    If I write a app specifically geared towards firearm owners and conservatives, how many of you would consider using it? I'm trying to get a baseline number to see if there would be enough interest in it.

    I would personally love an INGO like app. I know there's the tapatalkamajig, but it doesn't do much for me. I definitely miss when gunbroker was an app...

    Will it locate reasonably priced ammo in stock at least 30 minutes before the rest of the world discovers the location? You could get a bunch of users for that app, I’d bet!

    Those are all questions that need fielded.. what features would folks like and not like.. personally in my head I was thinking more along the lines of just a big middle finger to Facebook and some other anti 1st, 2nd amendment socialist media apps

    It would be a growing work.. inwould have to start basic and add features as they are requested just due to time constraints

    what is the app concerning? Forum, Classifieds, general gun knowledge? I'm not really sure what is being advertised.
    It's still in the planning phase.. im envisioning a middle finger to Facebook, a classifieds section for buyers and sellers and possibly a search engine similar to ammoseek.. maybe options for groups to be formed by state.. I have a lot of thoughts on this and limited time and resources.. I would want to make it a free app with no ads where users could go into settings and donate IF and only IF they wanted

    You have a plan to pay for the cloud hosting and backend storage, etc? What's the differentiator that will draw people to you compared to others?

    Yes, I will do all the hosting and storage in my home.. I have a pretty advanced home network. I would not have to worry about having domain registration.. I have static IPs already and those would just need coded into the app to connect. As far as storage goes , hard drives are so inexpensive these days

    It sounds like a huge project, not meaning to sound pessimistic. If there's a way to do this, I would be impressed and would give it a shot.

    In that case, I wouldn't be interested.

    There is definitely a way to do it. I hosted icecast on my Linux server to see how much traffic it could handle before listeners started getting buffering and lag. Pushing the mp3s at 320kbps I had a peak of 150K+ listeners without any buffering(I have asymetric 1Gb fiber here) . For the guy that said he wouldn't be interested, if it's because you think I may collect personal data, my plan was to allow usage without personalized accounts.. in other words, it wouldn't even have to be a real email address to register, usernames could be whatever people wanted (subject to availability) my intent is to give conservatives a completely anonymous platform to voice their ideas and concerns.. the incitement of violence wouldn't be condoned but I want to create a truly free speech platform.
