Considering the epidemic of loneliness facing the USA, this seems like a well-timed product... but does it work?

Hey @chrismessina, I was working on the same problem statement for a while where I created a zone too but it feels like people still believe a boy and girl can't be friends. People make professional friends but making a new friend in adulthood is hard.

I was hopeful but from the images I'm about twice as old and the wrong gender for their focus. Will I find other near-grampas on there or will I just be a weirdo?

I think the idea of separating it from the dating app is a good move, makes it more specific and lines are less blurred.

Interesting twist to a social media platform. I think there’s a strong demand for something like that as mainstream social media is falling out of favour and failing to deliver on similar promises

Big fan of bumble, congrats on this launch iteration. Let me know if you guys need computer vision integration!

I've been working in a new city this summer, and a product like this is exactly what I need. Establishing a social network is so important, and this is the perfect stepping stone to do so. Thank you and good luck to the makers :)

Finally somewhere to just find people to vibe with! How different would you say this is from the BFF section of bumble?
