I strongly prefer dark mode here,  
 Btw, I use light mode in intellij :)

Light mode  
 But I have seen engineers around me being allergic to light (in our office or within our app :p )

Dark mode and what is wrong with you mode.

Which mode of light do you all usually prefer when using Grapevine?  For some reason it's light mode for me 😅 I usually prefer dark mode for every app that I have but for Grapevine light mode feel...

Which mode of light do you all usually prefer when using Grapevine?

For some reason it's light mode for me 😅 I usually prefer dark mode for every app that I have but for Grapevine light mode feels much better. I don't know why 🤔

Some Grapeviners recently pointed out to me that GV dark mode is not very good... 
What should we fix? If there's any feedback and thoughts, do share.

Feedback on Grapevine Dark Mode

Finally see myself getting a good habit for a change!
That 'Explain me like I'm 5' feels like a feature made for me 🤭
That Streak fire glows brighter with every news, I'm gonna get streaks of streaks now 💪

P.S. Thank you for the early access, felt like I'm celebrity ❤️

P.P.S. It reminded of AI + VC joke (sorry 🙊) but this product has the power to rake in that 💰

Point out features that can be worked upon at Grapevine.

I really like grapevine but I mostly surf it on the web, so I just wanted to share few points that would enhance the experience.

1. Dark mode 
2. Make the post open in new tab( i can't see "open in a new tab" option on right click)
3. Get rid of the get the grapevine component on the right side, it can take a small space on the top right or bottom right, it doesn't have to take so much space IMO.

These are all the changes that I would like to see, i just felt it'd be more visible here rather than on google play review 

what are the changes you all would like to see?

Grapevine Feedback?

Pardon me for being so naive here. I want to understand this new type of startup trend.
1. What’s the source of motivation for their employees to stick to their jobs?
2. How do apps like these think of monetizing? There is no ad, no paid feature per say.
3. Grapevine has probably built some kind of a platform. But how is this different from platforms like twitter, facebook or any other social media platform?
4. How much money do you think has been invested into building apps like this?
5. The DAU of this app based on my wild guess must be around 5K. I may be completely wrong here.
6. What according to you is the current valuation of grapevine?
7. Saumil Tripathi, the founder of grapevine is ex-google employee as per his LinkedIn profile. There is no mention of any other any other startup he owns. 
8. Grapevine has a team of 10 employees (as per Saumil’s post a few weeks back)
How do these guys make money?

I’m awestruck by the guys working in grapevine. Building an app of this quality with no monetization in sight!

Pounce on this thread with your thoughts guys!

Grapevine is a free app. How do they run their startup?

Hey folks,
 
Happy friday!
 
What this post is: a place to hang around and chat just about anything - without having a specific topic to discuss.  
Think of it like the watercooler at your office.  
 
Look forward to hearing from you all :)

Daily Watercooler (30th June)

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

Currently I am discovering gv. I am loving it. You don't get doxxed(🤞) + you get to chat and converse with others like it's a WhatsApp group. 
Kinda love this. 
Is this just me? or 👀
If so, then what is the idea of social media. To bring more people to a platform or make it a limited area where you don't get to be toxic and making the space enjoyable

Grapevine

Why is Grapevine home page loading by default to “sort by popular” posts? 🧐😊

Private Equity

I am just curious how GV team landed at the current UX after making all those changes - masking identity in feed, smaller font, more empty spaces, removing insights on comment, notifications. 

Was this to make it consistent with web design? 
Any significant changes in output metrics?

How GV team decided on the current UX(iOS)?

Product Manager

How and when do you use Grapevine app in office? I am sometimes scared with the orange screen while opening the app that someone from Compliance or Legal may identify.

Strategy & Operations

Welcome to News Discussion's Private Community

Hey Folks, Happy Friday!

We wanted to share what we've been up to, so you know what to expect from the app in the next 1-2 months. 

1. Bugs: We are hard at work trying to solve all the bugs that have slowly crept into Grapevine 😶

2. DMs: A polite way for users to take a few conversations deeper, and share referrals/resumes if they want to. A key worry for us would be to not make this spammy (like a few users pointed out on a recent post), while still staying helpful. 

3. Experience: A smoother, more fluid app experience coming soon

4. Moderation: As posts and comments on Grapevine increase in number - there's also a small 0.1% of users that sometimes post abusive/offensive content. We're taking these issues more seriously. We read every 'report' that you share with us and take action appropriately

5. Grapevine on Web (I swear the first build is super exciting - I'm typing this post out on an early version of Grapevine Web 😉). This should allow people to browse Grapevine while in a boring meeting 😂

6. Salaries: We're building something exciting for better salary information 💰

7. Verification: You may have seen some users on Grapevine are now verified with a blue check. Currently only launched for employees of 3 companies, we'll launch this soon for more companies. This is how we'll raise the bar on trust within Grapevine. And no, we never plan to charge for blue ticks like some other platforms. It's just a darn image ☑️

Please do keep sending your awesome feedback at us, as always! Cheers 🍻
