Why are there no small photo sharing apps
There is an opportunity here
"You can see the Hudson from here", she said.
I could. I thought. 'Yes' I said.
"That's what I keep on doing these days", she said.
"That is not a bad thing", I said.
The view really was nice.
"I loved the pictures you had sent yesterday. Nice decorations!" I said.
"Yes. Yes. Took time. But turned out real nice! I don't put things online. I just message whoever I want to share it with" she said.
And I thought, where have I heard that before?
There are no socials where you could share pictures with your loved ones. Pictures, messages. I guess WhatsApp is that? In a way.
Facebook and Instagram used to be that. A long time. Now, our timelines are filled with AI slop. Everything is engagement bait. Instagram is filled with influencers wanting to sell you stuff. In fact, all of Instagram is nothing but a shopping app masquerading as a photo/video app.
I get that an organic, with no goal of maximising engagement, photo-sharing app might not be super-profitable. It might be good enough to sustain itself though. Somebody should make this app.
I am done with algorithmic timelines.
