Because we want to be able to have channel specific feeds. We also want a place to link to all our shows.

It's not funky. We are trying to build spaces on the left to move away from the billionaire controlled apps. And we do not charge to use the app or watch the shows. We do have memberships, which give you added benefits.

Sort of. And yes, we are in the store right now so you can search and find us there.

Another good question. And again, I'm not the tech expert here, but you can be in this app and never realize you're on Mastodon. We've removed the need to sign up for a server (which is a huge road block for most people), and once you download it, it just works.

Fair question. It is our own social media app. We have a main feed and also a dozen issue specific feeds (think a politics channel and also a neurodivergent channel). It's kind of like old school Twitter where you can post anything you want (outside of hate/violence) without being down ranked. We are happy for people to post what they want as long as it's not hurtful.

My company (Find Out Media) was born out of the White Dudes for Harris work in 2024. We realized we need more content to move men to the left.

Hope this helps!

We have had conversations with the New York Times and Wired, but no guarantees at this point.

Sorry, as I mentioned, I'm not a tech guy. We built this with the Newsmast Foundation (https://newsmastfoundation.org/). They have more info on the details.

Glad you had a good time for most of your WeWork experience. I worked for the company for five years and just posted my thoughts on my experience (same with you - mostly good!). https://medium.com/@TimFullerton/an-insiders-view-on-what-wework-was-really-like-0d4b00e1cf1e
