T
t4t
A year ago I surveyed the internet and noticed there was only one popular space for trans and gender-non-conforming people to meet; Lex.
Lex is not well liked by its users. Its software feels heavy and it is full of cash grabs and anti-patterns. It was recently acquired and is sure to only become more hostile to its users as it turns towards profit generation.
With this in mind I built t4t, an alternative specially designed for not only queer people, but specifically trans people.
It is an extremely lightweight service. I built it with my most ideal stack: Flutter, Svelte, Supabase, Posthog.
It has grown in the last year to about 4,000 monthly active users. I think it could grow way beyond that this year.
