Hey Bluelighters. A few years ago, when I was dealing with major mental health issues (probably) resulting in part from the extensive drug use of the time, I got an idea. I felt like it could’ve helped me at the time but had no means to create it.
In very basic detail, it?s a site where you can share drug experiences, categorized by drug(s) involved. You can view all of the stories including a drug, which by default is sorted by the highest amount of upvotes. It also provides basic harm reduction information for each drug, which can be submitted by users that have accrued enough points, and eventually approved by those with even more.
There?s a full discussion area on each story as well, though it should be noted that it is not a forum. It?s a 100% from-scratch web app that is intuitive and not generic.
Well fast forward a few years, I?ve finally finished the site. It?s working with a tiny community, but as a proof of concept, it?s worked perfectly. I?m not here to promote it, but to seek input from one of my favorite drug communities - does this sound like something you would want to use? After all of the effort I just want to know if it?s worth following though and trying to share it.
if anybody wants to see for themselves, I?d be happy to send it to them as it?s hard to describe quite all of the detail behind its design.
thank you for your input!
