We are a passionate 15 person startup operating out of a shared workspace in San Francisco, California.
We know from personal experience just how painful it can be to rent an apartment, and we think it should be faster, easier, and more transparent. So we created Lovely, a real rental marketplace that helps renters find the homes they want and helps property owners and managers find the renters they want.
WE ARE HIRING
We are seeking smart and dedicated people to help us seize the enormous rental market opportunity and redefine the level of ease and transparency that renters and property owners can expect on both sides on the marketplace. Bring your passion for problem solving and leave your mark on an industry that impacts 95% of all US residents

I grew up in the suburbs of Milwaukee and diversity just isn't a thing here. As a white dude there are just some areas you are not allowed to go in the city.
Hell there was a race riot after the state fair last year. This segregation definitely contributes to negative stereotypes on all sides.
Now that I live in SF I understand what diversity really means. Poop everywhere...

The public urination/defecation problem SF has is connected to its large homeless population, many of whom are mentally disabled. The reason for SF's large homeless population is not only because of its liberal views, but also because of its year-round mild weather. If it were burning hot in the summer and freezing cold in the winter (as it is in many parts of the Midwest), living on the streets simply would not be physically possible.
I never thought of it like that I guess I consider myself a trustworthy person. Deleting data right away is in my best interest at this point because it keeps my hosting down. Less datase usage and less AWS usage. I could put up a privacy policy but I doubt that would convince everybody.
Nice catch on the typo. Thanks for the color help. On my monitor it there's more contrast but I just tried it on some friends computers and I see what you mean.
I hate to say it, but I'd try to find a new domain if possible.
With domain hacks like this, They feel a bit dated, but worse, I never remember where the splits are.
Sec.ret.ly?
Se.cret.ly?
S.ecret.ly?
Also, how big is the use case? I don't think one load URLs are something I'd ever really want. What if they accidentily closed it?
And it doesn't prevent sharing, since they could just save it and re-upload..
Basically, either I trust them, or I don't. I don't see where a one-use URL helps.
I think the best use-case is when you're chatting with someone and want to quickly send them something you wouldn't want to send unencrypted. A password or some image of a prototype. Instead of posting it to a public site and just waiting to delete the image, or text.
As for the domain, my goal was to keep it as short as possible. The root domain cret.ly works as well so I could just downplay the "se." to prevent confusion.
