Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

I was active on Hood app, for quite some time before it turned into another platform where people put in their fantasies?! It was again pseudonymous, and eventually the trend died, their DAU/MAU started to drop. What's something that will make a user sticky in a pseudonymous network?

How's this different from Blind/Hood app?

Product Owner

Zorro rebranded to Hood but don't know anyone using it. The early days are fun because it's full of gossip but it can leave you feeling very negative after a while. Wdyt?

Will grapevipe survive?

Growth Manager

Bc I am wondering how they did ask for 600 crs valuation with such content? Looks like they’ve hired Interns to keep up the engagement. That Gobar guy from twt should stop shitposting and do something about this app Instead.

Hood App - Weird content.

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!

BTW what's the demography of people who use these apps? Asking coz I don't use insta or short content apps😅

According to its LinkedIn page, Chingari has around 240 employees, which means it has laid off around 48 employees.

I really liked the concept. It has best of both worlds. Easiest way to create content is audio, and consume is text.

However, I think it will suffer because it might not promote controversial stuff or negative comments.

Humans have a negativity bias. Name-calling, insults or blind hate, are things that no one likes - but also things that no one can look away from. And those engaged in it can't easily pull away. 

One of the reasons why Grapevine is so good because in an anonymous forum, people might be less likely to step in and stop negative behavior. People either promote propaganda of one company or to spread shit about other companies.


Even X is infamous for rewarding conflict. Most negative comments come from anon folks. elafda get the best engagement.  


The audio first social media app Airchat has a second order effect that people can write way more mean shit than say it aloud. Plus it's not natively anon. 

I really wish it does work, in a world where there's so much negativity, we need airchat to thrive.

Why Airchat might not work

Director Product

The Indian microblogging site Koo has shut down. Reminds me of a conversation with an ex-founder along the lines of “Startups are a hard business. But even within startups, social networks are the hardest businesses to build” 
What do you think of Koo
