Like millions of others I went to check it out because the startup of a new social network is exciting.
It sucks. Mostly because of Instagram migration all of the spam and grift is there on day 1.
There's also this fake "positivity" vibe that they're trying to promote that is so fake and shallow with literally zero backup how would it be encouraged or grown despite "be positive" sort of sham messages.
Major disappointment. It literally does nothing new.
Yeah that fake positivity came from Instagram. It's like staring at an alternate reality.
25 million spambots, 5 million users.
Or...
It is actually fairly popular. I'm sure there are more than a few bots, but a pretty huge chunk of people I actually know have been active on it.
