Show HN: Rebrain.gg – Doom learn, don't doom scroll

2026-02-18 @ 12:18:26Points: 26Comments: 9

I built https://rebrain.gg. It's a website which is intended to help you learn new things.

I built it for two reasons:

1. To play around with different ways of interacting with a LLM. Instead of a standard chat conversation, the LLM returns question forms the user can directly interact with (and use to continue the conversation with the LLM).

2. Because I thought it would be cool to have a site dedicated to interactive educational content instead of purely consuming content (which I do too much).

An example of a (useful-for-me) interactive conversation is: https://rebrain.gg/conversations/6. In it I'm learning how to use the `find` bash command. (Who ever knew to exclude a directory from a look-up you need to do `find . -path <path> -exclude -o <what you want to look for>`, where `-o` stands for "otherwise"!)

Still very early on, so interested in and open to any feedback.

Thanks!
