Where can I get free code reviews?


I have built some personal projects. I have used https://codereview.stackexchange.com/ and some tools as well. Are there similar platforms where I can get code reviews for the entire project? (people with similar interests) P2P or something similar.

Note that doing proper/full code reviews requires know-how in the code's problem domain and the specific project's background and needs. "Outsiders" reviewing code can comment on programming-language-specific issues, suggest alternative algorithms, and that sort of thing, but they will largely lack the project-specific know-how to determine whether the code actually achieves its goals in the larger constellation of the whole project. Very few random passers-by are going to be willing to dive into another random person's project to get to know the problem at that sort of level. i guess what i'm saying is that random people superficially poking at your code cannot be considered a full-fledged review.
