Idk what’s this app for

it’s meant to be an app to make gay friends but really it’s just a bunch of guys posting thirst traps haha

@raghdan I mean yeah seems like it … lol

It was also supposed to bring together gay creatives and build a community for them as well. And it was working… until all the thirst traps. We had a lot of creative engagement at first but then it just dwindled down because guys will make an effort to comment over abs but not to actually be part of a conversation in other subjects.

To meet me 🙋

@carrie_brad.shar collective, like instagram in its early days, wasn’t always about thirst traps. sure, gay culture often leans toward being sexual or overtly sexy, but that’s not all it has to be. for example, i post about my sobriety journey, something i never felt comfortable doing on instagram, and i also post thirst traps. you can do both, just like you can join conversations on other topics or unfollow thirst trap accounts if you’d rather curate a completely different kind of social media experience. it’s a new app; remember, no one really knew how to use instagram at first either. i used to criticize my friends for posting selfies instead of sharing real moments, but over time everything found its place. the same will happen here. and if it doesn’t, it’s still a pleasant, niche space that’s worth using. just my two cents!
