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.
@BiryaniEnthu so well said. Exactly the same thoughts. The GV folks have done awesome job. 🤌
That's why I like anonymous social so much! And the great thing is grapevine has a fantastic user base as compared to other anonymous social media.
when i read this my first thought was like "are you promoting and casually saying that grapevine is great and you should keep using grapevine?" then my second thought was like "grapevine is actually good for networking, asking for help, sharing thoughts where war won't start like reddit in comment section, and some wholesome people and thoughts" (till now)
😁
I have been on grapevine for some months now and this is the best community building app I have ever seen I can talk my heart out and the people here actually come out to support and share their journey and experiences as well. Hats off ...
Randomly thinking over lunch, I saw my screen time and Grapevine is consistently increasing Was wondering if it same for others, and if yes - how?
Visiting the app, seeing posts from across topics by people who are sort of mostly like-aged feels very very good
Its even better for people who are a bit shy and find it hard to converse irl!
Visiting grapevine at least once a day ha...
