I have been building a social network for Twitch, called Chattr. It is very Twitch specific as you log in with Twitch and it will automatically post when you go live. When your stream ends, it will automatically post the VOD to your followers feed. Also, if anyone who follows you on Twitch joins Chattr, then they will automatically follow you on the site too. This makes it much easier to move your community over.

You can also tip and receive tips for your posts, which can then trigger a stream alert.

You can use your own custom emotes in posts and your Twitch subscribers can also use them.

I'm really excited to be building this and we have 135 users signed up.

A dev friend made this, and it's been really fun to play. I think HN would appreciate this one

My brother was told his heart was healthy after having serious chest pains. The next day, he passed away from a heart attack due to heart disease. This was four years ago, when they were busy dealing with covid patients and in the UK.

Why? Things like this happen all the time and make it to the front page of HN. I've seen people's Google accounts get locked out because of stupid reasons. The IG account has no connection to my Facebook account, and I can't understand how it has affected my Facebook account.

I barely use Facebook to be honest, but it still had all my memories and connections. I've had this account for a very long time.

I've heard you can sue them in small claims court to get your account back.

Apparently it's the only thing that works.

Because, you know, dystopia.

Use this opportunity to remind your friends to download a backup of all of their facebook data.

I'm not addicted, but I've had that account since I was a teen, and it carries many memories and connections. I shared it here, hoping someone had a similar experience and could maybe share if they fixed it.

It's nothing like that at all.

Oh ok, still a bit strange to post here but in that case don’t take it too hard. Getting banned from a big platform for no reason or a silly reason is like a right of passage nowadays :)

Thank you, and I only use it to keep updated with friends and family. Maybe this is more of a blessing in disguise

And you have a perfect excuse. If anyone asks why you don’t use Facebook you can just tell the truth.

Haha thanks for the humor and bringing a smile to my face despite Meta's stupidity :D

I'd become a vocalist for a death metal band
