I agree we need a new private social platform. But, I hope it isn't Facebook that wins that race.

I've been working on a social network that I believe represents "generational change" - no ads, no clickbait news, no public profiles. It goes against the grain of what current social networks are doing.

It's still early days, but I would appreciate any feedback!

Hey I tried out your app, but I don’t understand how to use it at all, in fact there’s no information really at all on what it is. Maybe you could consider making a small tutorial when you first sign up? Also feel free to email me if you want to talk about it, I’m also working on a social app. Was this built in react native?

This seems to be everything that commenters on HN claim to want, but the $20 a year thing seems to be fundamentally incompatible with how social networks grow.
