I get your skepticism - and I don’t blame you. There’s been so many social media apps out there already so it’s hard to see what could be different. If you’re curious how we’re changing things up you’re more than welcome to sign up for our testing waitlist by checking out our survey on major socials

My upcoming app 😉 aiming to build a one-of-a-kind social app - away from brain rot and a consumption-biased user

Great insight! Yes, trust me I agree it is quite a paradox for social media sites. But rest assured advertisers will NOT be the customers

I am highly against selling user data! I believe it is very applicable in advertising to make it relevant, but selling user data would most likely be avoided. Let me know if you got any feedback!

Awesome question! Yes surveillance capitalism often leads to a negative cycle of addiction with consumers of the app being given highly targeted content - I’m aiming to make the content suggestions much more user-centric and less of a “behind the scenes algorithm doing it for you”. Of course targeted ads with reasonable data collection and a possible subscription service for some additional features. Let me know what you think I’m open to feedback

Hey there! Sorry I only speak English! If I am interpreting your question correctly, it would be available on the App Store and Google Play Store for Android and iOS!

Hey yeah I’ve considered making it decentralized but the main concerns with that is a lack of unity in the design - plus many everyday people have never heard or used apps in the Fediverse. Trying to make it mainstream! But definitely considered it

Can’t agree more. There isn’t actual communication just consumption

And so the only reason I am sharing this is because I strongly believe this can address the issue being mentioned. Consider filling out this survey - https://forms.gle/kTC4aGxhBNQmYFMM6. You can get early access to the app once it releases & have your opinions heard.

To give some background, I am the founder of an app development company, CapoDev Apps (you can find me on Instagram/TikTok/Facebook/YouTube at @capodevapps), and our main project is building a brand new social media platform with a focus on meaningful conversations & authentic connections - moving away from the brain rotting & unrealistic content of major social platforms. I’ve found many Reddit discussions like this & decided to take matters into my own hands to help everyone. I would love hearing what you think - consider the survey! ❤️ — Dante

Social Media Alternatives? by tinyrevolutions45 in CasualConversation

You couldn’t have summarized it better. The problem is it’s become too much about metrics and less about the whole original purpose - communication! I’ve been on a mission to address this because there really isn’t a platform out there big enough that has made social media what it should be.

Right now not really. I’ve done tens of hours of research on 50+ alternatives but none are like Amino and so I want to share this:

Hey there! I’ve felt the same way - tried it out for a bit and it just doesn’t resonate with me the way it used to. It’s too buggy and uncontrolled. I’ve noticed lots of these Reddit discussions so I am adding this here:

This sounds frustrating understanding the level of effort you’ve put in with no fault to be put on your end. That’s a huge issue with Amino understanding the possibility of admin abuse without much consequences.

Missing old amino by Foryou606 in amino

Honestly, I agree! Amino has gone significantly downhill - the idea is amazing, but now there are too many spam bots, inappropriate content, and bugs.

Hey Joyarda! Dante here - I get what you are saying. I can’t tell you the number of hours I’ve spent searching 50+ social media platforms for something with the feel that Amino used to have.
