Voices is simple. Just... 1. Speak about something that matters to you. 2. Receive, immediately, related Voices from real people. Testers have called it magic. But really, it's just surprisingly human. Something strange is happening too...

Feed-based social networks make it easy to scroll and mostly inappropriate to post (posting = broadcasting to everyone you know). by turning you into a single-minded consumer, they make: 1. advertisers money 2. you depressed

For the sake of society and each of our lives, let's all put our time into spaces that value intention over attention. Into diners. Into notebooks. Into bonfires, libraries, cafes, picnics, weddings... and when you're online, into @plexusearth .

It's getting better as it gets bigger. Most social networks get worse. When central feeds bloat, intimacy fades. But Voices has no central feed. The only effect of more people is better voice-connections... connections that begin to feel supernatural. So...

I've seen several Twitter clones lately. While it's nice they're not led by Zuck/Elon/Trump, I worry that all follower-based networks will suffer from low participation + superficial content. It's why we're making a new kind of social network ( @notesthatthink )...

Early members have been sharing more, and more vulnerably, than in other digital spaces. They offer hope that, in online communities of the future, authenticity can be normal & month-altering connections can be routine.

At Plexus, we're building a network around a new way of sharing. When you “post” a thought in Plexus, it only goes to people who have relevant thoughts. It's a way to engage w/ the people most likely to care w/o spamming uninterested followers.
