sadly it isn’t terribly effective because there’s way too much friction when it comes to local interaction
two people have to like each other first before they can even say hi? that’s like … literally the opposite of how meeting people works though???
that isn’t to say that DMs should be unlocked but rather that there oughtta be a localized/proximity public channel where you can just sorta microblog to the void and others who are nearby enough to see it can comment.
i’d call that system “howling”.
kinda like the twilight bark from the old animated 101 Dalmatians movie _
I use barq!

Is it like Grindr (eg, mostly male + hookups)?
For anyone, like me, who has (well had, now) no idea what barq is
It probably has real good security though
You could sorta Yik yak before you join a herd?
