Hi, all!
Just reaching out to see if there are any Kids on Bikes players active in this community! I've been working on a tool to support play groups at my local games shop, and I thought -- why not open it up to more people?
It's 100% free, there are zero features stuck behind a paywall, ads, or other monetization and I intend to keep it that way. Full disclosure: there is a link to donate to the project, but it's out of the way and will never be shoved in anyone's face.
I want to make the tool better for anyone and everyone who uses it, so if it interests you at all please check it out! It's called Handlebar Heroes. Feel free to make suggestions, ask questions, give strongly worded criticisms, whatever you like. I'm here for it all. ๐
Thanks so much for your time! I hope someone gets some use out of it.
Great call out! Thanks a bunch.
EDIT: Just a heads up, since that fiasco in Feb 2024 (where the user got a surprise $104k bill) Netlify has updated to offer a Free Plan in addition to the Starter Plan. The difference being, the Free Site plan shuts off traffic after 100GB, and the Starter Site plan will begin billing at a rate of $55/100gb after the first 100Gb. So the site should be safe from unexpected bills, but could be shut down by a malicious attack...
I hope you're right, I also tried to read the pricing page on netlify carefully about this. The Q&A says the websites will be shut off if the bandwidth limit is reached, but the pricing table still says $55/100 after 100G is reached. Talk about not reassuring. From the look of it, it's probably fine to use the free tier since it technically didn't ask for credit card info and real name to sign up iirc, I don't think they have enough info to send a bill to any users home address, so nothing is stopping from surprise charge free tier user from just not paying the bill at all.
Yeah, it's a little confusing to look at but their pricing page does have "Starter only" next to the $55/100Gb on bandwidth for their "Free & Starter" tier overview.
I see, thanks for the clarification! May we never receive a $100k bill :D
