Ask HN: Does anyone want to take ownership of roundtable.audio?

28 points by sethkim ↗ HN
In 2020, I built https://roundtable.audio/, and later an extension for Hacker News (https://hackernews.roundtable.audio/) which turns HN posts into audio chat rooms. I've since moved on to other projects, and am looking to see if anyone wants to take over the project, or remix it into something entirely new.

The code is open-source and can be found here: https://github.com/sethkimmel3/roundtable.audio/. I'm planning to shut down the current deployment at the end of the year if no one wants it.

If you're interested, feel free to reach out! I'd be happy to spend some time intro'ing you to the codebase and can give you some technical and commercial ideas for how to extend it.

i'd like something like this, but for slack

Doesn't Slack have huddles?

i mean, rather than pop up slack notification messages, just talk to me when alerts come in. visual notifications are annoying to me.

This sounds interesting! I'd want to do this but I'm busy till September :(

anyway to privately communicate with you as you don't have your email on your profile?

You can feel free to reach out on one one of the email addresses listed on the website.

What would running it entail? How many users need to be supported?

You could assume zero, and start from there! People may be using it; I'm not sure. I'll occasionally check out the site and there are roundtables that have been started.
