I guess the anonymity it provides. More than reddit dare I say, since people can't check your posts and comments.

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

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 :)

Using image in comments feature 😁

P.S. My Grapevine time would be much more, I keep deleting and reinstalling app (like the relationship you cannot get over 🥲)

How's screen time looking for last week?

Is it just me or there has been a sudden surge of activity on grapevine? Posts are getting more comments.

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

Currently it seems like a WhatsApp group of ~ 15 people interacting with each other. Not sure how does the platform intends to grow

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

Grapevine Update: Grapes 2.0, more DMs and more Grapevines

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 🍻

Quick Update from the Grapevine team

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

why is grapevine lagging?

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

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!

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.

Welcome to Confessions's Private Community

People are active in Instagram and Facebook these days not on the apps like grapevine

TL;DR

We stay on the internet nowadays. I am doing so since 2009. From orkut to fb, Twitter to insta, WhatsApp to Tg and Quora to Reditt.

If u look closely all are Western apps, few entrepreneurs tried to make the Indian SM app but it turned cringe n toxic like hood etc.

I was silent reader here for 3m, then started interacting actively 5m back. Saw this platform evolving from 0 to 1. Hell a lot of improvement.

But what I loved maximum is how beautifully people help each other, from referral to rant, Job opening to layoff, CTC discussion to crazy comparison, love to hate, left to right, PM to Sde, Whitefield to Koramangala and what not...

We have everything on a tap from food to cab and dating to matrimonial still we are the unhappiest gen.

GrapeVine( thanks to @Micheal_Scott )kinda platform is helping to kill that loneliness and toxicity of one's life.

Always there to discuss and talk about semiconductors, ai, economy, philosophy, marketing, music n memes!

🥂 Cheers and have a nice day.

Keep smiling ☺️

Thank You Grapevine 🍇

Explained Grapevine to friend, now they think I am weird
I talked about everything from professional posts to emotional ones to layoffs to rants to salaries to grapes
They weren’t convinced, to put it subtly

I introduced well, but the conversation just veered off

Anyone else have a slightly awkward Grapevine conversation story than me? 
Any tips on how to share the app without scaring people off? 
I truly love Grapevine, and I want others to experience it too!

P.S. I remembered a recent question @BiryaniEnthu had asked, I feel I am part of that thread now 😂

What do you wish people understood better about Grapevine?

Welcome to Gadgets & Apps's Private Community

Well nowadays I am addicted to the grapevine app, so what about you?😝

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 do you end up using a platform like Grapevine?

Data Scientist

I feel a little bit of cribbing and gossiping in this platform helps us diffuse that tension built up during the weekdays.

The stress and pressure has to be released somewhere and the chatty grapevine has been a very helpful place to be to do so.

It also makes you empathetic.

Agree? Any Comments ?!

Has grapevine helped you  get relaxed and de-stress ?

Just curious to know how fellow PMs interact with this app.
What triggers you to check the app?

I just recently created an account here and I still haven't formed the internal nudge to check the app. Please feel free to tell me how it is going for you.

#AnonymityIsASuperPower
#CringeIsNotBad
#GossipsAreGold

What makes you come check Grapevine and how often?

The number of rants I have on this platform, had they been anywhere else (social media or real life), I would have definitely lost my job, friends, and followers. 

Grateful for Grapevine 🍇
