A free and self hostable alternative to ngl.link, with no paid subscription, just a simple app that you and your friends can share to manage their QAs (also team support is coming soon!).
The prod service is hosted on Vercel and Convex's Public Cloud infra. https://anonqa.pleaseuse.me
For exploits on the platform, please DO NOT USE ISSUES EVEN FOR EXISTING ISSUES, JUST DO NOT USE THEM, please contact: [email protected] with the starting title of [EXPLOIT], so I can make them easier to publish in a report.
Other than the email, you can also contact me on discord hwtw (you can maybe dm me?). If you are in the HC slack, please contact me there instead. All lines will be faster then contacting via emails (as I will get a jumpscare when I get messages from one of these platforms).
Most of the code is writen by myself. However, I sometimes do ask an AI (Claude Sonnet 3.5 or Grok Code Fast 1) or enable to AI auto compelete functions from Zed.
The code fully writien by AI is the ~/web/manage/[team]/answer/[slug]/canvasText.tsx, canvasText component, as I'm incaptiable working with canvases.
The login/registering pages's base is writen by an AI, and changed by me (some styles and fonts) and the main function as well.
And some convex functions are assisted by the AI on convex's docs website! https://docs.convex.dev

Where I live Taiwan, a lot of ppl use sites like ngl.link or marshmellow for their anon qa stuff, 2 years ago I tried doing this in linktree (for myself), but failed bacause of it's limited functionalty. Now I have learned some stacks, (the NTP stack (Nuxt, Tailwind, Postgres)), I will try to redo my attempts at doing so, with self hostable services (or something you can host it yourself on vercel or cloudflare).
- AI Message flagging
- Team Management.
Customizable random messages (TBD)- Customizable Placeholders
- LIVE updates (from the dashboard)
- LIVE updates to the Teams page.
When Cloudflare Turnstil is on, the cloudflare turnstile function take a few seconds to verify the function, which is not ideal, so if you don't care about captchas, you can disable it. This will have two upsides.
- A better UI experence to the user
- The user submition is faster to submit.
This is only a UI issue. It does not affect the use of the dashboard. (yes im writing this like pretty late sooo i have no time to polish :\
This app is not really designed for mobile users (but mobile devices are what most ppl will use to access the app)
THis app's code does checks on the api while using await, so if the db is slow your query to db is also slow too! This is made so that if ever the DB hit an error it can return back to the user.
DO NOT USE THE NATIVE <Link> component, this componenet will PRELOAD the page (which if its a FUCKING LOGOUT ROUTE) it will break, (i spent too much time debugging this garbage)
Thanks to lucide for all of the SVGs and Icons used for this project!
