I created Weavus [1] as a way to take my events away from facebook. It's a social app (mobile only for now) where events are the main element and the home screen shows your upcoming events.
The philosophy is no feed, no ads, no addiction, just your real social life. It would have been easier to have users sign up with facebook, but I decided the best thing to do was to be entirely Meta-independent. They will undermine anything that threatens The Feed.
The idea is also to merge in a single app many needs of events, like group chats, photo albums, expenses splitting, and I'm planning to add more. I realized groups have similar needs to events, so I added them as well. They're not designed for massive communities though, more like small groups of friends.
All of this is stil very early in development and it definitely needs some more work before a Show HN, but we've found it very useful for weekends and holidays already.
Consider it an open beta, so feel free to give it a try and give me your honest feedback :)
Could you elaborate? I'm not a web dev and it's just a landing page in raw HTML/CSS (developed mostly on firefox btw). I intend to improve it but some pointers would be great.
