SelfLink Community is the public problem-solving hub of SelfLink.
It is the place where:
- Real problems are posted.
- People gather around them.
- Collaboration happens in the open.
Think of it as “open-source GitHub Issues + discussion + contribution tracking + rewards”, but designed for humans, not just developers.
Anyone can browse. You do not need an account to look around. You can see:
- Problems
- Descriptions
- Discussions
- Artifacts (links, write-ups, proofs of work)
- How many people are working on each problem
Each problem is a real task or challenge. Not vague ideas — things that can be worked on.
Examples:
- “Improve onboarding UX for SelfLink mobile app”
- “Design contributor reward transparency page”
- “Optimize backend cost for 100k users”
You do not get “assigned” like Jira. You mark “I am working on this”. Others immediately see that you are involved. Collaboration forms naturally.
Comments are tied to problems. Artifacts are tied to problems. Nothing floats around disconnected.
An artifact can be:
- A GitHub PR
- A design mockup
- A doc
- A demo link
This is how work becomes visible and measurable.
Before someone participates (likes, works, comments, submits artifacts), they accept a simple MIT-style agreement. This prevents future disputes:
- Who owns what
- How contributions are reused
- How rewards are distributed
The dashboard shows:
- Total income flowing into SelfLink
- How much is reserved for contributors
- How many contributors are involved
This is not a forum. It is an economic collaboration layer.
- Not a social network feed
- Not a chat app
- Not a closed company backlog
- Not “just comments”
It is not about posting thoughts. It is about doing work together in public.
SelfLink Community exists because:
- Open source loses contributors’ work in the noise
- Traditional issue trackers do not reward people
- Discords lose history
- Companies extract value without transparency
This fixes that by making:
- Contribution visible
- Participation explicit
- Ownership clear
- Rewards traceable
