place where people can learn software development, become employed, invest, as well as enjoy our community and products.

I'm not stuck on the name or brand. It's a leftover from the pandemic when I became unemployed as a live audio engineer and was rediscovering my passion in computers through VR and saw a future for the open metaverse.

I've been studying software ever since and feel ready to get the project off the ground!

I want anyone anywhere in the world to have the tools to learn software development and get paid for it.

tmsteph

Not sure where you found the link, but I assume you found my marketing site!

Potential customers for websites and apps don't generally understand what open-source is, so I don't think I mention it specifically there.

This is the link to our internal web-app we are working on.

https://github.com/tmsteph/3dvr-portal

The idea is to create a system that is fork-able so anyone can create their own software company or community easily!

Everything we have done so far, including our marketing site is available on github.

Thanks for your response!

tmsteph

Why can't we start our own open-source company?

tmsteph

I'm trying to do a tech startup 3dvr.tecb

I'd love to talk more!

tmsteph

I'd love to start a company doing things like that!

tmsteph

Generally, with most models, you can literally ask it to research and follow best practices.

tmsteph

Thanks for reminding me about freenet!

I need to look more into it.

tmsteph

I wish flutterflow would let us edit from phones.

tmsteph

I'm a stagehand and member of iatse, I can help you organize and brainstorm!
