Hi all, Andrew here. I hate smalltalk[1] but love deep conversations and want more of them, for myself and for others. This is why I made pairup.social. It's a conversation-finding and friend-finding app based on the things you'd most like to talk about. Sure, you have your friends, colleagues and family you can talk to, but it can be hard to go deep on your unique interests. Finding and reaching out to people on the internet is possible, but in practice I find I don’t really do it that much. It’s a bit awkward. If I found them on a single-topic discussion group, I don’t know much else about…

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spreadvk.e... iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/the-new-elim/id6463781107 We know life can be busy. And we often struggle to make time for the people that matter most to us. According to a Harvard study from 2021, "36% of all Americans [...] feel “serious loneliness.”" [1] We created an app to help people focus on their most personal relationships and guide them through forming more meaningful connections with them, in the hopes to combat the "Loneliness Epidemic". We just…

PLATO5▲3Hi HN, I’m a solo founder who rebuilt my social app from the ground up after realizing something obvious: most “social” platforms are optimized for engagement, not real connection. Loneliness is rising, and I wanted to build something that actually helps people meet offline. PLATO5 is a social engine (not media) with one purpose: moving people from strangers to groupchat to IRL friendships all guided by AI to reduce reluctance and friction. Here’s how it works: 1. *Matching* Each day, users are matched into private groups of 4, based on the Big Five personality traits, interests, and…

I hope you are doing better today than yesterday. (TLDR in the comments; or enjoy my story :) ) Why: About 11 months ago, I launched my app for the first time on Reddit's r/lonely because I had previously experienced loneliness myself during grad school. I wanted to reach out to people going through similar experiences by providing them with what would’ve helped me in the past. I felt this was an important mission for me and a much more rewarding one than my day job that I quit my job to work on the app full-time. It was necessary because I did not come from a programming background. I…
