Show HN: We were tired of bureaucracy, so we build a repo for the best guides

by rbatista19 on 6/21/24, 12:23 PM with 4 comments

Today we are launching Tramitit, a shared database on getting all those poor-UX local procedures done in a much simpler way!

- How it works: The community provides detailed walkthroughs on every possible bureaucratic process you might go through.

- For the community by the community: The content on this website is curated, verified, and rated by the community.

- Welcoming providers that can help our users: Although our guides are as simple as possible, users may still prefer to delegate tasks to a curated provider.

Looking forward to your feedback!

    I was really happy about this project at first.

    When I browsed for a couple of minutes, however, I found many of the guides to be just unhelpful LLM slop [1] with no connection to the target bureaucracy whatsoever. (Blatant example: [2])

    This makes me not only feel cheated, but also sows doubt on the quality of the site as a whole. I hope quality is going to improve, I wish you folks the best.

    When you say you are tired of bureaucracy, what you are saying is that you are sick of listening to the voices of your fellow citizens. I would change the language so as to not slander the bureaucracy or the people who work there, who are usually just good citizens trying their best.

    It's a good idea though, overall I think. Eventually you could do more than the public sector, the private sector has some terrible processes to navigate as well.
