a more healthy social app for personal development, making rituals and habits with 51 friends
Hi all, I’m working on this app folksable, I felt that this subreddit may have ideal initial users for the app which you also might like.
The idea is that a user can create a ritual (a periodic action for eg. reading book every friday at 8 pm) and on each such periodic event they get notified to which they post a picture of themselves doing that action to their close 51 friends which acts as a proof-of-work for your habit.
By doing that a social contract is formed which is powerful to change a human behavior, btw there are apps that’s let us make social habits (for eg. kin app) but they don’t have this posting a picture of themselves doing it. which I myself wanted and search for and finally decided to make one.
Why am I working on it ?
Gen Z has gone through teenaging with all the social media rise from facebook, myspace to today snapchat, instagram and I’m one of those who has seen it all and understands the effects of them and what they do to self-esteem and mindset of a person in their young age.
It is a well known fact that everything anybody achieves anything in life had worked on it for thousands of hours but instagram and current architecture of social media makes it looks like as one night success and gives a sense of disconnect among people where in reality everybody can get what they want with their time and this app encourages people to post their boring way to success which many people don’t find interesting but that’s how over period of years get people what they want.
The overall the idea is to create a healthy social media where I’m proud to recommend it to my kids (when I grow up). users don’t have more than 51 friends (avg size of a class) but their public rituals can have many followers, the reasoning behind 51 is that in a given phase of a human’s life is that it is better to have fewer quality relationships rather than millions of diluted relationships.
I’m not a spammer, I genuinely thought you people may be interested in something like this, if you do like please join [r/folksable](https://www.reddit.com/r/folksable/) where we form a group of pre-launch users to get early access and feedback, thank you.
