I built a no-AI, human-only social network focused on ONLY one thing - keeping people connected.
I'd stepped away from mainstream social media last year due to the overwhelming negativity, privacy violation, etc. Then around early this year, I started to feel I was missing updates from people who actually matter in my life. Instead of going back to traditional platforms, I decided to create a simple solution myself.
The platform emphasizes:
- No AI algorithms or content manipulation
- No infinite scrolling designed to trap your attention
- A simple interface for sharing life updates with close connections (Text and Photos only for now)
We've intentionally made connecting difficult: no user search and no friend suggestions - you only connect with people you already know and care about.

I'd love to hear how this approach resonates with the HN community, particularly from those who've also grown tired of traditional social media.
