Show HN: TikTrotter – TikTok but for obscure travel trivia to beat doomscrolling
I'm trying to stop doomscrolling social media, so I made a website to help me.
I'm a huge traveler so I made a website that shows infinitely-scrolling obscure locations with interesting trivia in a TikTok-like manner.
I've been discovering a lot of cool places in the world and dropped my social media time a lot. The website is 100% free, no ads and no sign-up. Check it out if interested, I would appreciate some feedback.
Next step is to create a multiplayer trivia game where you can challenge your friends and see who knows more about the world.

- gostak 1y agoHey thanks! The image issue is something i'm struggling with, I source them from Wikitravel and they are often not high-resolution. Scraping from google images search introduces two (potential) issues: 1. Getting the correct location, (there is for example a Barcelona in Venezuela) but searching that will always just return the one in Spain, the feed should show obscure locations so this is a problem 2. There seems to be some more legal implications from scraping/using images from Google Image search I'll work on the text feeling like AI-slop, I welcome all the feedback!
