People here are super negative for no reason. It looks like someone’s garage project, why does there have to be immediately an android app ?
I find the idea of tapping the phones to connect a nice one, it looks like a unique feature, but i also think that’s not enough to make people want to use it.
Actually it will serve as both, a reason to use it, and maybe even a stronger one not to.
With services like this, you need some critical mass of people to get it off the ground, and i don’t see how he can achieve that without some strong capital making the push(and yes, it does need the android version for that to happen). The social network market seems quite saturated already - unless you have something amazing your competitor can’t add in a week, i don’t see it happening.

Because back then Friendster was the leading social media site in Southeast Asia, and later it got dumped as people went to Facebook, beginning with the games. That the people who grew up with it are now mostly on Android phones.

There do exist people who are trying to get out of toxic social media networks run by supervillains, and looking for alternatives asides from Mastadon. While it’s so tempting to think the guy who bought the domain name and trademarks could do something, I doubt his project could fly given his previous Medium posts.
