From Networking Disappointment to Meaningful Circles — Building Netuorked in Public
I’m a full-time manufacturing pro, MBA candidate, part-time indie hacker wannabe, and career-long victim of “networking.”
I do think networking is broken, and we've all been exposed to it:
“Let’s connect” = “Let me sell”
Endless doom scrolling and algorithm throwing latest hot news at you, nothing to do with building professional network
Everyone’s shouting, nobody’s listening
The weirdest thing is that I believe we all need and want to talk, but it somehow just doesn't happen. We’re afraid of being rejected — or worse, mistaken for yet another sales pitch.
So I’m building Netuorked — a side project turned mission.
A place for career switchers, underrepresented folks in tech, young professionals to:
Join structured peer circles (no fluff, real outcomes)
Grow with others like them
Actually look forward to "networking"
Tech stack: Replit MVP, EmailJS, Postgres coming
Launch plan: Organic via Twitter, Reddit, and partnerships
Monetization: Low-cost premium tiers, free pilot for communities
I’m chasing 100 real users who actually care.
Follow if you’re into building really small and slow, turning pain into product, making community > content.
