Hi thanks for the feedback. I am planning to make login fully optional. Will be implemented in next update.

> Someone whips up and deploys something with an LLM, but is unable to change a colour scheme because "computer says no".

I meant to say that, I do not have great design sense and I tried different color schemes suggested by LLMs but all were very weird or mid.

> At the same time you need to register and provide an email. How confident are you about what to do when there's a leak?

Based on all the comments and feedback, I have decided to make signup optional. If I don't have data, I can't lose it.

Hi thanks for the feedback. I will make signup optional and will figure out way to handle spam. It would be great if you can throw some ideas of handling spam by creative system design. I am not experienced developer and trying to learn as much as I can.

You are right. I apologize for the confusing experience. My only reason to sign-up was to prevent spam. Based on this feedback, I will make it optional.

Thank you for the feedback.

haha, it will look similar because I coded it with claude and gemini 2.5 pro. During brainstorming I just asked claude to make static html mocks and this is the best version that I was able to achieve. I feel like improving color scheme but AI peaked at this color theme as is unable to give better results

You're misinterpreting the analogy.

- Drawing a mustache on the art = Vandalizing the original data (not what's happening).

- Taking the art home = Deleting the original data (also not what's happening).

- Scraping faces for an AI = Following visitors around the gallery, taking secret photos of them, and publishing a book that rates them by attractiveness.

The fact that the gallery is "public" does not make that behavior acceptable. The same is true here. "Publicly viewable" does not mean "publicly available for any use."

What about the ethical concerns? Scrapping faces of people and feeding them into AI model without their permission.

Maybe. Actually I was not aware of this site when I started working on this. I am thinking to give pure anti-linkedin vibes to sinkedin. I still don’t really have a proper vision of which direction to take this in.

Working on a silly side project called SinkedIn — a parody of LinkedIn but just for posting failures, screwups, and embarrassing moments. Staging is live here: https://sinkedin-staging.vercel.app/ and GitHub repo is: https://github.com/Preet-Sojitra/sinkedin. Pushing to production soon. UI is rough, I’m not a frontend person — bear with me! All sorts of contributions are welcome.

It would be great to make one for all the innovations and discoveries be its technical, mathematical, etc etc. Also maybe creating some linkage or graph sort of thing for showing the discovery or invention which led or built foundation for another discovery in later years (umm not sure, might be too complex... just an idea)
