Also, how does one even go about marketing a nonprofit social media app, meant for good / generating stats, and discussion out in the world? ๐Ÿค”

#Marketing people, if you're interested in sharing your expertise please do offer some advice!

Two year anniversary of the hackathon project that started the RTR website!

My IRL friend just got followed by THE John Cena on Xwitter says that is why he can't leave the platform.

Can some famous John follow me here on @bsky.app so I can have a sick clap back tomorrow?

Maybe @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social? That'd be sweet ๐Ÿค“

Today I would like to publicly thank one of my dearest friends for some of the wisest words I've ever heard uttered from a human being.

(2/2) At least then the experts, politicians, and community leaders can truly know where people are at and meet them where they're at.

That's what we're building @read-theroom.bsky.social but it only works if we do it together.

(1/2) I always imagined what a decentralized and truly democratic UN would look like.

What if we all really knew how the masses felt; without the top-down media, or algorithm-driven silo-ing feeds online telling us.

What would that look like... Would the masses be correct more often than not?

We canโ€™t thank this community enough for the support, energy, and love youโ€™ve already shown.

The more you download, rate & review, the more rooms we can read.

Hereโ€™s to building Read the Room together, this is just the beginning! ๐ŸฆŽโœจ

I'm actually trying to buiild something similar, but for decentralized sentiment gauging as opposed to fact-checking!

Please check it out if you're interested, and let me know what you think!

As a physicist, this was a really funny question for me to see on @read-theroom.bsky.social on day 2 of launch week.

How old do you think the universe is? Clearly my physics friends all agree... Sus?? ๐Ÿง
