It has really good potential

This app is such a refreshing change in social media. Seeing how black creators arent being suppressed or ignored for once is so nice, and the idea of using loves so creators get paid much faster than other platforms is really smart. I feel like this format of using paid for hearts is probably the way to go for short form content and I love this concept. My biggest issue with the app is the performance and the discoverability. There currently isn’t any algorithm for finding new posts/creators on your home page (it orders posts by your followers by time on your home page) and the discover page isn’t that nice to use either. The app also tends to crash more than other apps and it takes a whole minute to load the comments section for a post. Taking photos in app also feels very limited compared to other social media apps. I feel like this app is going to be one of the top platforms with time, because no other platform is doing this type of format that I think is the best way to create short form content for money. I feel like this app needs more polishing and needs more people but with time, this could be the best social media app for content creators and fans alike.

Needs Some Improvement

Well I know the app is fairly new but it seemed to be working better for me in the beginning than it is now. All of my notifications disappeared for some reason. Also since the carousel posting feature doesn’t yet exist (hopefully it will eventually) I’ve been posting a trio of pics at a time to get more of my content seen. Today I posted but it only allowed me to post 2 of my 3 pics/videos so I’m stuck waiting to be able to post the 3rd pic in my series before I can move forward w/ the next series of pictures.
Also the app is not registering certain pics in my library, maybe it has something to do w/ the size? I’m having to take screenshots of pics already existing in my phone’s library & then I have to edit/trim them & those are the ones Fanbase is accepting for my posts. I don’t like having to do the extra work just to post. Not sure what is going on but I hope this can be fixed soon & my notifications can be restored & hopefully in the meantime I won’t have any additional issues. I’ve already tried rebooting my phone to no avail 🤷🏽‍♀️ The app has a lot of potential but definitely needs a broader user base, I guess it will take a minute for people to catch on. On the plus side, I definitely appreciate that they are not unnecessarily censoring people just because they may not agree with their point of view. Thank you.

Promising

Interface is amazing. Familiar design. Amazing concept and “super” necessary. Empowers the users without algorithms in the background limiting the outreach of content creators.

My only concern is that the content on the explore page isn’t filtered enough to be safe for the minds of young teenagers. The default algorithm for the explore page displays a quite a bit of images of women in swimsuits or videos dancing provocatively (10 seconds on the explore page displayed women riding a mechanical bull twerking).

I believe that if there was a way to make the default algorithm a bit safer for the minds of young teenagers this app could easily surpass other social media platforms.

Since other apps are heavily ad driven they secretly control what user see so there is a fine line between controlling users and filtering users.

Maybe the content can have a rating system applied similar to movies, or tv shows? Obviously the users will eventually decide what they subscribe to no matter what system is in place. I think it would just be a case of due diligence since other social media apps have had to answer to Congress for some of the content on their own platforms.

Either way this app has a ton of potential and provides an opportunity for users to benefit from subscriptions which is 🔥🔥🔥.

5 stars from me!
