Trying my best 😅

Yeah, and that rope around the neck when you have 2 weeks to implement something before you need to move on...that love/hate relationship is for real haha.

Thx, feels good to know there are other outhere who understand <3

Had to abandon it, and get a full-time job.

Now I'm back (did I not learn lol). AI-assisted coding changed the game, and 1 person can build what would've taken a full team before.

This is m3llo. Open-source Discord alternative. Voice, chat, game streaming. Hosted in Europe, or host it yourself.

4 yrs ago I started building a Discord alternative.
Solo, self-funded and couldn't afford a team.
I couldnt catch up to basic functionality everyone wanted, I pivoted so many times trying to figure it out that i lost direction and I was out of money by end of 2025... [cont]

Pretty happy with this onboarding. Even managed to sneak in a little easter egg ;)

Still some small-ish bugs and glitches, but overall rly happy!

What ya think?

Resource usage when streaming. In debug mode as well.
Not too shabby I guess ;)
#buildinpublic #deathtoelectron #rust #slint #c++ #discordkiller?

UI for selecting streaming source progression...it took a while, but pretty happy with the final result right now :)

hey, i'm building m3llo. voice and game streaming for your crew. open-source, self-hostable, built in rust and c++.
currently alpha and very much a work in progress. building this in public because i think that's the right way to do it.
if any of this sounds interesting, come hang. m3llo.app
