Show HN: I built sinkedin – a LinkedIn but for flauting failures and screwups

https://www.sinkedin.app/
32•preetsojitra•7mo ago
Hi HN,

I saw joke online about wanting a version of Linkedin for failures. I thought it was a great idea, so I decided to build a simple version of it.

Sinkedin is a place to post (anonymously) stories about job rejections, interview screw-ups and other carrer failures.

Website: https://www.sinkedin.app/ Github: https://github.com/Preet-Sojitra/sinkedin

I am not a designer, so the UI is very minimalistic. If it triggers your OCD, PRs are very welcome.

The entire stack is running on free tiers, so please expect some latency if it gets any traffic. I wanted to ship it fast and see if the idea has legs before spending money.

Happy to answer any questions.

Think this is funny. How did you make the website? Asking out of of curiosity, it looks like one I made with Windsurf a while back
preetsojitra•7mo ago
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
McDyver•7mo ago
Is this "the future"?

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

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?

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.

felix089•7mo ago
fun concept, but why require sign up at all? anon posting seems central to the idea and spam could be managed through creative system design, at least in the early stages
hypercube33•7mo ago
Actually before even visiting - I'd sign up. I make plenty of mistakes in my personal career learning but how you learn from screwing up is what I'd want to learn about from others so I'd be. inclined to post about my own. To err is to human and all that
preetsojitra•7mo ago
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.
karmakaze•7mo ago
The site doesn't seem to understand what anonymously means: "Continue with Google"?

What's the point of having a barrier of creating a throwaway email to post a story?

preetsojitra•7mo ago
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.

karmakaze•7mo ago
Thanks. I wondered if that might be the reason, but then thought if anyone has loads of ready-to-go-throwaway-emails it would be the spammers. Maybe using AI to fight spammy posts can work for a while if it needs automation.

I was excited to try “Explore the Chaos” and wanted to share something — just a quick, anonymous post — but I saw I had to log in.

It felt like a bit of a barrier.

Would love an option to leave a one-time message without signing in, almost like dipping a toe into the chaos before diving in fully.

preetsojitra•7mo ago
Hi thanks for the feedback. I am planning to make login fully optional. Will be implemented in next update.
