What do you wish people understood better about Grapevine?

I met a friend last week, topic shifted to grapevine "Oh you haven't tried grapevine! You must it's great?! I show the app, while talking about how it is twitter+reddit+linkedin+facebook all in one. And he opens a post, says - Nice so people post logical stuff too * He had one of my posts open* Didn't tell him 🤭 Keeping anonymity safe and still spreading good word 🔥

How did you come to know about it? What made you download it? And why are you still using it? Building anything in social is so hard. I want to know how they got the users.

How did you bring it up in conversation? Asking for a friend 💁‍♀️

Hey folks, help me out a little here please. We were trying to rewrite the copy on our App Store and Play store pages. So instead of writing what I know about Grapevine - would love to pick and choose from what yall think. So how would you explain Grapevine to a friend?

It’s therapeutic because you can share different aspects of your life that you can’t talk about on other platforms. For instance, you can't criticize the Ola CEO on LinkedIn, demand justice for the Kolkata rape case on Twitter without getting a notice from the Kolkata police, or express unhappiness on Instagram because that’s not the vibe of that platform. But on Grapevine, you can do all of this and more. Funny enough, I’ve been able to analyze different aspects of my personality (and all my different personalities). My brain works a lot, I talk a lot, and I think a lot. Over the past year, I've realized I see things very differently than how society, media, or authorities expect me to. Grapevine has been a tool for understanding myself better. I can share a thought, and maybe 15 people will respond—some agreeing, some disagreeing, and a few might even call me names. But that’s okay, that’s just how they function. All part of self-discovery. Another thing I appreciate about Grapevine is that it removes the halo effect we often have. Our names, colleges, and companies are masked (some who haven't revealed them), reducing the blurring of judgments. We connect with people on a more human-to-human level. Grapevine is great if you're looking to find a partner, lover, or simply make new friends and expand your network. You can be yourself, and the people who know you here often know you better than those you meet at college, work, or even within your family.

Hey folks, update to the latest app to get everything below :)

Why does this community work? Or should I ask, does it really work? Why do people post on it? It could have been just another subreddit of anonymity was the only factor playing here. Do you guys crave for grapes (currency)? What makes you come back and open this app time and again? Just trying to understand the community psychology here.

Hey Folks, I thought I should do an AMA specially after yesterday’s rumours that I have been laid off from Grapevine - this isn’t true 😂. It is however true that I have been PIPed and have a much reduced role now xD To be serious: Happy to answer any Grapevine questions that you may have. Features, ideas, questions on why we do what we do welcome - I’ll answer what I can! Cheers!
