I don't know if vibe coding is the solution to all problems. There's a lot that it can't solve, which means it's up to humans to develop the applications. Maybe you just need to find the right application to create.
It's kind of hard these days, because if you look at the world of software, corporations have enterprise systems that don't really spark any excitement for the people working on them, video games are worse than what they used to be, specifically AAA titles (indie games are cool, but they don't bring me as much excitement as AAA titles), there's like a million Android and iOS apps, most of which just aren't as... amazing as you'd want them to be.
If you really think about it, it just really comes down to the money. See, the United States is $38 trillion in debt, and as a result, I think a lot of people are struggling. If the U.S. wasn't $38 trillion in debt, I think a lot of people would have a lot more fun with software, in a way that... there would be something to create.
So, what I'm saying is, if there's a way to create software that revives society, and eases the struggle with money, that would be the thing to create.
Geo fenced Wikipedia exists already, as a number of apps are available which offer regional maps with localized Wikipedia additions, see for example https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OsmAnd
Twitter started as an internal service for existing Odeo employees, so an unfair comparison if you're talking about cold, starting a social network. Twitter didn't start cold.
That seems a little excessive for an app like this. The only way I know of that users can fake their location is with a rooted device. I check for rooted devices in the app though so locations can't be spoofed.
Device doesn't have to be rooted to spoof the location.
Also, I hope you're not using Play Integrity (lol), because that means all the old phones you allow can be rooted, hide it from you and/or spoof positive chdck result........ because they're insecure like sieves..... Whilst you'd be banning modern and unrooted phones.
I thought this comment thread was about location spoofing, but if we're talking about abuse on the platform, I do have a "report" button for each chat message. After 2 - 3 reports, the message gets deleted.
It started with an idea to allow users to connect within polygon geofences anywhere on earth. Getting this system to work on Android with all the backend code takes a lot of time. The system itself loads polygon geofences 180° E and W longitude and 90° N and S latitude. And it uses perimeter-based loading system that crosses the antimeridian, equator and north and south poles.
I also built the entire user-based infrastructure from ground up in Java. That includes account settings, sign up, forgot and reset password, and verification codes with multiple settings.
But the framework itself is still more complex, allowing for very stable long-term Android applications. It includes dynamic configurations parsed from the database on the backend and then used on the backend and Android app via the commons library. Dynamic user messages. A full commons REST framework with REST processing that's in the commons library.
Overall it's a large system. And in fact, I'm getting close to publishing it so that users can build their own 100% Java full-stack Android applications: enterpriseandroidfoundation.com
