I build left-wing content creator tools and fan sites. Currently developing the CrankCommunism ecosystem — including this HasanAbi fan site and the upcoming HMTV & LMTV platforms.
Tech stack: Ruby/Rails, TypeScript/React, Inertia.js, Avo, Bullet Train
Background
- Previously built MobileAdScout & VidAdTelligence — profitable B2B SaaS apps for marketers
- Web automation specialist (Playwright, Selenium, Watir)
- Full-stack Rails developer with headless CMS experience (Strapi, Directus, WordPress)
Why Support?
Running these platforms requires ongoing investment in infrastructure and tooling:
- Hosting for AI coding and workflow apps
- Platform access & scraping resources (TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Twitch, Patreon, Social Blade, Twitter, Reddit)
- Premium Rails tools (Avo, Bullet Train)
- Self-hosted Twitter API infrastructure
Current costs: $100-250/month
Projected by 2027: ~$1K/month as platforms scale
